Principal PMT, Sourcing Strategy , SCOT, Multi-Channel Sourcing

The Multi-Channel Sourcing (MCS) organization within Supply Chain Optimization Technologies (SCOT) builds a comprehensive, intelligent suite of systems that determine how Amazon sources its selection. By integrating vendor capabilities, operational constraints, and economic modeling, MCS matches products to the simplest possible supply chain at the lowest cost for both Amazon and vendors through mutually beneficial supply chain relationships. We exist to solve the fundamental challenge of sourcing optimization across Amazon's complex, multi-channel supply network while building long-term vendor relationships that drive sustained growth and innovation.We are looking for a Principal Product Manager, Technical to lead product strategy for our sourcing strategy optimization platform within MCS. An initial product methodology has been established and an MVP has launched, but the fundamental question remains open: does this approach generalize across all of Amazon's current and future supply chain configurations? The answer may be yes, or it may require rethinking core assumptions, pivoting the product direction, and redefining the primitives from the ground up. You will own that answer.You will operate at the intersection of product strategy, systems architecture, and science, driving alignment across multiple engineering, science, and partner product teams. The right abstractions are still being defined, and substantial architectural alignment work is underway across many teams in this space. You will bring clarity to that complexity, define a long-term vision, and build conviction across the organization, all while remaining open to changing direction as you learn. This role is for a leader who thrives in ambiguity and sees early-stage, high-uncertainty product challenges as the most rewarding kind of work.Key job responsibilitiesDefine the 3 to 5 year product vision and strategy for the sourcing strategy optimization platform, including the set of reusable building blocks, and system components that underpin a configuration-agnostic supply chain evaluation engine.Critically evaluate whether the current product methodology and architecture generalize across all use cases. Be willing to change direction, redefine primitives, or rethink the fundamental approach if evidence warrants it.Drive architectural alignment across multiple engineering, science, and partner product teams. Navigate competing priorities and build consensus in a space where many teams have a stake in the outcome.Own the product roadmap and make high-judgment prioritization decisions in the face of significant ambiguity, balancing near-term delivery with long-term architectural integrity.Partner closely with science teams scope model requirements, ensure accuracy and extensibility.Influence VP-level stakeholders across multiple organizations to secure alignment, investment, and adoption. Represent the product vision in Director and VP forums.Establish mechanisms for measuring product success: adoption metrics, recommendation accuracy, vendor engagement, cost impact, and system extensibility.Mentor and coach product managers and cross-functional partners on best practices in building platform products in ambiguous domains.Basic qualifications- Bachelor's degree- Experience owning/driving roadmap strategy and definition- Experience with feature delivery and tradeoffs of a product- Experience contributing to engineering discussions around technology decisions and strategy related to a product- Demonstrated track record of defining product strategy and vision in ambiguous, domains where the problem, opportunity, and solution are not fully defined.Preferred qualification - Experience in project management methodologies, business analysis, or process improvement- Experience collaborating with UX, Product, and technical partners- Knowledge of supply chain management concepts - forecasting, planning, sourcing, optimization and logistics or equivalentAmazon is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of protected veteran status, disability, or other legally protected status.Our inclusive culture empowers Amazonians to deliver the best results for our customers.
