Strategic Customer Engagements, Deal Team - Specialized
About the role
The Global Deal Strategy and Programs (GDSP) team at AWS drives cloud adoption and business growth through innovative pricing strategies. The organization comprises two specialized teams: Strategic Customer Engagements, which guide transformative deals with industry leaders, and Private Pricing Programs & Experiences, which scales and optimizes pricing solutions across our diverse customer base. Within GDSP, you will develop deep expertise in cloud economics, hone your strategic thinking, and directly impact AWS's market leadership while working with emerging technologies and global clients.
The Strategic Customer Engagements (SCE) team is a specialized global deal team that engages with commercial and public sector customers on deal strategy, structuring, and negotiations through contractual closure for transformational, strategic, large, complex, and/or highly competitive opportunities. SCE engages directly with customers and AWS leadership to drive cloud initiatives that will accelerate growth, increase efficiency, and unlock new business capabilities.
This is a unique opportunity to engage with AWS customers on strategic opportunities, increase the growth of AWS (Americas/EMEA/APJ), and to establish AWS as their key cloud technology provider. These opportunities range across industry verticals, such as Financial Services, Telecommunications, Media & Entertainment, Energy, Healthcare Life Sciences, Automotive and Manufacturing, and Public Sector, and customer size (from start-ups to enterprise customers). These engagements may also involve Pan-Amazon and AWS go-to-market opportunities involving close partnership between the SCE global deal team and other Amazon and AWS stakeholders.
