As the world's most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform, AWS is disrupting the traditional infrastructure market and redefining how organizations consume technology. We strive to be the most employee and customer-centric company on Earth, and to get there, we need the most talented, bright, and driven people on our team.
We’re looking for a passionate, curious, and talented Technical Program Manager to join our HR team in support of a growing business segment which provides critical services for AWS national security customers.
