Job ID: 2545799 | Amazon Retail LLC - D79Are you passionate about languages and translation? Are you motivated to have a direct impact on customers around the world? Do you have a tech background and love finding creative solutions to challenging problems? Amazon's Translation Services team is responsible for building the tools and features that support the localization and translation needs of all Amazon businesses. We partner with content owners to translate and deliver content for customers around the world, and we are obsessed with providing the highest quality content in each language we support.

As a Senior Product Manager - Technical, you will own the strategy and execution of one of the product charters within the Translation Services space. You will partner with stakeholders across the business -- content owners, localization program managers, and translators -- to understand their biggest problems and opportunities, then build a backlog of features to address those problems. You will work closely with one or more software development teams to define and build those features, then measure the features' ability to successfully meet your stakeholders' needs. You will own the following deliverables: documentation of your product's vision; assessment of entitlement and ROI for your product roadmap; feature requirements and user stories; experimentation set-up and analysis; and release notes. You must be able to be deeply connected to the customer experience, product details, and success metrics, yet be able to zoom out to the 10,000-foot level to understand how your charter fits into the broader Translation Services ecosystem and Amazon as a whole.A day in the life
There may not be a typical day. One day you may be leading a vision workshop or presenting to a VP, and the next day conducting a deep dive into a customer anecdote or collaborating with your software development and UX Design partners to build a feature. But what is consistent is always having your charter’s goals and progress top of mind, driving clarity and stakeholder alignment, and looking around corners to anticipate problems that may affect individual or team outcomes.About the team
