A Sr. Product Manager - Tech focuses on data center modeling, simulation and validation infrastructure, creates and drives new product and testing capability development initiatives enabling comprehensive pre-deployment validation within our rapidly expanding global data center fleet.
This role provides a unique opportunity to engage with Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) simulation environments, digital twin technologies, and the exceptional engineers that develop and operate them under SMS (System Modeling and Simulations) team.
The Sr. Technical Product Manager with SMS focus utilizes their expertise to:
Engage with internal Amazon customers including Electrical, Mechanical, Controls & In-rack Power product development teams, HV Design, IRQ, FE, Hardware Engineering to capture critical validation, testing, and simulation needs for First-of-a-Kind (FOAK) products today and in the future
Utilize those insights to identify specific lab capability requirements, create a product vision, and own the development roadmap for the System Modeling and Simulations (SMS) team's simulation and HIL testing infrastructure
Coordinate between multiple teams spanning electrical, mechanical/thermal modeling, and systems integration to develop compelling business cases that substantiate the value of pre-deployment validation, define capability prioritization, and outline resources required to implement the team roadmap
Drive continuous advancements in simulation fidelity and testing coverage across electrical systems (generators, UPS, switchgear, protection relays, transformers) and mechanical systems (chillers, DAHUs, TAHUs, liquid cooling, cooling towers), and communicate technical direction to Sr. Management
Own and drive the complete product lifecycle of SMS lab capabilities from concept and lab build-out through full-scale deployment of validated simulation frameworks and eventual refresh of testing methodologies as technology evolves
Develop validation strategies and deployment frameworks that improve engineering rigor, reduce costly mid-construction design modifications, and prevent delivery of data centers with latent issues across the global fleet
Work independently in a high-pressure environment with all levels of leadership from field engineers to senior executives and exercise sound judgment in ambiguous situations where clear guidelines may not yet exist
