A day in the life
This is a wide-ranging role that involves partnering closely with other technical leaders, engaging with internal customers and influencing program leaders. As an SDM, you completely own your space and are empowered to define strategy, roadmap and the metrics. This requires managing overall product, including execution and delivery by a specialized team that is at the center of Amazon’s next-generation architecture. One day you may be contributing to key documents, and another you may be leading sprint planning for your team, or general product prioritization and execution. Next, you may be plugged into an important operational issue that is impacting the health of the Store, influencing your team to make the best decision for the customer in the moment.
