Job Information
Amazon Principal Product Manager - Speed, Amazon Shipping in Bellevue, Washington
Description
Amazon Shipping is building Amazon's next $100B business. Delivery speed options are how we meet customers where they are and expand what shippers can offer. Some customers need packages tomorrow. Others optimize for cost and can wait. You own the portfolio that serves both ends and everything in between: premium air for urgent shipments, economy ground for price-sensitive customers, and the service tiers we haven't built yet.
As a Principal Product Manager, you drive the decisions around which speed products launch, influence how they're priced, and where we invest to improve. Your choices shape the experience for millions of deliveries.
You dissect operational data, validate assumptions with active shippers, and direct significant investments with precision. When opportunities surface, you mobilize teams across Amazon to capture value. When initiatives falter, you make swift, clear-headed decisions to reallocate resources.
This role demands a builder who thrives in uncharted territory. You turn complex datasets into actionable insights, make high-stakes decisions with imperfect information, and align senior stakeholders behind bold visions. Your judgment balances timelines with calculated risk: moving fast while betting on validated opportunities.
Your impact reaches every package we deliver. Each successful initiative unlocks new revenue streams and expands what customers can accomplish with Amazon Shipping.
Key job responsibilities
Direct strategic investments across delivery speed initiatives, allocating capital between premium air, economy ground, and emerging opportunities based on market dynamics and unit economics
Launch new delivery speed products, owning the full product lifecycle from concept through pilot testing to scaled operations across multiple markets
Monitor daily delivery performance metrics, identifying optimization opportunities and orchestrating rapid fixes with operations teams to maintain on-time delivery targets
Architect and maintain the quarterly reporting framework tracking revenue, costs, and performance metrics across all speed tiers

Develop comprehensive business cases for infrastructure investments, synthesizing customer research, market analysis, and long-range financial projections
Drive rapid delivery innovation experiments, using data-driven analysis to identify and scale successful concepts
