Description
Sales, Marketing and Global Services (SMGS)
AWS Sales, Marketing, and Global Services (SMGS) is responsible for driving revenue, adoption, and growth from the largest and fastest growing small- and mid-market accounts to enterprise-level customers including public sector. The AWS Global Support team interacts with leading companies and believes that world-class support is critical to customer success. AWS Support also partners with a global list of customers that are building mission-critical applications on top of AWS services.
AWS is one of Amazon's fastest growing businesses, servicing customers in more than 190 countries, reshaping the way global enterprises consume information technology and powering the developers who are building the next generation of global industry leaders. AWS customers include some of the most innovative Startups like Netflix, Pinterest, Spotify, Airbnb, and Instagram as well as some of the largest global enterprises like Shell International, Unilever, Hitachi, Sharp, Bristol-Myers Squibb, and Samsung. We help global and local enterprises to use cloud to remediate their technical debt and build new innovative businesses.
AWS Enterprise Support provides our customers with one-on-one, fast-response support channel that is staffed 24x7x365 with experienced and technical support engineers; Enterprise support provides a designated technical account manager to the customer and provides entitlements such as architecture review, operations support to design, build, and operate cloud environments leveraging AWS best practices; and a designated Support Concierge for administrative and billing inquiries.
Enterprise customers rely on Support when running their business critical workloads on the AWS platform, and our technical account managers and cloud support engineers are the primary daily touch-point for those customers. Customers include very large Enterprises, Public Sector companies, as well as fast growing businesses and Internet companies. Unlike most support organizations, AWS Support is a self-standing business with revenue and P&L responsibility and one of the fastest growing businesses within AWS.

Additionally, you will lead the expansion of Incident Detection and Response (IDR) and Countdown Premium (CDP) for customers with non-media streaming workloads, helping them strengthen their incident management, proactive monitoring, and operational resilience.You will engage customers to understand their support requirements, identify obstacles to adoption, and refine AWS's Premium Support value proposition. Through commercial innovation and controlled experiments, you will optimize support offerings, quantify their impact on AWS platform adoption, and develop initiatives to accelerate customer success. Additionally, you will work closely with sales teams, partners, and internal stakeholders to enable field teams, develop customer-facing collateral, and pilot new support offerings through AWS's partner ecosystem.
Key job responsibilities
- Customer & Market Engagement:
- Engage customers, partners, and field teams to deeply understand and measure customer value and pain points in adopting Enterprise Support Services (Enterprise Support, Enterprise On-Ramp, MSS, IDR, CDP, and other new offerings).
- Identify adoption challenges for MSS in media streaming environments and IDR/CDP for non-media streaming workloads, addressing customer needs with tailored solutions.
- Solution Adoption & Expansion:
- Lead the enablement, execution, and GTM strategy for MSS adoption among media streaming customers, ensuring optimized support, proactive monitoring, and operational guidance.
- Drive IDR and CDP adoption for non-media streaming customers, enhancing incident detection, response readiness, and premium support experiences.
- Data-Driven Strategy & ROI Analysis:
- Analyze drivers of Enterprise Support Services adoption, identifying levers for growth and improvement.
- Quantify the impact of MSS, IDR, and CDP adoption on AWS platform usage, customer retention, and cloud migration acceleration.
- Estimate the ROI of Support investments and design initiatives to maximize business outcomes.
- Commercial Innovation & Experimentation:
- Design and execute controlled experiments to refine support offerings, enhance differentiation, and drive commercial innovation.
- Develop new pricing strategies, ensuring customers receive cost-effective, value-driven support solutions.
- Field & Partner Enablement:
- Develop and refine sales collateral, reference cases, and value proofs for MSS, IDR, and CDP to drive customer engagement.
