Our automated tooling quickly identifies the cause of an issue and helps mitigate the impact, and much of our engineers’ time is spent on projects to improve the tooling, automation, and processes to avoid future occurrences. We help direct the resolution of an issue to the relevant service teams, and dive deep into those events retrospectively to drive improvements to our process. It's an exciting time to join our team as we are rapidly growing and expanding our offerings globally. Key job responsibilities The Senior TPM role requires experienced leadership skills, the ability to partner effectively across global teams and time zones both within the team and across Amazon. It requires strong technical expertise, the ability to manage projects with cross-org dependencies to find solutions to unanticipated obstacles. As a member of the team, you’ll need to understand the fundamentals of Software Development Lifecycle, Incident Management, required tools, processes, and what it takes to manage dependent services and features that involve multiple internal teams. You will use data and insights learned from incidents to influence and drive change into our processes and tooling. You will help evolve our incident management approach which includes direct customer engagements and brings with it a greater accountability for issue resolution. You will also continuously engage business, product, and technology leaders and be a strong advocate for our customers. This position will be part of a globally distributed
