Job description

Are you customer obsessed, data‑driven, and energized by problems where financial rigor, automation, and trust intersect? Do you want to own a product that ensures every dollar Amazon moves is accurate, auditable, and defensible while operating in a highly regulated environment? If so, we have an exciting opportunity for you.

We are looking for a Senior Product Manager to own the vision, strategy, and roadmap for a strategic controllership and compliance product spanning our emerging markets. Amazon moves billions in payment volume across these markets each year and pays significant fees to processors, acquirers, and networks. Your mission is to establish complete automated controllership so that every fee charged by every processor across every fee type is validated against contracted rates in real time with zero reliance on manual reconciliation and to ensure the whole system meets the highest bar for compliance and trust.

As the single‑threaded owner you will define what we build and why. You will partner deeply with engineering, finance, accounting, legal, compliance, risk, and regulatory teams to turn complex evolving requirements into simple, reliable, and scalable capabilities. You will be equally comfortable diving deep into fee taxonomies, reconciliation logic, and regulatory frameworks as you are zooming out to articulate a multi‑year product vision to senior leadership. The ideal candidate is a builder who treats controllership and compliance not as constraints but as features, sources of durable trust. You will need strong judgment, the ability to influence without authority, and the tenacity to drive clarity.
