Senior Risk Manager - Inventory Trust, Inventory Evaluation

Amazon · Seattle, WA · 1 wk ago
Project ManagementFull-time

Key job responsibilities

  • Lead end-to-end programmatic clearance of bad actor and risky inventory across global marketplaces, driving disposition decisions on millions of units to protect customers and Amazon's fulfillment network
  • Design and scale inventory evaluation mechanisms — including disposal thresholds, escalation workflows, and clearance strategies — to stay ahead of evolving fraud patterns and bad actor tactics
  • Own cross-functional coordination with Legal, Compliance, Enforcement, and Operations teams to resolve complex inventory holds (e.g., regulatory freezes, legal seizures, non-responsive blocked accounts)
  • Develop, implement, and govern key program metrics that provide visibility into clearance velocity, dwell time reduction, and bad actor inventory risk — using data to influence business decisions and drive accountability
  • Build and manage escalation pathways for aged and high-value inventory, partnering with senior leadership to unblock stalled cases and accelerate resolution
  • Identify process gaps and drive operational innovation — creating new mechanisms where playbooks don't exist and scaling solutions that reduce manual intervention over time
  • Communicate program status, risks, and strategic recommendations to senior leadership through crisp written narratives and business reviews
  • Partner with adjacent teams to share intelligence, align enforcement actions, and prevent bad actors from exploiting inventory gaps across programs

About the team

The Inventory Evaluation team sits within Inventory Trust and is responsible for protecting Amazon's fulfillment network from fraudulent, counterfeit, and non-compliant inventory. We evaluate and clear millions of units annually — ensuring bad actor inventory never reaches customers while treating legitimate sellers fairly. Our team operates at the intersection of enforcement, compliance partnering with teams across Amazon. We value ownership, bias for action, and a willingness to dive deep into ambiguous problems. We're a small team with outsized impact — and we're growing.
