The AI agent era is here, and you"ll define how the market understands it.

Amazon Bedrock and AgentCore represent one of the fastest-growing product areas in AWS history, powering the next generation of AI-native applications and autonomous agents for the world"s largest enterprises. We"re looking for a Principal Product Marketing Manager - Tech to serve as the senior technical marketing authority for this portfolio: the person who defines the category narrative, builds the positioning architecture, and sets the craft standard that the broader PMM team executes against.

This is a category-defining IC role. You"ll solve the hardest positioning problems in the portfolio, create the frameworks others build on, and serve as the external voice customers and analysts associate with AWS"s agentic AI vision. Your work will directly shape how CxOs, developers, and the broader market perceive the most consequential platform shift since cloud.

You"ll operate at the intersection of product strategy, market shaping, and executive storytelling, partnering with VPs, GMs, and Distinguished Engineers across Amazon Bedrock, Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, and Strands Agents (our open-source agent SDK).

Why This Role

  • Category authority. Your job is to be the deepest, sharpest thinker on agentic AI positioning in AWS.
  • Strategic influence through craft. Direct partnership with VPs and GMs who treat exceptional marketing thinking as a first-class input to product strategy.
  • Keynote-level visibility. re:Invent mainstage, Gartner/Forrester interactions, CEO-level customer conversations, and AWS leadership narratives.
  • Multiplier impact. Mentor PMMs, establish quality bars, and build reusable frameworks that scale your thinking beyond what one person could ship alone.
  • Greenfield opportunity. This category is being defined in real time. You"ll have the ambiguity (and the autonomy) to shape it.

Key job responsibilities

  • Define the category narrative. Establish the positioning architecture, competitive frameworks, and market vocabulary for AWS"s agentic AI portfolio. This is the scaffolding the rest of the team builds on.
  • Solve the hardest positioning problems. Take on the products and capabilities where the "right way to talk about this" doesn"t yet exist, translating deep architectural complexity into mental models that move markets.
  • Shape product strategy through market insight. Synthesize customer patterns, competitive dynamics, analyst perspectives, and usage data into strategic recommendations that influence VP-level roadmap decisions across multiple product teams.
  • Serve as the leading external voice. Represent AWS"s agentic AI vision in keynotes, analyst briefings (Gartner, Forrester, IDC), and executive customer engagements. You are the named expert for this category.
  • Elevate the team"s craft. Set quality bars for positioning, messaging, and launch execution. Coach PMMs on the "how." Create playbooks and templates that encode your expertise into scalable assets.
  • Lead cross-portfolio launches. Orchestrate high-visibility launches that span multiple product teams, require senior leadership alignment, and set new benchmarks for impact.
  • Drive category-level adoption strategy. Develop cross-product adoption narratives that connect builder journeys from experimentation through production, working across developer relations, solutions architecture, field enablement, and partner teams.

About the Company

A

Amazon.com Inc

At Amazon, we don’t wait for the next big idea to present itself. We envision the shape of impossible things and then we boldly make them reality. So far, this mindset has helped us achieve some incredible things. Let’s build new systems, challenge the status quo, and design the world we want to live in. We believe the work you do here will be the best work of your life.

Wherever you are in your career exploration, Amazon likely has an opportunity for you. Our research scientists and engineers shape the future of natural language understanding with Alexa. Fulfillment center associates around the globe send customer orders from our warehouses to doorsteps. Product managers set feature requirements, strategy, and marketing messages for brand new customer experiences. And as we grow, we’ll add jobs that haven’t been invented yet.

It’s Always Day 1
At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

Our Leadership Principles
Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
