We are seeking a Support Engineering Manager to oversee our global footprint of CX Support Engineers. Support Engineers (SE) investigate individual customer and fleet impacting issues, serve as SMEs for our product, engineering, marketing, and CX teams, and provide personalized escalation support to senior leadership.

The Support Engineering Manager role carries significant responsibility for managing complex technical escalations, ensuring strong stakeholder communication, and developing a high-performing engineering team. You will have the opportunity to operate with a high degree of ownership and independence, proactively managing, and driving operational improvements, while developing mechanisms that improve customer experience and team effectiveness. This includes the ability to independently lead a team, manage ambiguity, drive complex investigations, and influence cross-functional stakeholders.

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.

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 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.
