Location: Arlington
Posted on: June 8, 2021

Job Description:

AWS Cryptography services enable customers to identify resources and establish secure network connections with other cloud and on-premises resources. Our services help customers create, manage, and deploy digital certificates based on strong cryptography and security best practices. Customers can move sensitive workloads to the cloud where they can benefit from strong identity and security controls that help meet internal and external compliance requirements.

We are looking for an innovative technical product manager with an interest in information security, identity, certificates, and public key infrastructure (PKI). We are looking for an entrepreneurial product manager to help flesh out and drive new opportunities in this space. It's a bold challenge with huge upside and great visibility. This is an opportunity to join a growing AWS service team, gain top-notch experience in cloud computing, and help bring new disruptive solutions to market at massive scale.

As a Senior Product Manager for AWS Cryptography you will:

• Understand our customers inside and out
• Develop product strategy and vision and translate it into creative, high quality, simple features
• Make the business decisions that grow the adoption and usage of our services and accelerate the growth of our overall security business
• Set prices, target the right customers, and focus our investments in the right areas
• Work closely with the engineering teams to design, schedule, and deliver in an agile environment to launch products to external customers
• Launch new features and make sure our sales, marketing, and PR teams are telling the most compelling story
• Invent on behalf of customers

You are a tenacious self-starter with a passion for secure cloud computing and who can serve as a strong advocate for our developer, corporate, and consumer customers. You have proven analytical capabilities, persuasive writing skills, Internet business experience, and the tenacity to develop ideas and thrive in a fast-paced start-up environment. You understand customer needs and the competitive landscape and can translate them into features with an unparalleled customer experience.

AWS has the most services and more features within those services, than any other cloud provider-from infrastructure technologies like compute, storage, and databases-to emerging technologies, such as machine learning and artificial intelligence, data lakes and analytics, and Internet of Things. Whether its Identity features such as access management and sign on, cryptography, console, builder & developer tools, and even projects like automating all of our contractual billing systems, AWS Platform is always innovating with the customer in mind. The AWS Platform team sustains over 750 million transactions per second.

Our team also puts a high value on work-life balance. Striking a healthy balance between your personal and professional life is crucial to your happiness and success here, which is why we aren't focused on how many hours you spend at work or online. Instead, we're happy to offer a flexible schedule so you can have a more productive and well-balanced life-both in and outside of work.

We have a formal mentor search application that lets you find a mentor that works best for you based on location, job family, job level etc. Your manager can also help you find a mentor or two, because two is better than one. In addition to formal mentors, we work and train together so that we are always learning from one another, and we celebrate and support the career progression of our team members.

Here at AWS, we embrace our differences. We are committed to furthering our culture of inclusion. We have ten employee-led affinity groups, reaching 40,000 employees in over 190 chapters globally. We have innovative benefit offerings, and we host annual and ongoing learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences. Amazon's culture of inclusion is reinforced within our 14 Leadership Principles, which remind team members to seek diverse perspectives, learn and be curious, and earn trust. https://blog.aboutamazon.com/
