    Job Description

    Do you want to define the future of how hundreds of millions of Amazon customers prove who they are? AI-powered attacks are making passwords and legacy multi-factor authentication increasingly vulnerable, and our Identity team is responding by building the next generation of authentication - passkeys, digital IDs, phishing-resistant phone-number verification, and more. As a Senior Product Manager, Technical on this team, you will own the end-to-end product lifecycle for these new authentication experiences, from problem discovery through launch and optimization, across surfaces including desktop, mobile, TV, and smart-home devices.

    You will combine deep customer empathy with rigorous metrics analysis to understand how customers sign in, where friction exists, and what solutions will earn their trust. You will partner with engineering, design, legal, and cross-functional stakeholders to ship experiences that protect customers while keeping interactions simple and intuitive. If you are energized by solving complex security challenges at massive scale and want your work to be felt every time a customer interacts with Amazon, we would love to hear from you.

    Key job responsibilities

    • Define and evolve the authentication product strategy - assess customer needs, market trends, and emerging threats to set a clear vision for passwordless and phishing-resistant experiences across your area of ownership.
    • Own the product roadmap from concept to launch, prioritizing initiatives based on customer impact and business value while managing cross-functional dependencies with engineering, design, and legal teams.
    • Write detailed product requirements, user stories, and success criteria; partner with designers on prototypes and with engineers on architecture reviews to ensure solutions are scalable, secure, and intuitive.
    • Analyze adoption metrics, customer behavior data, and performance indicators to identify optimization opportunities, root-cause issues, and inform roadmap investments.
    • Collaborate with senior leaders, partner teams, and stakeholders across the company to build alignment on new authentication initiatives and influence organization-wide priorities.

    A day in the life

    Your morning might start by reviewing authentication success-rate dashboards and digging into an anomaly you spotted in passkey enrollment metrics. After a design review for a new digital ID verification flow, you join your engineering team"s sprint planning to refine acceptance criteria and discuss technical trade-offs. In the afternoon, you draft a product requirements document for a phishing-resistant verification feature, then meet with a partner team to align on an upcoming launch across multiple device surfaces. Between meetings, you connect with customers through usability studies and support-ticket analysis to keep your roadmap grounded in real needs.

    About the team

    Our Identity Services team owns one of the most highly trafficked experiences at Amazon - the moment a customer signs in. We support products like Retail, Alexa, Prime Video, and Amazon Pay across every device type, and our mission is to make authentication secure, simple, and invisible. We are dedicated to mentorship and career growth. Our team has a broad mix of experience levels, and we pair new members with one-on-one mentors and thoughtful document reviews so everyone develops into a well-rounded product manager ready to take on increasingly complex challenges.

    About Company

    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.
