Description

Come build the future with us! What unites all Amazonians (across teams and geographies) is that we are all striving to delight customers and make their lives easier, whoever that customer may be. In pursuit of delighting customers, Amazonians have developed many products and services that transformed the way our customers live their lives and run their businesses. Together, we are building the future, one innovative product, service, and idea at a time.

Amazon Ads is dedicated to driving measurable outcomes for brand advertisers, agencies, authors, publishers, and entrepreneurs. Our ad solutions—including retail media, display, video, DSP, measurement, and ad tech solutions—leverage Amazon's innovations and insights to find, attract, and engage intended audiences throughout their daily journeys.

We're seeking a strategic and customer-obsessed Product Marketing Manager to join our Ads Product Marketing team. In this role, you'll serve as a critical bridge between product development and go-to-market execution, translating complex advertising solutions into compelling narratives that resonate with advertisers and drive product adoption at scale.

As a Product Marketing Manager, you'll partner closely with Product Management, Go-to-Market, and cross-functional stakeholders to shape product strategy through deep customer insights and competitive intelligence. You'll own the end-to-end marketing lifecycle—from informing the product roadmap through voice-of-customer research to crafting positioning and messaging that differentiates our solutions in market. Your work will directly influence how thousands of advertisers discover, adopt, and maximize value from Amazon Ads products.

The ideal candidate combines analytical rigor with creative storytelling, thrives in ambiguous environments, and has a proven track record of launching products that achieve measurable business impact. You'll need to balance strategic thinking with tactical execution, moving seamlessly from conducting advertiser research to developing sales enablement materials to presenting product vision to senior leadership.
