Amazon strives to be Earth’s most customer-centric company. With Print-On-Demand (PoD), we envision a world where customers can buy any book in any language and, where publishers and authors can distribute their titles without having to hold physical inventory, where every book is always “in-stock” and customer orders are manufactured in real-time and delivered on-time, helping the environment by only printing books readers want.
We are looking for an experienced senior PM-T to lead product strategy and build our end-to-end manufacturing accounting roadmap. You’ll partner closely with both technical and non-technical partners including user experience, software development, operations, accounting, payments, procurement, and product management. You’ll have to be to a self-starter who’s comfortable with ambiguity. You’ll need strong attention to detail, and an ability to work in a fast-paced environment.
The ideal candidate will have excellent product management, problem solving and communication skills and be able to effectively interact with technical and non-technical stakeholders at all levels. The candidate will be at ease dealing with ambiguity, have strong attention to detail, be motivated by a fast-paced environment, and be comfortable thinking big and diving deep. This means you are not only able to develop and drive high-level strategic initiatives while staying on top of tactical execution, but can also roll up your sleeves, dig in and get the job done.
If you sound like this person, we can’t wait to meet you!
