DESCRIPTION
At Amazon, data is critical to everything we do, from understanding product inventories across our global fulfillment centers to predicting what products to recommend to customers. Data ceaselessly informs our flywheel, helping us to understand customer needs, onboard new sellers and selection, and identify opportunities for cost savings. Business Data Technologies (BDT) provides trustworthy, intuitive, and cost-efficient solutions for Amazonians to secure, store, analyze, and transform this data at unparalleled scale. BDT owns, develops, and operates Andes, one of the largest data lakes in the world, storing 3+ exabytes of data, read/written to by 100k+ data pipelines, with >60k monthly active users. To do this, we need extraordinary individuals to build the next generation of data analytics, machine learning, and AI solutions for thousands of scientists, engineers, and analysts who rely upon us to get their jobs done.
The BDT-AI4ME organization works to bring AI-centric methodologies and automations to Amazon organizations needing to connect their business teams and objectives with their data teams and architectures. The BDT-AI4ME organization seeks to lower the cognitive load needed to connect business to data through best of class agents and AI-ready metadata to allow anyone to access data to gain insights.
As a Principal Technical Program Manager in the BDT-AI4ME organization, you understand ways that enterprises apply AI to solve business and technical problems. You understand the ways that Amazon’s business teams work with their data teams, and you seek to reduce friction and error-proneness of those interactions using AI. You drive lightweight mechanisms that bring visibility to leadership, share best practices, and provide better communication and collaboration across teams. This role works closely with Tech Directors, VPs and Principal Engineers to identify patterns, new trends, goals and areas for cross-org collaboration. This role does not support just one organization but rather focuses on best practices that can be applicable to multiple organizations across Amazon.
Key job responsibilities
You focus on the needs of business users as they navigate data from question to insight. You formulate goals and plans for transforming the ways Amazon extracts value from its data through iterative improvements involving AI enablement, process optimization, role guidelines, and org design.
As part of a broader team, you collaborate with other technical program managers to ensure that work in your space aligns with work and plans of other teams across BDT and other organizations. You establish mechanisms for inspection and awareness of progress across cross cutting initiatives.
Data drives your “flywheel”. You analyze data to glean insights that drive experimentation. You leverage data such as service telemetry, user feedback, and industry trends to surface opportunities for improvement. You take what’s proven and partner with Amazon organizations to apply and scale it. You define, implement, and monitor metrics that track your progress.
You partner with Amazon’s business orgs to test hypotheses and deploy AI-based solutions to reduce friction and risk of errors in the ways that businesses use data.
You give feedback on narratives, contribute to strategy (e.g., OP1 planning), set goals, discuss weekly business metrics, and more.
You partner with Amazon’s PXT organization to evolve and optimize roles guidelines and org design best practices to align with the way businesses are evolving their practices around getting insights from their data.
You partner with engineering, human resources, legal, documentation, solution architecture, privacy, finance, and more to optimize usage of the Andes data lake for AI-based methodologies.
As an owner, you hold yourself and partners accountable for the highest quality user outcomes.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship as an Engineering Project Manager
Translate your credentials before applying
Australian three-year engineering degrees satisfy the U.S. bachelor's degree requirement for E-3 visa specialty occupation, but your resume should explicitly state your qualification level and field. Recruiters screening for 'BS required' need to see the equivalency stated clearly, not assumed.
Target employers with active LCA filing history
Engineering project managers are best placed at firms that have filed Labor Condition Applications before. DOL's OFLC disclosure data shows which companies have certified LCAs for project management roles, giving you a shortlist of sponsors who already understand the E-3 process.
Search for E-3 sponsorship roles using Migrate Mate
Use Migrate Mate to find Engineering Project Manager jobs where employers have confirmed E-3 sponsorship. The platform filters roles by visa type, so you're not cold-pitching sponsorship to companies unfamiliar with the process.
Raise E-3 sponsorship after receiving a written offer
Introducing visa sponsorship before an employer has decided you're the right candidate often kills your chances. Once you have a written offer, frame the E-3 as low-risk: there's no lottery, no cap, and the LCA certifies within seven business days at DOL.
Verify your job description covers specialty occupation criteria
USCIS requires that the role normally requires a degree in a specific field, not just any bachelor's degree. Engineering project manager descriptions that emphasize technical scope, engineering judgment, and design oversight are stronger than those focused purely on coordination or scheduling.
Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service for the LCA and visa paperwork
Once your employer confirms sponsorship, use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to manage the LCA submission, DS-160, and consulate preparation. This prevents filing errors that can delay your start date or trigger unnecessary requests from the consulate.
E-3 Visa Engineering Project Manager: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find Engineering Project Manager jobs with E-3 visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is the most direct way to find Engineering Project Manager roles where employers have confirmed they'll sponsor the E-3 visa. Standard job searches don't filter by visa type, so you often waste time on applications where sponsorship isn't available. Migrate Mate surfaces roles matched to E-3 eligibility, so you start from a pool of confirmed opportunities.
How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.
Does an Engineering Project Manager role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?
Yes, provided the role requires a bachelor's degree or higher in engineering, construction management, or a directly related technical field. Roles that emphasize engineering judgment, technical oversight, and scope management qualify more clearly than those framed around general coordination. USCIS looks at whether the degree requirement is genuine and field-specific, not just a listed preference.
How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for Engineering Project Manager roles?
The E-3 is available exclusively to Australian citizens and has no lottery and no annual cap, so you can apply at any point after receiving a job offer. The H-1B visa has an 85,000-slot cap with a random lottery, meaning most applicants wait a year or more and may not be selected at all. For Australians, the E-3 is a direct path where the H-1B is largely a waiting game.
Can I change employers while on an E-3 as an Engineering Project Manager?
Yes, but your new employer must file a fresh LCA with DOL and you'll need a new E-3 visa stamp before re-entering the U.S. if you travel internationally. You can begin working for the new employer immediately after the LCA is certified and the employer has issued a new support letter, without waiting for a new visa stamp if you remain inside the U.S.
