Ktlo Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Are you passionate about leveraging GenAI and advanced AWS technologies to simplify builder experience and accelerate innovations at AWS scale. We are building a new organization, AWS Builder Acceleration (AWSBA), focused on reducing toil and increasing building efficiency across AWS builders. Our mission is to accelerate AWS builder teams' innovation by eliminating friction throughout the software development and operational lifecycle.

Through AI based automated solutions and centralized service management, we address fundamental challenges including Keep The Light On (KTLO) service maintenance burden, launch readiness complexities, and recurring operational load. Through continuous collaboration with builder teams to identify emerging challenges, we shape our strategic roadmap to reinvent the development and operational ecosystem.
We are seeking an experienced Sr. TPM to lead AWSBA org to simplify and accelerate the software development experience for 20,000+ AWS engineers

You will shape AWS builder experience from the ground up with a singular mission: make software development, deployment and maintenance simpler across AWS. Success requires building services and tools that reduce friction, listening closely to what your internal customers tell you gets in the way of building, influencing the Amazon Software Builder Experience (ASBX) roadmap, and driving transformation for engineering teams. You will harness advanced technologies, including AI-powered tooling, agentic workflows, and innovative AWS solutions, to create next-generation software builder experience at AWS scale.
This role requires ownership, autonomy, and an ability to deliver results

You should be a self-starter with a bias towards independent problem solving. Clear communication and prioritization will be important as you partner with stakeholders to plan, design, and deliver game changing builder experiences to accelerate innovation. Your passion for improving builder experiences, and proven experience managing complex technology projects, will help you make strong strategic judgments.

Your expertise is deep and broad. You start with the customers (builders) and work backwards to develop a coherent vision for services and tools that support the efficiency, flexibility and scale that builders expect from us. This role requires working with builders across AWS teams along with high visibility to senior leaders at AWS.

You will be responsible for setting up and driving the goals for AWS Builder Acceleration org and join a select team of innovators creating the next generation of AWS builder experiences that will shape the company's future.
About You
You should have deep expertise in the architecture and business use of AWS technologies. You recognize the transformative potential of generative AI in software development and are excited to pioneer AI-powered builder experiences that fundamentally change how developers write, debug, deploy and operate code at scale. You remain technically hands-on and close to the technology despite your leadership role

You're passionate about developer experience and get frustrated by inefficiencies that make building software unnecessarily difficult. You understand the challenges AWS developers face today and have a clear vision for improvement. You spend time listening to teams across AWS and validating that your teams are working on the right problems, and the solutions meaningfully simplify the AWS developer experience across all teams.

You're comfortable maintaining focused scope and saying "no" to distractions, even when they come from senior stakeholders. You recognize that exceptional execution within a focused mission creates more impact than diluting efforts across too many initiatives. You're deeply self-critical, actively seek customer feedback, and are willing to challenge the status quo.

You have strong backbone - able to voice opinions confidently, make difficult decisions, and defend your position when working with leaders across AWS.
