Principal Product Manager - Tech, FBA Inventory Optimization
Bellevue, Washington
Employer: Amazon
Industry: Project/Program/Product Management--Technical
Salary: $161900 per year
Job type: Full-Time
Amazon's Fulfilled by Amazon (FBA) Inventory Optimization team seeks a Principal PM-T with proven ability to influence across multiple organizations. Over the last 20 years, the share of physical gross merchandise sales sold on Amazon by third-party Sellers has grown from 3% to over 60% in 2023. With over 2 million Sellers in multiple countries listing their products for sale on the Amazon Marketplace, these Sellers are increasingly critical to delivering on Amazon's vision of offering the Earth's largest selection and lowest prices.
"Third-party sellers are kicking our first party butt. Badly. And it's a high bar too because our first-party business has grown dramatically over that period, from $1.6 billion in 1999 to $117 billion this past year. The compound annual growth rate for our first-party business in that time period is 25%. But in that same time, third-party sales have grown from $0.1 billion to $160 billion - a compound annual growth rate of 52%. To provide an external benchmark, eBay's gross merchandise sales in that period have grown at a compound rate of 20%, from $2.8 billion to $95 billion. Why did independent sellers do so much better selling on Amazon than they did on other public seller platforms? And why were independent sellers able to grow so much faster than Amazon's own highly organized first-party sales organization? There isn't one answer, but we do know one extremely important part of the answer: We helped independent sellers compete against our first-party business by investing in and offering them the very best selling tools we could imagine and build. There are many such tools, including tools that help sellers manage inventory, process payments, track shipments, create reports, and sell across borders - and we're inventing more every year. But of great importance are Fulfillment by Amazon and the Prime membership program. In combination, these two programs meaningfully improved the customer experience of buying from independent sellers." -Jeff Bezos, 2018 Letter to Shareholders
You will join a dynamic team at the forefront of this vision, to grow and optimize our suite of Inventory Optimization solutions creating a richer end-to-end Seller Experience (SX) while improving FBA profitability.
