Sr. Technical Program Manager, Prime Video - Sports and Linear Experience

Saved job description

Prime Video is changing the way hundreds of millions of customers interact with video content. Amazon believes so deeply in the mission of streaming video that we've launched our own studio to create original and exclusive content and engaged with the top professional sports leagues around the world — including the NFL, Premier League, and NBA — to deliver compelling live content to Prime members.

We are seeking a Technical Program Manager to own and drive delivery of high-impacting programs related to Live TV (Sports, and Live Channels). In this role, you will coordinate across multiple engineering teams, disciplines (engineering, product, design, UX research, BIE, and QA), and client platforms (mobile, living room devices, and web) — each with their own roadmaps, priorities, and constraints. You'll have the opportunity to work across many groups within and outside Prime Video while getting deep insights into our entire business.

The Senior TPM role requires excellent leadership skills, strategic thinking, strong technical expertise, the ability to partner effectively across teams within and outside of Amazon, and the ability to manage high-impact projects. As a member of the team, you’ll need to have the ability to understand the fundamentals of the latest video technology and what it takes to launch large scale video services and features that involve multiple teams within and outside of Prime Video. In addition to this, you’ll need to be able to influence business, product and technology leaders and be a strong advocate for our customers. We're a high energy, fast growth business excited to have the opportunity to shape how video is consumed for years to come.

If you are interested in leading key strategic programs for Prime Video that have a worldwide impact, enjoy leading and launching products and services that will enable new business opportunities for Prime Video, and delivering innovative and industry leading features to our customers, we'd love to talk with you!
