About the team
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform. We pioneered cloud computing and never stopped innovating. Our Strategic Accounts team is responsible for the growth and happiness of some of AWS’ largest, most complex customers, and the multi-dimensional relationships our company has with them.
AWS is continuously raising our performance bar, and we’re dedicated to supporting new team members as we strive to become Earth’s Best Employer. Each of us is surrounded by a mix of experiences and tenures, and colleagues at all levels who are committed to knowledge-share and mentorship. The Strategic Account Representative team strives to provide talent development in role, and in optional, supplemental offerings, that help each of us grow into a better-rounded professional, and enable our success in increasingly complex situations, roles, and organizations.
At AWS, it’s in our nature to learn and be curious. Our employee-led affinity groups foster a culture of inclusion that empower us to be proud of our differences. Ongoing events and learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences, inspire us to continually embrace our uniqueness.
AWS values work-life harmony. Achieving success at work should never come at the expense of sacrifices at home, which is why flexible work hours and arrangements are part of our culture. When we feel supported in the workplace and at home, there’s nothing we can’t achieve in the cloud.
