    About the Role

    Platform Core Engineering (PCE) builds the foundational systems, frameworks, and tooling that Twitch"s engineers build on every day. As a Senior Product Manager on PCE, your customers are developers, and your success depends on earning their trust. You will own a platform product area and be measured on whether developers actually adopt, rely on, and advocate for what you ship.

    This is a deeply technical, senior individual-contributor role. You are expected to be hands-on with modern AI development tools, to understand the technology you are shaping at a real level (not just at the surface), and to hold credibility in a room full of engineers.

    You can be based out of one of the Twitch offices including San Francisco, Seattle, Los Angeles, Irvine, or New York City.

    You Will

    • Own the strategy and roadmap for a PCE platform area, balancing near-term developer needs with a 1 to 2 year technical vision.
    • Treat developers as your customers: understand their workflows, earn their trust, and prioritize the capabilities that make them faster and more effective.
    • Work directly with Senior Engineering Managers and Principal Engineers to define technical and organizational needs and build a cohesive platform ecosystem.
    • Define and drive the platform metrics that matter.
    • Drive alignment across dependent teams, resolve competing priorities, and communicate technical tradeoffs.
    • Own launches end-to-end, including migration paths, documentation, and adoption, so capabilities land and stick.
    • Partner with tooling customers across engineering, ML infrastructure, MLOps, and data science to ensure the platform serves every developer persona.
    • Champion hands-on use of modern AI development tools, setting the bar for how the org builds with agents, MCPs, and context tooling.

    Perks

    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.
