Manager Knowledge Graph Jobs in Everett, WA (NOW HIRING)

AWS Marketing is seeking a strategic, technically proficient, and customer-embedded Marketing Technology & Operations Manager to support the Events, Sports, and Sponsorship (ESS) team. Modeled after the Forward Deployed Engineer concept, this role is designed to be deeply embedded with ESS sub-teams - sitting alongside stakeholders to understand their workflows firsthand and identify/build custom solutions that solve real operational problems.
This role is responsible for managing cross-functional operational programs including application security compliance, ESS' marketing technology strategy and administration, digital asset management, and workflow automation - all with a focus on being AI-native wherever possible. The ideal candidate thrives in ambiguity, can manage multiple concurrent workstreams, and is passionate about building scalable processes that are simplified and automated.
You will serve as the embedded technical partner for teams across Events, Sports, and Sponsorship - ensuring security compliance, tooling strategy, roadmap execution, and workflow efficiency

This role will partner cross-Marketing as well, partnering with Events Technology, Marketer Experience, Data Science & Engineering etc. Unlike a traditional program manager who operates at a distance, you will deploy directly to teams, observe pain points in real time, prototype solutions rapidly, and iterate based on immediate feedback. This role requires a balance of technical acumen, stakeholder management, an incredible ability to Invent and Simplify, and a Bias for Action to drive operational excellence across a complex marketing organization.
