As a member of the UC organization, you’ll support the development and management of Compute, Database, Storage, Internet of Things (Iot), Platform, and Productivity Apps services in AWS, including support for customers who require specialized security solutions for their cloud services.
Amazon Web Services is innovating new ways of building massively scalable distributed systems and delivering the next generation of cloud services that support commercial and public sector customers around the world. We hold high standards for our computer systems and the services we deliver to our customers: our systems are highly secure, highly reliable, highly available, all while functioning at massive scale. Our employees are smart, passionate about the cloud, driven to serve customers, and fun to work with.
Our regions are the primary means by which we deliver AWS services around the world and we are seeking a Technical Business Developer to participate in and influence new business capture strategy and proposals for new regions. We need a motivated, flexible Technical Business Developer to help us meet these needs.
Technical Business Developers will scale their perspective from opportunities and implementation to strategies for large customers or geographic regions. We value the ability to proactively and productively engage in discussions with stakeholders, across AWS, with differing perspectives, opinions, and priorities while driving to solutions that best serve our customers.
