Principal Product Manager – Technical, Native AI Customer & Tech Experience, DLS Tech - Seattle | Amazon Job

Job Description

Amazon's Disability, Leave & Services (DLS) Product & Technology organization is looking for a Principal Product Manager – Technical to own the Native AI customer and technical experience. Your mission is to reimagine Leave, Accommodations, and Services as an AI-native experience, where an intelligent agent answers any employee's question correctly the first time, and where our own teams build and ship at machine speed. You will own the customer-facing AI experience and the technical strategy that makes it trustworthy at scale for millions of employees and their families.

This is a technically deep, greenfield charter. You will define what "AI-native" means for one of Amazon's most sensitive, high-stakes domains and prove it works, progressing up the Native AI stack from foundation models and knowledge, through orchestration and validation, to scoped autonomous operations. You will partner closely with engineering to engineer correctness, trust, and safety into every answer, across every worker class, plan, life event, region, channel, and audience.

● Own the strategy for answer correctness at scale across every worker class, plan, life event, region, channel, and audience (employee, manager, HR partner)
● Partner with engineering to build the validation, evaluation, and content-gating capabilities that let the team ship code and content as a single, safe change
● Drive the roadmap for agent-assisted operations, from agents that triage and propose, to agents that act within scoped, audited permissions
● Define the metrics for AI-native progress, human touchpoints between idea and production, idea-to-production cycle time, segment coverage, and time-to-correct
● Partner with product managers, engineering, and program teams to embed technical product direction from initiative inception

Preferred Qualifications:

- Experience providing and effectively communicating strategic and tactical recommendations based on data
- Experience developing test strategies and plans for complex hardware/software systems or systems of systems
- Knowledge of concepts like system architecture, optimization, system dynamics, system analysis, statistical analysis, reliability analysis, and decision making
- Experience in a direct or matrixed role leading technical and non-technical transformation project teams with a proven ability to work across broad functional teams
- Hands-on experience shipping AI-native or agentic customer experiences (foundation models, orchestration, evaluation)
