    Description

    If you"ve ever wondered how Amazon knows what millions of sellers need and whether the changes we make improve their experience, that"s the work our team does.

    We are seeking a Senior Program Manager to own and drive our cross-organizational SP Satisfaction strategy and deliver measurable seller experience improvements. This role requires you to define program direction, work independently across organizations, influence Director and VP organizations, and translate complex satisfaction data into clear executive narratives that drive action. This role is for someone who thrives at the intersection of data, strategy, and stakeholder influence who can own the accountability framework that ensures the right changes happen and that sellers feel the difference.

    The Selling Partner Satisfaction & Strategic Insights (SPSSI) team owns the measurement, research, and strategic insights that inform how Amazon improves the selling experience for over 2 million sellers worldwide. We track satisfaction across every major seller touchpoint, identify what"s driving dissatisfaction, and partner with teams across the organization to turn those insights into measurable improvements.

    Key job responsibilities

    You must be able to:

    • Define and manage the SP satisfaction program strategy, including goal-setting, roadmap reviews, and escalation when goals are at risk
    • Own executive-level reporting mechanisms: monthly kingpin goal updates, WBR satisfaction slides, quarterly QBR satisfaction narratives, and CX slide content for CEO/Board-level review
    • Lead cross-organizational stakeholder engagement with partner teams to align roadmaps and ensure committed actions are delivered on schedule
    • Translate satisfaction data, verbatim seller feedback, and research findings into clear, seller-backward narratives that senior leaders use to make decisions
    • Drive the quarterly satisfaction flash synthesizing trends, identifying emerging risks, and providing actionable recommendations to leadership and partner teams
    • Identify gaps between what partner teams are building and what sellers are telling us, and use data to influence prioritization of seller experience improvements
    • Coordinate with researchers and data scientists on the team to ensure insights are timely, accurate, and connected to the right stakeholder actions
    • Partner with the team"s Sr. Product Manager and Research Scientists to ensure product strategy aligns with program goals and that measurement capabilities evolve to meet emerging business needs

    A day in the life

    Your week has a rhythm. You review the latest satisfaction data with the team, identify what moved and why, and prepare WBR callouts. Early in the month, you"re updating kingpin goals, writing the status, confirming initiative ECDs with partner teams, and flagging risks before they become misses. You"re in regular contact with stakeholders across teams that own satisfaction drivers, not to do their work, but to make sure the satisfaction signals reach the right people and drive the right actions. The problems you"ll work on are real and consequential and you drive the strategy that shapes how we improve the business for our Selling Partners.

    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
