Account Manager, Startup Team
Account Manager, Startups - Job DescriptionAmazon Web Services (AWS) offers a complete set of cloud services that enable all companies, from startups to enterprises, to run virtually everything in the cloud, including mobile applications, big data analytics, AI/ML platforms, and microservices/serverless infrastructures.
Startups, which are now primarily born-in-the-cloud, represent a critically important and growing subset of customers to AWS.
These companies have unique needs, technical considerations, sales cycles, and growth trajectories that distinguish them from traditional companies.

You will also work closely with business development teams who are driving strategic support, global co-programming, and portfolio engagement to help drive top-of-funnel customer acquisition and accelerate seller cycles in the field.
You need to possess passion about Startups, be a self-starter with a strong entrepreneurial spirit who is prepared to work in a fast-paced, often ambiguous environment, execute against ambitious goals, and consistently embrace the Amazon Culture.
