Job summary

Amazon is seeking a Problem Management Program Owner to design, build, and govern the mechanisms that enable organizational leaders to be effective problem managers across corporate IT infrastructure.

You will use ServiceNow and internal tools to meet the needs of your customers, drive adoption across organizational leaders, and continuously improve the program based on adoption data, trend analysis, and participant feedback.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of program or project management experience.
• Experience using data and metrics to determine and drive improvements.
• Experience working cross functionally with tech and non-tech teams.
• Experience building cross-functional partnerships and influencing stakeholders across the organization to act without having a direct reporting relationship.
• Familiarity with problem management frameworks (ITIL or equivalent) - enough to design a program, not just execute one.
• Experience establishing governance cadences and driving accountability for corrective actions across distributed teams.

Responsibilities

• Design, build, and continuously improve the problem management program - define the end-to-end framework (process, tooling, templates, governance) that enables CIS vertical leaders to run effective problem management.
• Drive adoption, enablement, and accountability - coach organizational leaders and remove barriers so service owners internalize problem management as a core operating discipline.
• Build cross-vertical mechanisms - create escalation paths, shared tooling (ServiceNow workflows, dashboards), and coordination forums for problems that span multiple verticals.
• Develop metrics and executive reporting - define indicators that quantify program health and produce leadership-ready narratives on program adoption, remediation closure, defect reduction, and service reliability improvement.
• Own institutional knowledge - maintain the known-error database and best-practice documentation that program participants draw from.
