    Description

    Want to change the way people watch content online? Help create the future of digital entertainment with Amazon Prime Video! We are changing the way millions of customers enjoy movies and TV shows through Amazon Prime Video. Our mission is to build the widest selection of video content and make it easy for customers to enjoy great content wherever and whenever they want. To help us fulfill this mission, we are looking for a Programming and Categorization Manager who is customer-obsessed and detail-oriented to help grow Amazon Prime Video across Emerging Latin America (ELA)-a region spanning 16 Spanish-speaking countries, including Argentina (AR), Chile (CL), and Colombia (CO). If you want to operate at start-up speed, solve complex programming challenges, and build a service customers love, Amazon Prime Video might just be the place for you.

    The ELA Regional Programming team is responsible for maximizing customer value and engagement across the region through disciplined portfolio planning, data-informed content evaluation, and precise release execution. As Programming and Categorization Manager, you will provide essential operational ownership of the ELA programming calendar and categorization mechanisms, supporting the team"s longer-term strategic planning-which is led by a separate team member focused on strategy and portfolio direction.

    This role requires independent ownership of day-to-day programming operations. You will manage the local slate, execute scheduling and categorization changes, run programming mechanisms and documentation, and coordinate cross-functionally to keep the calendar on track. The ideal candidate brings operational maturity, strong attention to detail, and the judgment to work effectively across a complex stakeholder base spanning Content, Marketing, Planning, Finance and Business.

    • Content categorization and adjustments to optimize content windowing
    • Drive repromotion alignment strategies to deliver engagement
    • Deliver Local and Global Slate presentations and screeners to internal stakeholders and partners
    • Serve as key POC for partners on title visibility, ads, and programming updates; maintain the Customer-Facing List (upcoming launches, subs/dubs, video assets, key art) and flag updates to CAM
    • Act as key POC for Content/Programming systems (e.g. Project Q / GLC...) ensuring the product works for ELA markets and channeling local feedback for adjustments
    • Track HVAs, TPS, and PVC% projections for Local and Global content; flag concerns and opportunities specific to ELA
    • Deliver WBR inputs, wins, misses, and title-level performance flags
    • Contribute content performance and programming inputs to MBR, QBR, and POR business reviews
    • Coordinate with global programming teams on regional inputs to planning cycles and content evaluations
    • Build trusted relationships across stakeholders in Content, Marketing, Planning, and Finance
    • Support senior leaders with materials preparation, analysis, and follow-up

    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.
