We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help.

You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.

Do you have a background in managing programs and building solutions for energy or sustainability initiatives? Are you excited to work on the world’s largest cloud computing infrastructure? Are you passionate about making an impact in energy and sustainability industry? In this role you will have end-to-end ownership for all program needs (program strategy, defining product requirements, influencing design, development, testing, deployment, adoption and maintenance of solutions that scale to meet AWS’s energy and sustainability goals). This role will support powering our operations with 100% renewable energy and achieving net zero carbon by 2040 by owning development of program mechanisms and technology solutions that deliver automation, data management, and analytics to help achieve our scale. The candidate will be comfortable managing competing priorities and be able to bring clarity and structure to ambiguous scenarios. A successful candidate will have a professional demeanor and be able to communicate effectively with technical and non-technical people at every level, both internally and externally.

Key job responsibilities

• Single threaded owner for program management throughout lifecycle of strategic initiatives and technology solutions (intake, design, development, testing, deployment, and post-implementation phases).

• Write documents that work backwards from the customer (balancing the needs of customers in various teams and regions) and translate the desired customer experience into a logically sequenced roadmap.

• Work cross-functionally across leaders in product, engineering, and broader Sustainability org to influence priorities and trade-offs, drive alignment, and execute product development.

• Create and execute plans to deliver complex cross-team programs and initiatives (e.g., UX updates, building and managing interactivity between products, increasing data quality, and accelerating customer product adoption).

• Drive process improvement to streamline execution of strategic initiatives and technology solutions.

• Lead the development of org-level metrics to ensure the most impactful delivery goals are formulated to meet program goals, including defining KPI's/SLA's used to drive high impact business decisions and reporting to senior leadership.

• Establish cadence to review the overall performance of the stakeholder teams, the timeline, and progress to overall deliverables.
