Principal Product Manager - Tech, Live Events Advertising

Description

Amazon's Advertising Technology team builds the technology infrastructure to manage billions of advertising queries every day. The result is better quality advertising for publishers and more relevant ads for customers. In this organization you'll experience the benefits of working in a dynamic, entrepreneurial environment, while leveraging the resources of Amazon.com (AMZN), one of the world's leading companies.

Amazon Publisher Services (APS) helps publishers of all sizes and on all channels better monetize their content through effective advertising. APS unites publishers with advertisers across devices and media channels. We work with Amazon teams across the globe to solve complex problems for our customers. The end results are Amazon products that let publishers focus on what they do best - publishing.

APS is revolutionizing live sports advertising with high-performance ad technology and real-time optimization across the world's biggest sporting events. We're building the next generation of infrastructure for live sports—tackling millisecond-critical decisioning at Amazon scale while delivering effective monetization for publishers and relevant ads for viewers.

As a Principal Product Manager - Tech, you will be the strategic product leader responsible for establishing a multi-year product vision for our live sports solution. You will define how we transform the supply landscape for live sports advertising: identifying and onboarding premium publishers and broadcasters, designing innovative supply products that differentiate our solution, and building technical capabilities that unlock superior advertiser performance. You will own the product strategy and roadmap, develop compelling experiences that attract and retain high-quality live sports publishers, and drive global supply growth.

This role requires deep technical understanding of infrastructure, server-side ad insertion, programmatic auction mechanics, and real-time bidding at scale. You will work closely with engineering, demand-side teams, and publisher development to drive adoption and optimize outcomes across the advertising stack.

A successful candidate brings strategic product vision with a relentless focus on supply-side innovation. You thrive in ambiguity while delivering concrete results, lead through influence at all levels, and bring technical depth to transform complex supply challenges into breakthrough product solutions. You can identify unmet publisher needs, develop sophisticated growth strategies, and drive roadmaps that balance near-term publisher wins with long-term transformation of the live sports advertising experience.
