Job summary

Amazon seeks a Seattle-based Senior Technical Program Manager to own the cross‑boundary capability alignment between India and the global teams that build our three businesses. You will represent India in global planning, maintain a single view of capability adoption, and advocate for India's priorities with data-supported cases.

This high‑visibility role involves sequencing cross‑team dependencies, securing funding for India-specific customization, and coordinating the localization of global

Qualifications

• 5+ years of technical product or program management experience.
• 7+ years working directly with engineering teams.
• 3+ years of software development experience.
• 5+ years of technical program management working directly with software engineering teams experience.
• Experience managing programs across cross functional teams, building processes and coordinating release schedules.

Responsibilities

• Own the capability-inclusion mechanism: Represent India in global product planning, requirements, and design reviews from the outset — converting today's informal, ad-hoc process into a governed, repeatable intake across all three businesses.
• Run a single view of capability adoption: Maintain source of truth for the full portfolio of tracked capabilities across the three businesses, with dependency maps and effort sizing, and represent it in global planning and review forums.
• Sequence cross-team dependencies: Untangle the multi-team dependency chains that cause launches to slip, coordinating across engineering, product, finance/compliance, and operations teams.
• Negotiate funding and execution ownership for India-specific customization work, including the last-mile localization required to bring global capabilities to market in India.
• Advocate for India's priorities in global planning, escalating structural blockers to the right leaders with clear, data-backed cases — particularly where India is deprioritized despite its strategic value.
• Establish the baseline and reporting that measure adoption progress and inform how the function scales over time.
• Partner deeply with the teams building Amazon's newest products and business models, ensuring India's needs are reflected early and that new capabilities reach the market efficiently.
• A day in the life: You start your morning with AI as your co-pilot — using Amazon's internal generative-AI tools to scan overnight changes across the global product roadmaps for all three businesses, summarize what moved, and surface the handful of new capabilities where India isn't yet in the design conversation.
• Mid-morning sessions with product teams, aligning India into their next release, and preparing executive reviews for a single view of capability adoption across three businesses.
• In the afternoon you unblock a stalled dependency, align sequencing and funding, and steer a multi‑continent rollout of a high‑value capability for India.
• You close the day with AI drafting escalations, modeling dependency sequences, and building data-backed cases for prioritizing India.
