Want to make an impact on how millions of customers pay on Amazon every day? Are you a hands-on technical leader who can make a huge impact on a dynamic, fast-moving business?

- Have a strong track record of shaping business strategy for technical products or services. (A strong understanding of the Payments industry is desirable)
- Understand how to design scalable software
- Be conversant with internet technologies
- Communicate effectively with both business and technical partners
- Have an entrepreneurial spirit
