Principal Product Manager, Technical, Database Services

Amazon Development Center U.S., Inc.
Seattle, WA Full Time
POSTED ON 5/29/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 9/25/2026

DESCRIPTION

Are you ready to reimagine how hundreds of thousands of builders interact with AWS databases every week? Can you imagine a future where millions of compute instances are upgraded to the latest database version in seconds, with zero downtime?

The RDS Platform team is looking for an exceptional product leader. This role is a rare intersection of UI/UX creativity and scale across a fleet of millions of compute instances.

You'll own the RDS Console—the interface that customers use to manage their database infrastructure. We need someone who can reimagine the entire console experience for the next generation of AWS builders. The challenge is to take complex database operations and make them intuitive and scalable.

Beyond the console itself, you'll drive platform capabilities that operate at extraordinary scale, systems that orchestrate upgrades across millions of database instances. You'll design how we keep customers informed through notifications and the AWS Health console, ensuring they always know what's happening with their critical infrastructure. Most importantly, you'll give customers more control over their patching and upgrade experience—transforming what has traditionally been a source of anxiety into something they can confidently manage on their own terms.

We're looking for an exceptional product manager, a builder who's obsessed with delivering for the next generation of AWS customers.
