AWS Specialist Technology Team (STT) is the connective tissue between AWS's deep technical specialists, field teams, and customers—delivering L300+ technical expertise, mechanisms, and products that accelerate customer success and drive frictionless AWS adoption at scale. Our mission spans two fronts: we are fundamentally transforming how thousands of field team members access specialist knowledge through AI-powered, on-demand expertise across 30+ technical domains, and we build and ship customer-facing engineered solutions that accelerate AWS service adoption across industries including security, AI/ML, spatial data, cost optimization, and more.

We are seeking a Senior Manager of Product Management - Tech to lead and manage the product management function for STT. Your team of product managers owns a diverse and high-impact portfolio spanning both of these areas: AI-powered internal tools—including agentic systems, knowledge platforms, GTM orchestration, and intelligence products—that are redefining how field teams engage with specialists, and a portfolio of 20+ customer-facing products that solve real-world adoption challenges, support full development-to-production lifecycles, and are evolving into AI-ready, agent-accessible architectures. You will be responsible for setting a cohesive product vision and strategy across this entire portfolio while staying deeply engaged at the individual product level—shaping direction, making prioritization calls, and driving accountability through your product managers to ensure every product delivers meaningful impact for both AWS field teams and external customers.

This role is inherently cross-functional and cross-organizational. You will partner with engineering, science, design, GTM, and field leadership across multiple organizations to drive alignment and influence strategic direction. You will be hands-on in guiding product direction at the individual product level—working through your product managers to shape roadmaps, evaluate trade-offs, and ensure each product delivers measurable impact while maintaining coherence across the broader portfolio. You will represent the portfolio in executive reviews with Directors and VPs.

The ideal candidate has a proven track record of building, managing, and developing high-performing product management teams. You bring deep experience with AI/ML technologies and agentic systems, the judgment to set strategic direction across both internal platforms and external customer-facing products, and the leadership skills to raise the bar for PM excellence across your organization.
