About The Position

Amazon is inventing at the frontier of computing—developing foundational AI
models, designing custom silicon, and pioneering quantum technologies that will
define the next era of computation. We're seeking a high-judgment communications
professional to join our team.

For over a decade, Amazon has designed custom chips that power cloud
infrastructure and AI workloads at massive scale. What began with the 2015
acquisition of Annapurna Labs has grown into a $10+ billion business. Today,
Graviton processors run applications for 90% of AWS's largest customers and
Trainium chips train frontier AI models including one of the world's largest AI
supercomputers. Amazon’s custom silicon has become foundational infrastructure
reshaping cloud economics—and we're building the quantum systems that will
define computing's next chapter.

As Senior PR Manager, you'll shape how customers, media, policymakers, and the
industry understand Amazon's leadership in advanced computing hardware. You'll
translate chip architecture breakthroughs, quantum research advances, and
large-scale deployments into clear, credible stories—from major launches to
customer wins to long-term research.

The ideal candidate will have experience building proactive PR programs in
deeply technical domains; navigating complex, multi-stakeholder environments;
and translating R&D into accessible narratives. You'll leverage earned, owned,
and social media to amplify our innovations while maintaining the technical
credibility essential in hardware and deep tech communications. Being flexible
in managing ambiguity as priorities shift—from product launches to research
breakthroughs to competitive positioning—will be key.
