AWS Global Services includes experts from across AWS who help our customers design, build, operate, and secure their cloud environments. Customers innovate with AWS Professional Services, upskill with AWS Training and Certification, optimize with AWS Support and Managed Services, and meet objectives with AWS Security Assurance Services. Our expertise and emerging technologies include AWS Partners, AWS Sovereign Cloud, AWS International Product, and the Generative AI Innovation Center. Youu2019ll join a diverse team of technical experts in dozens of countries who help customers achieve more with the AWS cloud.

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.

Key job responsibilities
