The Senior TPM will operate at the intersection of AI regulation, data governance, and technical implementation - translating complex legal obligations into enforceable controls, scalable compliance architectures, and measurable outcomes. You will work across Amazon"s decentralized business structure to ensure consistent AI governance that delivers on four pan-Amazon outcomes: Quality, Compliance, Assurance, and Speed.

2. End-to-End Technical Design - Lead cross-functional design across infrastructure and business teams to architect compliance solutions. Define how requirements flow from policy standards control objectives automated enforcement, driving toward zero-touch compliance.

3. Implementation & Delivery - Drive execution across Legal, AI Security, Privacy, and engineering teams. Own work-back plans against regulatory effective dates, manage dependencies, track risks/blockers, and ensure demonstrable compliance posture for regulators and auditors.

4. Regulatory Interpretation & Strategy - Participate in high-judgment debates across senior business, technology, legal, and public policy leaders on ambiguous requirements (e.g., HRAIS classification, training data disclosure obligations, deemed provider scope).
