Description

　　Amazon is looking for a passionate, talented, and well organized Principal Technical Program Manager (TPM) to help build retail technology products. The TPM will be responsible for the product development life cycle and will work with large teams of 60+ engineers and product managers.

　　The right candidate for this role is someone who has both a strong technical background, and either technical management or program/product management background. You must be comfortable working with both service-oriented architectures, and large, complex data sets. You must have a diverse set of unblocking tools and mechanisms, resulting in an ability to cultivate relationships and earn trust with teams both inside and outside of your overall organization. You must be able to thrive in both start-up and more mature business environments, be truth seeking, and be willing to not only operate strategically, but be willing to roll up your sleeves to get the job done yourself. No idea is too big for you to consider, and no task is too small for you to deliver on.
