Amazon Associate Jobs in Edison, NJ (NOW HIRING)

The Creators team goal is to make Amazon the Earth's most desired destination for commerce influencers, associates (publishers, bloggers, and more) and their content. We are a team of innovators that tackle difficult problems, and are laser-focused on building and enhancing products and experiences that drive growth for Creators. We own the Creator product suite across Amazon to ensure a cohesive experience, experiment with and align compensation structures, and launch features that reinforce feelings of achievement for Creators in addition to monetary compensation. We seek to strengthen creators' sense of community, fandom, credibility, and provide positive feedback loops. Our BD team on Creators directly collaborates with strategic customers to build new, industry-specific partnership opportunities that directly impact and transform the way our Creators can partner, create, and earn from us at scale.
We are seeking a talented, highly motivated Principal Business Development Tech leader to own and scale two critical partnership portfolios for the Creators organization: (1) enterprise network partnerships that extend Amazon's reach through scaled creator engagement via third-party networks, and (2) creative tooling and technology partnerships that integrate best-in-class content creation capabilities directly into creator workflows. This role will be responsible for leading complex technical integration workstreams-including API design, data sharing frameworks, attribution models, and platform interoperability-while simultaneously managing commercial negotiations, P&L ownership, and cross-functional alignment across Legal, Policy, Engineering, Product, Finance, and Creator Success teams. As a principal-level leader, you will set the strategic direction for our partnerships portfolio, identify whitespace opportunities and emerging trends in the creator economy, and influence senior leadership on investment frameworks and long-term partnership strategy. You will operate with equal fluency across enterprise deal negotiations, API architecture discussions, and executive-level business reviews, serving as the connective tissue between external partners and Amazon's internal ecosystem.

They have a demonstrated track record of owning P&L responsibility, driving measurable business outcomes at scale, and navigating legal, compliance, and policy frameworks inherent to partnerships involving third-party creator networks and multi-party commercial arrangements.
