We are looking for a Director of Product Management to own the product strategy for corporate hiring technology end to end. You will lead the integrated roadmap across recruiting, interviewing, offer management, onboarding, and internal mobility, while strategically influencing partner technology teams. You will be instrumental in delivering Amazon's Future of Hiring, a strategic vision grounded in the principle that technology should enable human connection and decision-making, and you own the product roadmap that turns it into reality. This is also a moment of change in how we build: we are actively experimenting with leaner, AI-assisted ways of working, and you will help shape the product operating model as those experiments mature.
Key job responsibilities
- Own the integrated product roadmap for corporate hiring technology, prioritizing investments across recruiting, interviewing, offer management, onboarding, and internal mobility
- Drive the experience vision across the hiring lifecycle, ensuring candidates, recruiters, and hiring managers experience one coherent product rather than disconnected tools
- Define and operationalize a quality of hire measurement framework that connects recruiting signals to post-hire outcomes
- Build and develop a high-performing product management team, and help shape how the discipline works as we experiment with AI-assisted delivery
A day in the life
You spend your time at the intersection of strategy and execution. On any given week, you might work with engineering leaders to prioritize the next quarter's investments across scheduling, onboarding, and internal mobility. You review data on where candidates drop out of the hiring funnel, then translate those signals into roadmap decisions that your team executes against.
You dive deep with recruiters and hiring managers, understanding where the experience breaks down. You see breakdowns as product architecture problems, not process problems, and you drive solutions that work across 60+ countries with different regulatory requirements and operating norms.
You help shape how we build. We are experimenting with leaner, AI-assisted ways of working, and you will help define the product operating model and the standard for how product managers exercise judgment as those approaches mature. This is a chance to help shape how the discipline works, not simply inherit it.
You also invest in your team. You define what world-class product management looks like, build the operating model, develop your people, and set the standard for how PMs exercise judgment.
About the team
Our team builds the systems that power every corporate hire at Amazon. We process millions of applications annually, serve recruiters and hiring managers, and support candidates through every step from job discovery through their first day on the job. Our products operate across 60+ countries with localized workflows for each market.
Our vision is the Future of Hiring: a living strategy grounded in the principle that technology should enable human connection and decision-making, not replace it. We are building toward AI-powered competency assessments, intelligent candidate-role matching, automated scheduling, agentic sourcing, and quality feedback loops that connect hiring decisions to post-hire outcomes. This vision evolves quarterly as we learn and the landscape shifts.
You will lead a team of approximately 40 product managers and program leaders across four direct reports, partnering closely with engineering, UX, operations, and data science to bring this vision to life.
