- Maintain and grow migration and modernization skills
- Serve as the AWS advisor for customers' strategic transformation initiatives and cloud adoption
- Support Account Sales team in presentations of strategy and Cloud Adoption vision to the C-suite including CEOs, COO, CFO, CIO, and CTO
A day in the life
- Customer Meetings: Assisting Account managers in customer meetings with CIOs, CTOs, and VPs to understand their business challenges and map out a cloud adoption strategy
- Sales Collaboration: Partnering with AWS sales teams to identify customers who need migration help, then shaping the engagement approach together
- Strategy Development: Strategizing with customers on technology roadmaps and transformation plans for enterprise customers — not just the tech, but the organizational change that comes with it
- Solution Design: Pulling together multiple AWS services and partner solutions into a cohesive plan that solves real business problems, not just technical ones
- Driving Opportunities: Actively moving migration and modernization deals forward by demonstrating value and building executive confidence
Who you're working with
- Externally: C-suite and VP-level leaders at large enterprises
- Internally: AWS sales teams, solution architects, and the broader Migration & Modernization organization
