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 a Partner Development Manager
Frame your Australian credentials for U.S. hiring
A three-year Australian bachelor's degree is generally accepted as equivalent to a U.S. four-year degree for E-3 visa specialty occupation purposes. Prepare a one-page credential summary that maps your degree field to the Partner Development Manager role requirements before you apply.
Target employers with existing LCA filing history
Search DOL's Foreign Labor Application Gateway for companies that have previously filed Labor Condition Applications for partnership, alliances, or business development roles. Prior LCA activity signals a company already understands the E-3 process and won't stall at sponsorship.
Address sponsorship directly in your cover letter
State upfront that you're an Australian citizen eligible for the E-3 visa, which requires no lottery and minimal employer cost. Recruiters unfamiliar with E-3 often assume all foreign nationals require H-1B visa sponsorship, so correcting that assumption early prevents automatic screening.
Use Migrate Mate to find and file efficiently
Search for Partner Development Manager roles with confirmed E-3 sponsorship on Migrate Mate, then use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to handle your LCA and visa paperwork once you have an offer. Having a clear filing path ready reassures employers who are new to the process.
Negotiate LCA wage level before your offer is finalised
Your employer's LCA must certify a prevailing wage at the appropriate DOL wage level for your role and location. If the offered salary falls below the Level II or III prevailing wage for Partner Development Manager in that metro area, the LCA will not certify, so align compensation before signing.
Prepare for consulate questions about role scope
Consular officers sometimes probe whether Partner Development Manager roles genuinely require a degree rather than general business experience. Bring your offer letter, job description, and degree transcripts to your interview. A role tied to a specific field like SaaS partnerships or enterprise channel development is easier to defend than a broad title.
E-3 Visa Partner Development Manager: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find Partner Development Manager jobs with E-3 visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for Australian professionals searching for U.S. roles that include E-3 visa sponsorship. Unlike general job boards, it surfaces positions where employers are already open to the E-3 process, saving you from cold-pitching companies that have never sponsored an Australian national before.
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 a Partner Development Manager role qualify as an E-3 specialty occupation?
Yes, provided the employer's job description requires at least a bachelor's degree in a specific field such as business, marketing, communications, or a related discipline. The role must be tied to theoretical and practical knowledge from that field. Generic business development roles where any degree suffices can face scrutiny, so the job description wording matters significantly.
How does the E-3 visa compare to the H-1B for Partner Development Manager roles?
The E-3 is available only to Australian citizens, but it has two major advantages over the H-1B for this role: no annual lottery and no cap on available visas. H-1B registration is a randomised selection with roughly a 25 percent chance of selection in recent years. With the E-3, you can apply any time of year and start work as soon as your visa is approved, making it far more predictable for both you and your employer.
Can I change employers while on an E-3 as a Partner Development Manager?
Yes, but you cannot port your existing E-3 to a new employer the way an H-1B holder can under AC21 portability rules. Your new employer must file a fresh LCA with the DOL and you'll need a new E-3 visa stamp, typically obtained at an Australian consulate. You cannot begin work for the new employer until the new LCA is certified and your visa is issued.
