What do you like most about shopping at Amazon? Huge product selection? Amazon’s catalog has billions of items. Despite its mind-boggling size and variety, it remains the best in the business. That’s no accident! We use state of the art Generative AI and cloud computing technologies to keep it that way. A vast and high quality product catalog is a key strategic asset for Amazon that sets us apart from our competitors. Come help us make the world’s best product catalog even better and influence the way millions of customers shop.

As a Technical Program Manager (TPM) within Amazon’s Selection and Catalog Systems, you will own solutions to a large set of customer-facing product catalog issues that influence critical business processes and product discovery. Our work is at the cutting edge of AI and big data analytics. Here is a taste of incredibly captivating questions that you, as a leader, will be asking yourself almost every day:

How do we process datasets (in excess of billions of records and hundreds of TB in size) that continue to increase at an incredibly fast rate with even fewer computing resources?
How do we run Gen AI solutions at scale of Amazon's catalog?
How do we keep raising the bar on the reach of our automated solutions to reduce/eliminate manual fixes to the catalog?
