We are seeking a talented and motivated Product Launch Manager (PLM) who will drive the delivery of strategic new product initiatives to the field. As a customer facing technical product manager, the PLM will drive the launch of innovative products and solutions aimed at improving the efficiency and lowering the cost of Amazon’s next-generation Fulfillment, Sortation, and Delivery Centers.

Key job responsibilities
• As the onsite technical product manager, identify missed, incomplete, or latent customer requirements, and drive these requirements until they are either fixed, dispositioned, or incorporated into the product.

• Deliver the solution/system test plan, creating realistic, effective, and efficient data validation plans.
• Leverage product and operations knowledge to influence the Product Requirements and Functional Requirements early in the development process.
• Establish and develop relationships with Warehouse Operations early in the launch process and utilize these relationships to develop strategic partnerships throughout launch.
