Role Description
The Partner GTM organization within AWS is seeking a Partner Programs Strategy Lead to architect, scale, and orchestrate the end-to-end partner journey for Data & AI across AWS. This role is central to designing the strategic frameworks, programs, and resources that enable partner success throughout their Data & AI journey with AWS.
