DESCRIPTION

Job summary
At Amazon, we’re working to be the most Customer-centric company on earth. A customer experience that we’re constantly looking to take to a new level is how we fulfill and deliver customers’ orders. We’re doing so by building a world class last mile operation capable of exceeding the expectations of our customers by ensuring that their orders, no matter how large or small, are delivered as quickly, accurately, and cost effectively as possible by building a network of entrepreneurial owned and operated small businesses (called the Delivery Service Partner program). To enable the program to scale in a sustainable way, Amazon is seeking an exceptional Principal Product Manager who will be part of a start-up group that’s defining and building cutting-edge products and services capabilities supporting Amazon’s current and future last mile initiatives.

This Principal Product Manager will be responsible for owning and developing new iterations of our Delivery Service Partner program, specifically for new use cases within emerging country regions such as APAC, MENA, and LATAM. This individual will organize expansions and new initiatives across the program, measure the success of the program over time, and identify opportunities to continually improve the program for Amazon customers and the entrepreneurs that own and operate small delivery businesses. The optimal fit for this role will be a candidate wanting to roll-up his or her sleeves, dive into a challenge, develop a solution and path forward, and convince senior management that their solution is the best one. This will be a high visibility role, meaning that the optimal candidate will be comfortable driving critical business decisions in fast paced, high pressure, and often ambiguous environment. A successful candidate will be customer focused, highly analytical, resourceful, a big thinker, a strong writer, and able to operate at all levels of the organization. Any background in logistics, last mile, or with metrics and product management will be considered a plus.
