DESCRIPTION
The Amazon Luna team is leveraging the power of the cloud to enable customers to experience the rich and immersive world of gaming on all of their existing devices. Luna represents an exciting and truly new product and business, with a high degree of innovation, and an opportunity to reach a large volume of passionate customers.
As a Senior Product Manager working on Luna, you will be directly responsible for defining and building key Luna functionality across endpoints. You will be working with a unique and gifted team developing new, exciting and cutting-edge features for consumers. The team is a multidisciplinary group of engineers, scientists, and business people engaged in a fast-paced mission to deliver these new products. The team faces a challenging task of balancing cost, schedule, technical invention, and performance requirements. You should be comfortable collaborating in a fast-paced and often uncertain environment, and contributing to innovative solutions, while demonstrating leadership, technical competence, and meticulousness. You should also be comfortable collaborating regularly with colleagues across many of Amazons current businesses, including devices, retail, and AWS.
You will lead the product strategy and vision for key areas of Luna, and you will develop and look after product roadmaps and features based on that strategy and vision. You will sit in the Devices Organization (the Org responsible for creating Echo, Alexa, Kindle, Fire TV and many other products), but you will work cross-functionally with product managers, engineering, design, operations, finance and executive teams across AWS, retail, and beyond to bring features and products to market and develop and grow business opportunities for Amazon. A successful candidate will be highly analytical, be able to work extremely effectively in a matrix organization, show perseverance and steadfastness, love thinking about new products and technologies, and be adept at synthesizing a variety of technologies and capabilities into high quality, simple products and applications that customers love.
