Amazon's mission is to be "Earth's most customer-centric company," and our award-winning Amazon Customer Service (CS) team is an essential part of that mission. CS is one of the largest customer service organizations in the world. Our tens of thousands of Customer Service Associates (CSAs) around the globe provide world-class support to customers 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and in over 20 languages (and growing).
The Associate Experience (AE) organization powers CS by developing elegant customer- and CSA-facing products globally. These products offer effortless self-service and automation solutions to our customers. If customers prefer to interact with a human, we enable CSAs to effectively and elegantly solve customers' issues using our associate-facing products powered through human-centered design.

You will design mechanisms that transform how cross-functional teams - spanning Product, Technology, and Operations - collaborate to bring features from concept to launch readiness.
This is a high-impact role for a strategic leader who thrives in ambiguity, influences without authority across senior stakeholders, and has a track record of building mechanisms that scale. You will own the end-to-end strategy for intake transformation, change management evolution - including stakeholder management, User Acceptance Testing (UAT), and incubation - and product roadmap visibility. Your work will directly enable our vision to provide customers a convenient, high-quality, and delightful experience across all CS channels while empowering CSAs to focus on genuine human connection as technology handles complexity.
