Technical Program Manager III, AWS Events Livestream Technology

Description

Every year, millions of viewers around the world tune in to re:Invent and other flagship AWS events through livestream and virtual event platforms. We are looking for a Technical Program Manager to own the end-to-end technical delivery of these livestream experiences, from video platform integrations and identity services like AWS Builder ID to the engagement data that gives marketers verified insight into virtual audiences. You will coordinate multiple workstreams across engineering, product, security, and the Events organization to define requirements early, build workback plans, and ensure security and compliance reviews are complete well ahead of fixed launch dates. You will also help shape the livestream roadmap and the technical direction of the platforms that support it. This role requires strong technical judgment in video streaming, identity integrations, and vendor platforms, combined with the program management expertise to balance immediate launch needs with long-term architectural decisions.

Key job responsibilities

• Own the lifecycle of livestream and virtual event technology programs, setting objectives, defining success criteria, and driving engineering, vendor, and business teams to deliver on schedule.

• Partner with the Events organization, content teams, product, and security stakeholders to gather requirements, prioritize work, and make informed trade-offs between scope, timeline, and quality.

• Design and manage workback plans for events with fixed launch dates, proactively identifying risks and resolving cross-team dependencies before they become blockers.

• Use engagement data and program metrics to track progress, communicate status to Directors and VPs through clear narratives, and keep programs aligned with organizational goals.

• Evaluate vendor platforms, identity integrations, and system architectures for scalability and reliability, applying technical depth to guide both near-term delivery and long-term platform direction.

About the team

We work closely with engineering, product, security, and the Events organization to deliver reliable, engaging online experiences to a global audience.
