This Sr. Program Manager role will lead a program within Financial Integrity Trust (FIT), a team embedded within the Financial Risk Mitigation (FRM) organization. FIT is focused on financial integrity of engagement between seller and Amazon by ensuring a secure, transparent, and trustworthy financial relationship between Amazon and its sellers. It is a critical line of defense, stopping bad actors from profiting while ensuring a frictionless experience for SPs. We track “who” is profiting and “where” Amazon disburses funds, and own “when” disbursements occur. We ensure appropriate controls, verifications, and validations for both charge and disbursement instruments, reducing bad actors’ ability to scale fraud and ensure compliance. We also compute and withhold account-level disbursement reserves, govern payment speed, and recover funds from enforced sellers, preventing unpaid fees and misuse of funds.

Key job responsibilities
• Mitigate financial risk and stop bad actors from profiting by building tools and setting policies that control how quickly sellers are paid and disburse. This role will work closely with product, tech, policy, legal, and finance stakeholders and partner teams.

• Own and communicate strategic vision, updates, goals, policy changes and roadmap to stakeholders and senior leaders. Routinely author documents: PRFAQ’s, Working Backwards, BRD’s, WBR’s/MBR’s/QBR’s, Program Updates etc.

• Deliver results and execute multiple high-visibility initiatives simultaneously. Make data-driven tradeoffs to maintain strategic deliverables.

• Operate with a high degree of independence. This role requires a curious, self-starting, fast learner who thrives in ambiguous, challenging spaces.

• Set and achieve challenging goals to solve problems. Drive efficiency improvements by eliminating non-value add processes and introducing automation to maximize impact.

• Develop solutions that scale in a resource constrained environment. Proactively launch mechanisms and build processes that address future challenges.

• Extensively build trust with cross-organizational stakeholders. Use data to influence without authority and drive consensus at all levels of an organization.

• Expertly quantify impact with best-in-class analytics and investigation techniques. Advanced Excel skills are a minimum expectation (Advanced SQL is a plus).
