Sr. Manager, Technical Program Manager, Alexa Connections

About the role

Come define what it means for AI to communicate on behalf of humans. With over 600 million Alexa-enabled devices in customers' homes, Amazon is entering a new era - where advances in generative AI are transforming Alexa from a reactive assistant into a proactive, deeply personal communications partner. Alexa+ represents a step-change in how people connect: with each other, their communities, and the digital world.

We are also pioneering real-time, multimodal AI primitives that power experiences across the Amazon ecosystem - spanning Alexa, Tablets, Fire TV, Ring, and beyond. Generative AI is not a feature here- it is foundational to how we build, ship, and scale.
