Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the leading cloud provider, offering virtualized infrastructure, storage, networking, GenAi, messaging, analytics, and other web computing services to customers all over the world. AWS operates a globally distributed environment at massive levels of scale, offering over 200 fully featured services to millions of active customers around the world—including the fastest-growing startups, largest enterprises, and leading government agencies—to power their infrastructure.

Startups, which are now primarily born-in-the-cloud, represent a critically important and growing subset of customers to AWS. Startups have unique needs, priorities, and growth trajectories that distinguish them from traditional businesses and require different engagement strategies and sales motions from sellers to effectively acquire, grow, and retain them long-term on the AWS platform. This is your chance to join our high-impact Global Sales Operations team as the Sales Operations Lead for Startups in North America.

Key job responsibilities
The NAMER Startups Sales Operations team is a critical engine powering the growth of the Startups segment. The Sales Operations Lead will play a pivotal role in delivering on NAMER Startups goals and priorities by closely collaborating with the Sales & Business Development teams. In this role, you will design and optimize the operational frameworks, tools, and playbooks to efficiently identify, qualify, and convert Greenfield startup prospects into active AWS customers. You will establish standardized processes, metrics, and data-driven insights to continuously improve the efficiency and effectiveness of our operations with the Customer in mind and for scalability. In addition, you will drive the execution and achievement of key team customer acquisition and spend goals. Serving as a strategic partner to sales leadership, you will translate NAMER Startups growth objectives into operational plans for your assigned work-stream, providing regular, data-driven updates on progress to inform decision-making. Ultimately, you will remove roadblocks and drive solutions that empower the sales force to effectively acquire, grow, and retain the best startups on AWS, supporting the mission to make AWS the Cloud Service Provider of choice for the next generation of high-growth startups.

About the team
Our North America Startups Sales Operations team acts as a trusted advisor, providing "Chief Operating Officer (COO)"-level support and thought leadership to sales leaders. This translates to high-quality decision-making built on a foundation of data-driven insights. We go beyond the immediate, offering an "outside-in" perspective on the long-term health of the business. We identify and own critical, long-term operational initiatives – the "big rocks" that may not yield immediate results but are essential for long-term viability. Ultimately, we empower ambitious startups to change the world and turn bold ideas into reality.
