Amazon EC2 started in Cape Town in 2006 as a key AWS service, and now forms a building block for many of the more than 200 services in AWS. We are looking for a Technical Program Manager to join EC2. You will engage on energising and interesting problems, and define and deliver on goals which require changes across many different teams and services. You will need a technical background to understand and critique solutions, spot potential problems, and communicate how a problem will be solved at different levels of detail to others. Our team is very data driven so you’ll need to use data and metrics to support your narrative. Amazon Leadership principles guide our great collaborative and innovative culture. We have a flexible approach to solving problems, using agile principals to deliver value quickly but not binding ourselves to prescribed methodologies.Utility Computing (UC)
