Description
This role leads the team that defines how HR professionals across Amazon support 1.8 million employees in 60+ countries. The scope is unlike most product roles: one platform, thousands of HR users, and problems that span dozens of languages, cultures, and moments that matter in people's lives.
This Senior Manager of Product Management owns the product vision, strategy, and roadmap for the platforms that HR professionals use every day to respond to, manage, and resolve employee HR requests across all of Amazon. The team includes Product Managers and UX Designers who work backwards from HR professionals and employees to decide what gets built, validate it at scale, and ship it.
The work spans AI-enabled case management, intelligent workflow automation, proactive issue detection, and tools that help HR professionals spend more of their time on the moments that matter most to employees.
Key job responsibilities
Own the end-to-end product strategy and multi-year roadmap for the HR platforms portfolio, ensuring alignment with PXT organizational goals and the broader HR support mission
Lead the platform convergence program, sequencing the unification of legacy HR systems into a single modern platform while maintaining uninterrupted service delivery for 19,000+ active users
Shape how AI is applied across the portfolio, identifying where it creates the most value for HR professionals and employees, and building the products that put it to work
Define and own success metrics that reflect what matters: employee experience (resolution quality, single-contact resolution, self-service rate), HR professional experience (research time, system complexity, time to resolution), and platform health (adoption, reliability, quality)
Manage a team of product managers across multiple product lines, developing PM talent and building a high-judgment product culture
Navigate complex stakeholder relationships across 10+ partner teams where priority shifts, resource constraints, or misalignment create cascading impacts
Represent the portfolio in executive business reviews and planning cycles, translating technical progress into business outcomes for VP and SVP audiences
Make high-judgment prioritization tradeoffs across competing demands: platform convergence vs. feature delivery, AI investment vs. reliability, global expansion vs. depth in existing markets
Champion the voice of the customer by conducting regular site visits and direct engagement with Line HR, Central HR teams, and field PXT professionals
Partner with engineering leadership to manage capacity allocation across 50+ SDEs, ensuring the right balance between platform delivery, innovation, and operational excellence
