Principal Product Manager - Tech, Amazon Selection and Catalog Systems (ASCS)

Amazon"s supply chain catalog data covers product barcodes, package configuration/hierarchies, quantity, dimensions, and expiration etc. that directly impact operational efficiency across supply chain workflows. Today, catalog data defects create fulfilment challenges that drive hundreds of millions of dollars in operational costs and limit our ability to grow selection. This initiative impacts multiple programs visible to Amazon Senior leadership, reduces operational costs for Selling Partners and Fulfillment Centers while driving revenue growth through expanded selection.

As the single-threaded owner, you will drive end-to-end product strategy for Amazon's supply chain catalog data which covers what "source of truth" means for supply chain catalog, drive the roadmap from supplier data ingestion through fulfillment consumption, and align diverse organizations around a coherent, customer-obsessed strategy. Your scope spans data quality measurement, defect elimination, industry standards adoption, catalog data model evolution, and the development of new Generative AI and Large Language Model-based quality algorithms operating at massive scale. You will bring clarity to deeply complex and ambiguous problems, operating with complete independence to deliver catalog data that is structured, governed, and optimized for operational use. The ideal candidate thrives in high-scale, ambiguous environments and can drive cross-functional alignment across business, and engineering stakeholders to ensure defect-free fulfillment and supply chain operations.

Key job responsibilities

5. Influence senior leadership and drive cross-org alignment. Communicate trade-offs clearly, build consensus across competing priorities, and create audit mechanisms for VP-level stakeholders.

6. Partner with engineering and science to ship GenAI-powered solutions. Translate LLM-based validation capabilities into products that improve catalog accuracy and deliver measurable cost savings.

7. Define catalog data model evolution and governance. Ensure supply chain catalog data is structured, complete, and optimized for consumption across procurement and fulfillment workflows.
