This role is for a Senior Leader of Strategy & Planning (also referred to as 'Chief of Staff'), and will report directly the VP of Fire TV, Advertising, and Appstore.

This role serves as strategic partner to the VP and their executive leadership team, with the primary goal of helping shape the strategy of the organization, and enabling the organization to scale behind its long-term vision. The role blends strategic, programmatic, and operational responsibilities, requiring switching between macro-level strategic thinking and micro-level project management. The role is inherently cross-functional, with significant exposure to senior leaders across the Devices organization. Success in this role means acting as the ‘glue’ that brings together different parts of business and organization.

• Drive strategic planning across the organization and ensure critical debates are surfaced and resolved. Shepherd the strategic planning process, from 3YP to OP1 to OP2 to Monthly and Quarterly Reviews.
• Improve organizational efficiency and leverage. Identify organizational pain points and opportunities, dive deep as required to overhaul existing mechanisms and approaches, and work with leaders to implement self-sustaining solutions with permanent owners.
