Sr. Software Dev Manager, Agentic Commerce Experiences
AI in this role
Lead an engineering team building agentic commerce platforms while driving adoption of GenAI coding tools.
You'll lead a team of engineers — including senior and principal-level ICs — through complex technical challenges, making pragmatic decisions that balance speed of delivery against long-term technical health. This includes driving adoption of the latest GenAI coding tools to accelerate your team's velocity while holding Amazon's high standards for code quality and security. You'll partner with product managers to shape the roadmap and refine requirements, with design to ensure high-fidelity customer experiences, and with peer engineering teams to align on scalable architectures that handle Amazon-scale traffic. You own the tradeoffs between scope, timeline, and resourcing, and you make the call when priorities compete.
A significant portion of your time goes to people and technical leadership: coaching and developing engineers, managing performance, recruiting, and steering the team through design and architecture reviews rather than owning every design yourself. You're accountable for your team's services end-to-end — from design through deployment and operational excellence — ensuring they meet stringent performance, security, and reliability bars, and that on-call and operational load stay sustainable. As a Senior Manager, you'll set the team's technical strategy, raise the engineering bar through the standards you enforce and the reviews you lead, and represent your team's work and commitments to senior leadership and cross-org stakeholders.
