About the role

Want to transform the way people enjoy music, podcasts, radio, and audiobooks? Then join the team that delivers the global audio experience on Alexa+, Amazon's generative AI-powered assistant.

Key job responsibilities

• Work closely with engineering, science, design, business intelligence, operations, finance and executive teams to bring features to market and develop and grow business opportunities for Amazon.

A day in the life

Given the scope and high level of ownership that product managers have in Alexa, rarely are two days the same. You are a business owner, customer-facing representative for the experiences, and the point person for partner teams.

On a weekly basis, you will be working with customers to learn about the problems they are trying to solve, analyzing service and business metrics, writing PRFAQs and BRDs, iterating on product decisions with the Science and Engineering team, working with partners in solution architecture, BizDev, Legal, etc., thinking big to envision what is next, and exhibiting learn and be curious for different technologies, growth strategies, and market trends.

You will have a chance to work with everyone who makes products at Alexa successful, including senior leadership, engineers, business and sales experts, marketing, advocates, data scientists, content writers, and more.

You will connect with customers to understand our core strengths and weaknesses. You will synthesize that feedback and other industry knowledge, with business and service data, to create strategies and test hypotheses.

To develop that expertise, you'll constantly be looking to learn by reaching out to other experts within the company and in the larger tech community, using your own product by developing samples, demos, side-projects, and through mentorship, both as a mentor and mentee.
