Corporate Development is seeking inventive and engineering-obsessed technologists to relentlessly improve the evaluation and integration of acquisitions across Amazon. This Technical Program Manager (TPM) will contribute in every stage of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and build a strong community of technology leaders across Amazon and its subsidiaries. This includes 1) developing technical due diligence strategies with senior technology leaders across Amazon and AWS 2) evaluating findings and associated risks with acquisition targets to inform and influence transaction stakeholders and 3) partnering with acquisition sponsors to define essential technology integration tasks unique to the needs of every transaction. TPM also identifies common engineering integration problems and codifies learnings to apply on future acquisitions.

While excellent written and verbal communications are essential for any successful TPM at Amazon they are mission-critical in this role to both 1) communicate upwards to VPs across Corp Dev and acquiring businesses to provide concise assessments of technical inputs supporting or challenging specific acquisition rationale and 2) lead newly acquired engineers and leaders by example through written communications to navigate cross-team collaboration and decision making.
