What are the responsibilities and job description for the Sr. Manager, Product, Amazon WorkSpaces position at Amazon Web Services (AWS)?
Description
As part of the AWS Solutions organization, we have a vision to provide business applications, leveraging Amazon’s unique experience and expertise, that are used by millions of companies worldwide to manage day-to-day operations. We will accomplish this by accelerating our customers’ businesses through delivery of intuitive and differentiated technology solutions that solve enduring business challenges. We blend vision with curiosity and Amazon’s real-world experience to build opinionated, turnkey solutions.
With a highly distributed workforce that not only moves between home and office, but all crosses corporate boundaries, it is important that corporate data remains secure no matter where it is accessed, which is a key reason we built Amazon Web Services End User Computing (EUC) so employees and contractors can securely access desktops, data, and application from anywhere on any device. Our business is growing immensely, and we are looking for product leaders to help us achieve the next level of scale. More information about Amazon End- User Computing can be found here: https://aws.amazon.com/products/end-user-computing/.
Key job responsibilities
We are looking for a Sr. Manager to lead the product strategy, development, launch, and ongoing execution for new applications.

Given the breadth of these new solutions, this role will require coordination across many internal and external teams and will be visible at the highest levels of the company. You’ll lead a team that works with our customers, partners, software vendors, and operational stakeholders to prioritize roadmap features, and spearhead the definition of new capabilities through expertly crafted business requirements documents.
