Description

Amazon is one of the largest employers in the world. Empowering our managers with the right tools, insights, mechanisms, guidance, and policies is critical to how we lead at scale. The Amazon Leadership eXperiences (ALX) team is at the heart of this mission. The work we do sit right at the intersection of technology, leadership, and people. We’re building tools, driving programs, or leading thought leadership that empower hundreds of thousands of managers across Amazon to lead more clearly, act faster, and support 1+ million employees worldwide more effectively

We’re seeking a Principal Product Manager – Technical (PMT) to lead a portfolio of complex talent management services and capabilities. In this role, you will be our thought leader in the talent management space, drive the end-to-end strategy, product vision, and execution for critical tools used by Amazon’s diverse population of managers — from frontline leaders to senior executives. You will collaborate deeply with partners across HR Business Partners (HBRPs), Talent Management, sister product teams, engineering, UX, science, data, and external vendors.

This is a highly strategic and impactful role. You should apply if you:

- Thrive in ambiguous, fast-paced environments and love building 0→1 products.

- Have a track record of owning large, complex product portfolios and driving alignment across technical and non-technical stakeholders.

- Are passionate about leadership development, the employee lifecycle, and the power of well-designed systems to drive behavior change.

- Are excited about applying GenAI to reimagine how managers lead and develop teams.

Join us in shaping the future of how Amazon leads.

Key job responsibilities

You’ll be responsible for:

- Defining and executing the long-term vision and roadmap for an integrated talent management platform that supports the entire manager lifecycle

- Driving the integration of emerging technologies, including Generative AI, to unlock new manager capabilities, automate workflows, and personalize leadership experiences at scale.

- Making high-quality product trade-offs that balance user needs, tech feasibility, and business impact.

- Ensuring the platform is intuitive, scalable, and grounded in leadership science and behavioral insights.

- Acting as a thought partner and strategic advisor to senior stakeholders across Amazon.

A day in the life

As a Principal Product Manager – Tech in the ALX team, you’ll split your time between strategic thinking, deep problem-solving, and cross-functional collaboration. You’ll start your day reviewing product performance data, customer feedback, or insights from recent launches. You’ll meet with UX designers to refine experiences for frontline managers, partner with scientists to explore GenAI-powered personalization, and align with engineering on delivery timelines.

You’ll work closely with HR Business Partners, Talent Management leaders, journey product teams, and internal customers to understand pain points across the manager lifecycle — from onboarding to performance, growth, and succession. You’ll lead working sessions to align cross-functional partners, and you’ll frequently write and drive narratives for product strategy, investment trade-offs, and leadership reviews (e.g., 3YP, OP1/2, MBRs, QBRs). You’ll navigate across domains — tech, science, people — to turn big, ambiguous problems into cohesive platform strategies that scale globally.

Each day, you’re helping shape how Amazon’s hundreds of thousands managers lead more effectively.
