    Description

    We"re looking for a Customer Success Manager who will be the connective tissue between our team and the internal customers we serve. This person will own the full lifecycle of customer engagement - from intake and validation through delivery and follow-up - while proactively identifying new teams that could benefit from our prototyping, design, and engineering services.

    This is not a passive support role. You"ll look around corners, anticipate needs, and find opportunities to grow our impact - all while being thoughtful about where to focus. You are approachable, resourceful, and coachable: you know when to dig in independently and when to identify the right people to move things forward.

    The ideal candidate is adaptable and resilient - energized by ambiguity and shifting priorities rather than overwhelmed by them. You are a self-starter who finds the work without being told, a strong communicator who tailors your message from engineers to leadership, and a fast learner driven by genuine curiosity. You"re scrappy and action-oriented: you get things done even when it"s not your lane, moving quickly to unblock customers and making smart decisions with incomplete information. You build trust across functions through consistent follow-through, transparency, and doing what you say you"ll do.

    Success in this role means starting with the customer"s problem and working backwards to find the best solution - their success is your success. You treat every interaction as if you own the outcome end-to-end, stepping across boundaries rather than passing the buck. You go beyond surface-level symptoms, digging into details to understand root causes. You proactively identify teams that should know about us and you"re thoughtful about how you engage them. You build credibility through follow-through and never stop learning - staying curious about your customers" worlds, new tools, and better ways to deliver.

    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.
