Sr. Manager, Global Marketing Tooling , Prime Video, MKTG AI, Automation & Tooling

About the role

The Global Marketing Tooling Product Manager will lead a team of product managers, and/or tooling specialists responsible for defining and delivering the marketing technology product portfolio across the global marketing organization. This is a people leadership role - the manager is accountable for building a high-performing team, developing talent, and creating the conditions for the team to deliver outsized impact against the organization's technology transformation goals. This role owns the team's collective product vision, strategy, and roadmap. The manager sets direction, allocates resources across workstreams, and ensures the team is focused on the highest-leverage opportunities. They remove blockers, coach team members through ambiguous problem spaces, and make escalation-level trade-off decisions when priorities compete. They are responsible for hiring, performance management, career development, and succession planning. The manager sits at the intersection of marketing operations, technology, and business strategy - operating as the connective tissue between their team, engineering partners, senior leadership, and global marketing stakeholders. They translate organizational strategy into clear team objectives, ensure alignment across cross-functional partners, and represent the team's work in executive-level business reviews. They build organizational confidence through consistent delivery, transparent communication, and a track record of developing strong leaders within their team. This role requires balancing strategic altitude with operational awareness. The manager must know when to dive deep into product decisions and when to empower their team to own outcomes independently. They champion a culture of customer obsession, data-driven decision-making, and continuous improvement - modeling the behaviors they expect from their team. The ideal candidate has a proven track record of building and scaling product teams, thrives in ambiguity, and is energized by developing people as much as delivering products. They bring the judgment to navigate large-scale change management, the influence to align senior stakeholders without authority, and the operational rigor to ensure their team delivers against commitments.
