About the team
Within ASP, this position is a part of the Go-To-Market (GTM) Specialist team, where you will lead the GTM strategy for AWS Enterprise Applications, Migration & Modernization (EAMM), helping our Account Teams win large-scale complex migrations and directly support our largest and most strategic customer relationships. We create sales plays, build pipeline, leverage partners, and build new initiatives that drive results for our customers. We also provide critical feedback from customers to inform our product roadmap, and work closely with our partner network to build an ecosystem supporting our customers’ goals. In emerging areas, we play a critical role as the “first in” teams to build markets for new services, domains, or solutions. When a customer needs to innovate and requires a new way to leverage AWS, they count on us to innovate with them to build and deliver what they need. When a customer is considering migrating at scale they look to us for guidance on best practices across application types and patterns for migration and modernization.
