DESCRIPTION
Imagine if you could help shape the future of cloud architecture, and make it easier and better for customers looking to build in the cloud. AWS Cloud Optimization products and services help our customers develop technical expertise with AWS and learn how to architect their cloud applications for security, reliability, performance, cost optimization, sustainability, and operational excellence. We also help customers manage the health of their environments and implement knowledge management best practices. Through educational guidance content, thorough architecture reviews, supportive tooling, and a network of partners, we help customers make the most of their cloud usage.
This exciting role will lead the marketing team for Cloud Optimization. It's a small, but mighty team comprised of product marketing, field marketing, and partner marketing specialists. You would set the strategy, coach and manage the team, but also have an opportunity to contribute hands-on to some of the more interesting and complex challenges. In this sense, the role is a player + coach.
Concretely, we support the AWS Well-Architected framework, the Cloud Adoption framework, AWS Health, Trusted Advisor, and AWS re:Post. These offerings exist at the beautiful intersection of earning customer trust by helping promote best practices and reduce risks, and revenue generation as customers deepen their engagement with AWS.
