AWS Applied AI Solutions (AAIS) is building toward a future where every business innovates with Amazon AI teammates. To get there, we build AI solutions that improve human capabilities and transform entire business functions. We create end-to-end products that surprise and delight out-of-the-box, making complex things easy and hard things possible, with no cloud experience required. We start with customers who embrace the future and build bridges to meet the rest where they are. We pursue ambitious opportunities with conviction, and we are looking for builders who share that mindset.
AWS helps our customers 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. You'll join a diverse team of technical experts in dozens of countries who help customers achieve more with the AWS cloud.
As a Technical Account Manager (TAM) at Amazon Web Services you will be a valued member of the Enterprise Support team leading the success of enterprise support customers in building applications and services on the AWS platform. You work backwards from your customer to define a support strategy, deliver expert advice on AWS services in support of questions, project and launch planning, and ongoing operational issues. TAMs are engaged at the account level providing recommendations and proactive advice through all phases of the cloud adoption life cycle.
You have demonstrable experience in providing operational best practice guidance in two of the following technical domains: Compute, Storage, Networking, Databases, DevOps, Big Data and Analytics, Security, and Applications Development. You have internal enterprise or external customer-facing experience with the ability to clearly articulate and present to small and large audiences. Experience in similar roles such as a Senior Technical Consultant, Solutions Architect, IT Manager/Engineer, or another similar technical role is highly preferred.

Amazon runs the largest online store in the United States and rents cloud computing to businesses and governments through Amazon Web Services. AWS pioneered renting computing power over the internet, and Amazon built its own delivery network to get orders to customers quickly. Shoppers buy from Amazon and from independent sellers on its store, and Prime members pay a subscription for fast free shipping, streaming video and music, and other perks. AWS rents out computing power, storage, databases, and AI tools so companies can run software without owning servers, and Amazon also makes Kindle e-readers and Echo speakers with the Alexa assistant. Jeff Bezos founded Amazon in 1994, and it is based in Seattle, Washington.
