    Description

    We are looking for a finance-minded Program Manager to support capital planning operations, co-own the annual operating plan (OP1/OP2) process, and contribute to broader strategic programs across the Technology Supply Chain (Tech-SC). This role sits at the intersection of finance, process automation, and program execution - you will support the capital appropriation request (CAR) process, help pull together business cases and OP entitlements, and provide the financial rigor that shapes how Tech-SC plans and allocates investment.

    You do not need to be a career finance professional - but you should be comfortable with financial concepts, able to build a business case, and eager to grow into a role where financial analysis drives program decisions. This is not a passive reporting role: you will co-own the OP1/OP2 planning cycle alongside the Rhythm of the Business PM, help drive automation of capital planning processes, and execute on the cross-functional Supply Chain Organization Program Enablement (SCOPE) portfolio alongside the broader team. The specific balance of capital planning versus broader program work will be shaped with your manager based on team needs.

    • Provide financial analysis and direction across SCOPE"s strategic initiative portfolio

    A day in the life

    Your day blends financial analysis, program execution, and automation. You"ll partner with SCOPE program owners to build business cases and size OP entitlements, support the CAR process alongside capital planning owners, and co-drive OP1/OP2 inputs with the Rhythm of the Business PM. You"ll work across partner teams - helping them navigate intake and planning decisions. A recurring theme: finding where manual financial and planning work can be automated with AI, then building the agents and mechanisms to eliminate it. You"ll operate with high visibility to senior Tech-SC leadership.

    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

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.
