Software Development Manager, Enterprise Device Management Platform

Application deadline: Jan 28 2026

Build the enterprise management platform that will make every Amazon device enterprise-ready. Youll lead the team solving a critical architectural challenge: replacing fragmented solutions across device families with a unified control plane that lets IT admins manage Echo Kindle Fire TV and Tablets through a single interface.

Heres what makes this role unique: youre not just managing a teamyoure architecting the foundation that will enable entirely new enterprise device businesses to launch. Most Amazon devices today lack enterprise management capabilities and the few that exist are fragmented across different teams with inconsistent implementations. Youll build the common primitives that every product line can leverage eliminating the need for each team to build enterprise features from scratch.

What problems will you solve:

- Eliminate the fragmentation that forces enterprise customers to learn different management interfaces for each Amazon device type
- Accelerate product line velocity by providing ready-to-use enterprise capabilities instead of requiring each team to build from scratch
- Create the single API contract that lets third-party management platforms integrate once and support all Amazon devices
- Balance the tension between shipping fast for urgent product launches and maintaining architectural integrity for long-term platform health

What youll build and own:

- The unified agent that runs on every Amazon device to enforce policies assess security posture and execute remote commands
- Cloud services for policy management device enrollment and posture reporting
- The external API that partners use to integrate with Amazon devices
- A team of engineers working across device-side code (Rust C C) and backend services

Youll partner directly with product line leaders to understand their enterprise needs make the hard calls about what goes into the platform versus what stays product-specific and serve as the technical voice to external partners. Your success will be measured by how fast you enable product lines to ship enterprise features and how seamlessly partners can integrate with Amazon devices.

If you love building durable platforms that unlock new business opportunities thrive in ambiguous problem spaces and want to see your work enable devices across Amazons entire portfolio this role is for you.
