Key job responsibilities
Manage full lifecycle of complex cross-functional, tech and automation-related programs with considerable impact across multiple organizations
Identify, prototype, and scale AI-assisted automation solutions: build proof-of-concept workflows using GenAI/LLM tooling and AI workflow builders, validate them against real operational use cases, and partner with engineering teams to productionize
Lead scoping for cross-team AI opportunities, including evaluating external solutions for ROC applicability and assessing how ROC-built tools can scale to other teams and business units
Partner with engineering, legal, and security stakeholders to ensure AI solutions minimize risk through reliable performance, human-in-the-loop design where appropriate, and standardized integration with the existing tech stack
Work with various stakeholders to identify goals, roadblocks, gaps, and solutions, with a bias toward automation-first solution design
Ensure stakeholder policy documentation needs are met internally and externally for our customers' needs
Develop the overall program strategy (mission, vision, tenets), set objectives, and drive improvements that are quantified with metrics, tactically driving teams in and outside of your organization to deliver
Work autonomously in an ambiguous environment, seeking to understand business problems, automation limitations (including where LLMs are and are not the right tool), scaling factors, boundary conditions, and reasons behind leadership decisions
Partner with teams across the business you support and beyond to source, allocate, and coordinate resources
Partner with internal/external teams and engineering teams to determine what projects move forward and in what priority order, with prioritization grounded in data
Oversee gaps between teams, processes, and systems, helping teams reduce exposure to classic failure modes (e.g., requirements not sufficiently understood or documented, ineffective cross-team collaboration, long-term impact(s) from third-party solutions, security not considered, insufficient stakeholder review, etc.)
Solve ambiguous problems and proactively identify and mitigate risks before they become roadblocks
Work with program managers, business leaders, and the executive team to communicate and impact critical business initiatives
Develop, implement, and govern Key Performance Indicator (KPI) reporting for a portfolio of programs, providing visibility to milestones and performance across all projects, including quantified automation impact (e.g., work items deflected, handle-time reduction, decision accuracy)
Engage other Amazon business units globally to share AI automation best practices and improve end-to-end outcomes for Amazon customers
Favor automation over human intervention; pursue and deliver enhancements that eliminate the need for manual communication and improve quality
Prioritize long-term vision over short-term return
Core understanding of intra-day operations and the broader supply chain middle mile network
A day in the life
The Tech and Operations Integration Senior Program Manager will focus on developing strategy to scale the ATS middle mile network through AI-driven automation and technology standardization. A typical week blends builder work and program work: prototyping an LLM-assisted workflow for a Disruption Management use case, advancing a validated solution toward production with engineering partners, reviewing automation performance metrics with operations stakeholders, aligning with product on the WIMs roadmap, and presenting program status and risk mitigation plans to senior leadership. This Program Manager works between product, engineering, and operations, acting as a liaison to drive continuous improvement on behalf of internal and external Amazon customers.
About the team
