Support cross-Amazon policy initiatives, working with public policy, public relations, and business leadership to align positions on emerging trust and safety issues.
A day in the life
In a typical day you might interpret a newly introduced online safety bill and assess which Amazon services are affected, meet with a product team to advise on compliance controls for a content moderation workflow, draft a position document on an emerging regulatory issue for business and public policy stakeholders, and collaborate with legal colleagues across jurisdictions to align on a cross-Amazon compliance approach. You will work across many teams and many threads simultaneously.
