The AGI Identity & Personalization team is seeking a Senior TPM to work with internal and external partner engineering teams to bring new personal experiences to life.

Our vision is to enable a billion people to have a personal relationship with Alexa from any Alexa-supported device. If you enjoy solving complex problems and delivering technical solutions at scale, come talk to us!

In this role you will be responsible for scoping and delivering large projects across Alexa & Amazon.
