DESCRIPTION

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is building a world-class marketing organization, and we are looking for a Senior Technical Program Manager (TPM) to help us build measurement and optimization capabilities to fuel the marketing team’s performance and growth.

You will play a crucial role in driving the execution of complex scientific programs involving machine learning models, artificial intelligence systems, and causal econometric analyses, and engineering systems to scale these solutions. You will coordinate cross-functional teams of engineers, scientists, product managers, and business stakeholders to successfully deliver these high-impact measurement programs. This involves developing detailed plans, schedules, milestones, and risk mitigation strategies. You will identify dependencies and enable seamless collaboration between the teams building the AI/ML models, defining product requirements, providing data-driven insights, and driving business adoption. You will also be responsible for building optimal processes by collaborating with leadership team members to execute strategic initiatives across marketing campaign management and workflow automation. Overall, your expertise will drive strategic alignment, process efficiency, and successful project outcomes within our organization.

This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of AWS Marketing through cutting-edge AI/ML technology and data-driven insights. To be successful in this role, you need to be analytical and technical enough to know the science+engineering systems to independently make informed decisions in discussions with customers (and not overly rely on the team in each discussion). If you are passionate about driving cross-functional, cross-team innovation with large-scale impact, we would love to hear from you.

Key job responsibilities
* Collaborate with partner teams and stakeholders to translate strategic initiatives into actionable plans.
* Translate strategic objectives into actionable plans for scientific programs leveraging AI, ML, and econometrics
* Design, optimize, and implement operational processes aligned with strategic objectives.
* Evaluate and enhance existing processes to improve efficiency and effectiveness.
* Identify and mitigate risks associated with strategic initiatives.
* Define key performance indicators (KPIs) and establish reporting mechanisms via QBRs/MBRs
* Foster relationships with internal and external stakeholders for successful program outcomes.
* Coordinate with cross-functional teams (engineering, product, BI, science) for project execution.
* Act as a facilitator/trainer to enable adoption of team’s tools and processes.
