Amazon Web Services (AWS) is seeking a Principal Technical Program Manager to lead cross-organizational hardware component initiatives within our Core Hardware Engineering organization. This is a high-impact leadership role responsible for the full lifecycle of mechanical and electrical components that power the entire AWS server fleet, from early architecture and design through manufacturing readiness, production ramp, and long-term fleet sustainment. About the Role Core Hardware Engineering is a horizontal organization that provides foundational hardware engineering capabilities across multiple vertical product lines within AWS Infrastructure. The mechanical portfolio includes fans, heatsinks, liquid cooling systems, cold plates, quick disconnects, chassis, rack frames, cables, and connectors. The electrical portfolio includes motherboards, power boards, system boards, PCIe switches and retimers, CPUs, and memory. As a Principal Technical Program Manager, you will own the strategy and delivery of component-level outcomes that serve every server platform in the AWS fleet. What You Will Do You will define and deliver complex component initiatives with broad cross-organizational impact in areas where business and architectural strategy has not yet been established. Your work begins before vertical server programs are formally defined and extends through manufacturing and long-term fleet sustainment, an end-to-end lifecycle span unique to this role. You will own a portfolio spanning multiple component domains, dozens of active qualifications, concurrent technology transitions, and fleet-wide operations. You will orchestrate deliverables across multiple hardware engineering teams, managing prioritization and trade-offs between design, new product introduction, manufacturing, and sustaining operations to ensure engineering capacity is allocated against the highest-impact work. You will drive strategic supplier relationships to reduce component lead times, establishing joint development roadmaps, negotiating capacity commitments ahead of demand signals, and creating multi-source qualification paths. You will hold commitments across vertical product teams, data center operations, manufacturing test teams, and external vendors, establishing scalable mechanisms for roadmap inspection, manufacturing readiness reviews, and cross-team dependency tracking that operate independently of your direct involvement. You will deliver four primary outcomes: entitlement performance, manufacturing readiness, annualized failure rate and unsellable performance, and supply continuity, translating directly into platform readiness, cost reduction, and stability at scale.
