Principal Tech Business Development, Last Mile Products & Tech

Description

At Amazon, we are working to be the most customer-centric company on earth. One experience that we are constantly improving is how we fulfill and deliver orders right to the customer’s doorstep. Our goal is to exceed the expectations of all our customers by ensuring that their orders (no matter how large or small) are delivered where and when they need them — as quickly, accurately and cost effectively as possible. To meet this goal, Amazon is continually striving to innovate and provide best-in-class delivery experiences through the introduction of pioneering new products, technology and services in Last Mile Delivery. This is a unique opportunity to play a key role in the rapidly growing Amazon Logistics organization. The Last Mile initiative is a highly visible program (internally and with our customers). Come join our team and help us make history!

The Principal Tech Business Developer will be a key member of the Last Mile Products and Technology team, with responsibility for influencing business and product strategy (as a trusted advisor) and negotiating a wide range of deal types in collaboration with the Geospatial/Maps and Connected Vehicle product and technology teams. These efforts will culminate in the launch of new products and services that directly impact Last Mile delivery operations, including deployment of cutting edge driver and delivery vehicle technologies. For each project, you will lead required diligence, develop the deal structure and negotiating strategy, and own the negotiations end-to-end to closure. To be successful in this position, you need to be comfortable interfacing with C-Suite executives from companies of all sizes (from start-ups to industry leaders) and earning trust across multiple internal Amazon teams (e.g., finance, legal, corporate development, operations, etc.) to achieve your goals. You should also have familiarity with a range of deal types, including direct experience with product development, technology licensing and integration. A successful candidate will be highly analytical and resourceful, and will have the ability to work independently under time constraints to meet deadlines. The candidate will have a proven track record of end-to-end deal ownership and success delivering results in a fast-paced and dynamic business environment.
