Job Title: Software Development Manager

DESCRIPTION
Do you have a passion for Automotive? Do you want to challenge the status quo of the in-car experience? Do you want to take on very ambiguous problems? If you answered yes to these questions, we have a dream job for you.

A day in the life
As a software development leader, you will build and lead a diverse team of engineers to solve technical problems that will enable our customers to use Alexa in their vehicles. You will be working with an assorted set of stakeholders, both internally at Amazon, and with some of our most strategic Automotive OEM partners. You will influence the roadmap and technology decisions that will drive future products and features that directly affect our growth in this critical space. A successful candidate is a motivator and an experienced leader who can hire high-caliber engineers and collaborate across matrixed organizations, with the ability to influence senior leadership.

About the hiring group
Alexa Auto’s vision is to bring the Alexa experience into the car, so you can take her with you on the go. Voice technology shines in environments where you’re occupied with other tasks. That’s a big reason why Alexa has become so popular in places like the kitchen or living room, and why we see the opportunity in automotive as big as the smart home. With Alexa in the car, customers can use their voice to play music, control in-cabin comfort features like AC/heater, control smart home devices from the car, and access tens of thousands of skills built by third-party developers – all while keeping their hands on the wheel and eyes on the road.
