Coordinate battery energy storage systems (BESS) deployment programs across global data center infrastructure.

program-managementcross-functional-leadershipdata-visualizationreporting
AWS is deploying battery energy storage systems (BESS) across its global data center fleet. To support this initiative, we are seeking a Senior Technical Program Manager to support the BESS program lead in coordinating delivery across AWS's full BESS portfolio — spanning front-of-the-meter (FTM), behind-the-meter (BTM), and strategic energy partnerships. You will build and run the program mechanisms that keep a complex, multi-org initiative on track: standing up reporting cadences, driving cross-functional alignment, and ensuring senior leadership has clear visibility into capacity delivery, timelines, and decisions needed. This is a high-visibility role with direct exposure to Director and VP level reviews.

Key job responsibilities

• Support the BESS program lead in coordinating end-to-end program delivery across front-of-the-meter (FTM) and behind-the-meter (BTM) BESS work streams consolidating status, dependencies, and critical path items into a single source of truth.

• Establish and run program mechanisms including weekly status updates, monthly business reviews (MBR), and work stream syncs with engineering and cross-functional partners (Procurement, Finance, Legal, Public Policy, FRE, regional energy teams).

• Build automated reporting and KPI dashboards — capacity unlocked (MW), deployment milestones, spend tracking, and key blockers — replacing manual processes with scalable mechanisms.

• Prepare leadership-ready materials including page-zero summaries, capacity-focused drill-downs, and decision documents for VP and S-team reviews.

• Track deployment readiness across BESS programs including integration requirements, utility interconnection, permitting, site planning, OEM qualification status, and commissioning schedules.

• Partner with engineering teams (PGS, DCE) to maintain awareness of technical solutions and translate engineering decisions into program, capacity, and timeline impacts.


A day in the life
Amazon's vision is to be the world's most customer-centric company, and this role is key to that vision as BESS is a strategic priority for AWS. Each day you will interact with teams responsible for battery engineering, power system design, procurement, finance, regional energy management, and data center operations. You prioritize activities to support BESS capacity delivery, solve problems and blockers, and focus on the actions most impactful for program success
