Principal Product Manager - Technical, Amazon Lists

Job description

What if you could re-invent how millions of customers plan their shopping needs? We are looking for a Principal Product Manager – Tech (PMT) to lead a new 0→1 initiative that will shape the future of how customers discover, organize, and share across Amazon. This is a high-ambiguity, high-impact role that requires creative product thinking, deep technical fluency, and a strong point of view on how Generative AI can unlock transformative customer experiences.

As a Principal PMT, you will define the long-term vision and strategy, influence senior leadership, and drive execution across engineering, science, and design teams. You will operate with significant autonomy, navigating ambiguity to identify the biggest customer problems worth solving and delivering innovative solutions at scale.

Key job responsibilities

You will define and champion a bold product vision for a new 0→1 initiative within Amazon Lists, grounded in deep customer understanding and market insight. You'll identify and drive opportunities to apply Gen AI and large language models to create differentiated, intelligent customer experiences. You'll partner with engineering and applied science teams to evaluate technical feasibility, define architecture trade-offs, and ensure scalable, high-quality delivery.

You'll align stakeholders across Amazon (retail, personalization, Alexa, etc.) without direct authority; earn trust and drive consensus at VP+ levels. You'll conduct deep customer research, define success metrics, and relentlessly prioritize based on customer impact. You'll raise the bar on product thinking; mentor senior PMs and contribute to a culture of invention and high standards.
