Job description

DESCRIPTION

The Startup Business Development team works directly with the top startups in the world, to drive adoption, growth, and success on Amazon Web Services. The team's comprised of a rare group – serial entrepreneurs, investors, and startup leaders – working within Amazon to drive AWS strategy, while supporting the next generation of startup entrepreneurs. As a member of the team, you will be working closely with teammates to support our leading startup partners.

Your team members will include former founders of top tech startups – people who have started publicly traded companies, sold companies to Google and Amazon, raised over $100M venture financing, and they are interested in providing colleagues with unique mentorship and network access. As you perform, you will take on more and more responsibility at a company that is growing rapidly, where a premium is placed on developing exceptional talent.
