We are looking for a strong software manager to join the AWS Governance team.
Are you passionate about transforming complex technical challenges into elegant, automated solutions that empower customers to leverage innovative technology? Do you thrive on building highly scalable systems that process massive amounts of data and deliver actionable insights through advanced analytics, machine learning, and AI assisted learning? We are looking for a strong software manager to join the AWS Governance team.
AWS CloudTrail is a foundational service that monitors and records API and user activity across your AWS services, giving you complete visibility and control over storage, analysis, and remediation actions. AI agents are already making decisions, invoking APIs, and moving data across AWS — and today, no one can fully observe, audit, or govern what they do.
We are looking for an experienced Manager who will be responsible for driving and advancing the next generation of CloudTrail capabilities using state-of-the-art innovation. As a Sr SDM in our org, you'll work with a development team building one of the largest auditing and compliance event management systems worldwide.
In this role you will own/influence end-to-end outcomes, not just engineering delivery. You'll drive executive alignment (VP-level reviews), lead customer and partner engagement directly, influence strategies such as PRFAQs and Pricing, and build the mechanisms that give leadership confidence.
You are a builder with good working knowledge of cloud technologies and serverless computing. You'll establish AI-assisted development workflows, from AI-powered code generation and automated PR reviews to intelligent test creation, setting the standard for how modern engineering teams multiply their output. You will build and evolve programs to hire, develop, and retain top talent, and rapidly deliver new systems to meet emergent business needs. You will be responsible for driving quality and enabling technical innovation. You will manage evolving / complex demands, including multiple projects with dependencies on other internal organizations. Responsibilities include direct management of technical leaders, process and quality of service improvements, strategic planning, project management for software within the team, and management of resources across teams.
