AWS Utility Computing (UC) provides product innovations — from foundational services such as Amazon’s Simple Storage Service (S3) and Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), to consistently released new product innovations that continue to set AWS’s services and features apart in the industry. As a member of the UC organization, you’ll support the development and management of Compute, Database, Storage, Internet of Things (Iot), Platform, and Productivity Apps services in AWS, including support for customers who require specialized security solutions for their cloud services.
The Amazon Web Services (AWS) team is innovating new ways of building massively scalable distributed systems and delivering the next generation of cloud computing that supports AWS offerings like S3, EC2, CloudFront, and SageMaker.

As a Sr. Product Manager, you will be responsible for the strategy, roadmap, and performance of an AWS region. You should be passionate about delivering services to customers while also possessing a strategic understanding of business objectives. A strong technical background is required to produce concrete specifications and work closely with engineering to drive implementation. In this role, you will be at the forefront of cloud technologies with interactions across the full breadth of AWS services, and must be creative and forward leaning in developing solutions.
If you like to focus on Customer Experience, think and act globally and want to contribute to the operational excellence of Amazon, we’d like to meet you. Your work will help to take AWS into the future; innovate cloud computing solutions and solve technical problems while fundamentally transforming the way we partner with customers to meet their key mission requirements and goals.
