Full Job Description
We\'re hiring a Sr. Technical Product Manager, Fulfillment Integration to own the under-the-roof fulfillment flows and the supporting technical design for integration with new models/businesses that feed our Prime Air Drone Delivery Centers (PADDCs). You will define how an order is prepared, packaged, verified, and handed off to flight operations. You\'ll turn ambiguous, real-world constraints into crisp mechanisms, partnering with software, hardware, and operations to reduce latency and defects while enabling replication across sites.

If you thrive in an iterative environment, love shipping mechanisms that exist in the physical world, and enjoy working across software, operations, and infrastructure, this role is for you.

The ideal candidate is a creative, demonstrated product manager with superior analytical abilities. This opportunity requires excellent technical, problem-solving, and communication skills. You must be able to accurately prioritize projects, make sound judgments, and work to improve the customer experience. Skillset in operations management and aviation enthusiasm is a plus.

Key job responsibilities

Support site launches and retrofits; validate mechanisms on the floor, close the loop with data, and iterate quickly.

About the team

Prime Air\'s PADDC team designs and scales the ground systems that turn a customer click into a drone takeoff. We design both mobile deployment infrastructure and multi-pad permanent sites, plus the processes and software that connect PADDCs to Amazon networks and partner operations. Day to day, we turn ambiguous needs into buildable interfaces and site-ready plans, and work with engineering and operations to prototype, pilot, and harden changes before scaling. If you like building where software, hardware, and real-world operations meet-and seeing your decisions show up on a launch pad-you\'ll fit right in.
