Job ID: | Amazon.com Services LLC

At Amazon, we strive to be Earth’s most customer-centric company. We work towards a single goal: to ensure the best experience for our customers. To do that, we empower our people to think like owners and solve problems right the first time. As a team, we are focused on continuously improving and setting new standards in global operations. You have to thrive in the type of environment that is constantly changing and growing.

The purpose of the Operations Trust Team is to manage privacy for the Operations (Ops) organization. Our focus is to ensure individuals are never surprised by what data we collect, process, and share and that we delight regulators with the quality, transparency, and accuracy of our privacy documentation. Everything we do is based on this focus. This leader acts as a privacy subject matter expert and works with business, legal, and technology stakeholders to ensure the accuracy, completeness, and transparency of privacy documentation.
