Sr Technical Program Manager, Amazon Branded Connected Devices
Description As our Senior Technical Program Manager on the Amazon Branded Connected Devices team, you'll be the bridge between imagination and execution. You'll work with brilliant minds across engineering, product, and operations teams, tackling problems that haven't been solved before. The challenges are real, the scale is massive, and the impact touches millions of lives. Every day brings fresh puzzles. You'll guide teams through the development maze, keeping everyone aligned and moving forward. From optimizing performance to managing costs, from refining manufacturing to ensuring reliability – you'll own it all. You'll work with teams across the globe, orchestrating the complex dance of hardware and software development. We need someone who thrives in ambiguity and gets energized by complex challenges. Someone who can speak tech but translate it for everyone else. Someone who knows how to lead without a roadmap and deliver without a manual. The work is demanding but deeply satisfying. You'll learn constantly, solve meaningful problems, and have a blast doing it. Plus, you'll see your work come to life in products that change how people live. If you're ready to build the future and have some fun doing it, we want to talk. Key job responsibilities We're looking for a rare breed of technical leader, someone who sees patterns in chaos and opportunities in challenges. Numbers tell you stories. Data guides your decisions. But you don’t only focus on spreadsheets and metrics, you know how to rally a team around a bold vision. You've been in the trenches before. You've taken messy, complex technical problems and turned them into elegant solutions. When others see roadblocks, you see pathways. You can work solo when needed, but you truly shine when building consensus across teams and turning competing priorities into shared victories. Speed doesn't scare you, it excites you. You've thrived in fast-moving environments where today's plan might need to evolve by tomorrow. You've owned programs from start to finish, navigating the uncertainties and bringing order to the chaos. Most importantly, you've got the battle scars and success stories to prove it.
