The Corporate Business Development (Corp BD) team is a centralized business development function that manages Amazon’s most complex and high-impact business deals and partnership activities.

Innovation is what makes our team tick. We improve our customers’ experiences, forging partnerships, striking deals, and driving strategies across a wide span of verticals.

If you thrive in a fast-paced environment where no two days are the same, this could be the team for you.

We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced Program Lead focused on empowering the team with AI-enabled solutions and process improvements that enhance our effectiveness. This unique role combines business strategy with emerging technology to transform how we identify, evaluate, execute and govern strategic partnerships and deal development across Amazon's businesses. Working closely with senior leadership, you'll identify opportunities where AI and automated solutions can be a force multiplier and scale our impact. This isn't about building complex technical systems – it's about understanding our business processes deeply and knowing when and how to apply AI solutions pragmatically. You'll be the bridge between business needs and technological possibilities, focusing on real-world applications that drive immediate value while setting the team up for the future.

The ideal candidate will be a strategic thinker who understands both business processes and the potential of AI to transform them. You should be passionate about innovation but practical in implementation, focusing on solutions that deliver real business value. This role requires someone who can build consensus, drive adoption, and maintain focus on business outcomes while navigating technological change.
