Krista Wharton

AI/ML Senior Product Manager
Amazon

Krista Wharton is an AI/ML Senior Product Manager at Amazon, where she leads the invention of agentic AI-powered learning experiences for Amazon Logistics Delivery Training & Programs — shaping how 400,000+ Delivery Associates are trained every year. Her team builds from scratch: adaptive AI tutors, immersive VR simulations, driving simulators, and the agentic AI systems that power it all behind the scenes.

What sets Krista apart is her belief that the people closest to the work are the most valuable innovators in the room. She has pioneered approaches to upskilling non-technical field teams to design and ship production-ready AI — proving that you don't need a CS degree to build technology that changes how people learn at scale.

As a dynamic storyteller, Krista is known for taking complex, cutting-edge technology and making it impossible to ignore.
