Vice President Aws Trainer Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is seeking a Vice President to lead our Messaging and Streaming Services organization. This is a critical senior leadership role spanning the full breadth of AWS's real-time data movement portfolio-from open-source streaming technologies to AWS-native messaging and delivery solutions.
As VP, you will be responsible for product strategy, engineering execution, service operations, and overall business results across the entire messaging and streaming portfolio. You will own the P&L, product roadmaps, engineering development, and operational excellence for all services in scope.
This role requires a leader who can:
• Think strategically and execute relentlessly - Innovate on behalf of customers while remaining deeply connected to engineering execution. Apply relentlessly high standards to lead the development of purpose-built, large-scale systems.
• Lead at scale - Direct geographically distributed teams (Seattle, Vancouver BC, Palo Alto CA, Cambridge UK, and beyond) to build and operate next-generation high-performance streaming and messaging systems that deliver real-time ingestion, storage, processing, and delivery for large-scale applications.
• Drive the open-source and proprietary balance - Your portfolio spans open-source streaming technologies (Apache Kafka, Apache Flink, Apache ActiveMQ, RabbitMQ) and AWS-native solutions (Kinesis, SNS, SQS, Data Firehose), positioning you to own the complete data movement lifecycle.
• Manage a diverse business mix - Given the combination of heavily used, highly operational services (e.g., Kinesis Data Streams, SQS, SNS) and emerging/growing businesses (e.g., Amazon MQ, Managed Flink), this role demands strong technical depth, strong operational leadership, and the ability to drive new adoption simultaneously.
• Collaborate across AWS - Since these services are used in conjunction with many other systems, you will help customers build applications that leverage multiple AWS offerings. You will work closely with senior AWS leaders and the leaders of other AWS services, particularly within AWS Data and Analytics, AWS Serverless, and AWS Storage.
• Champion open source - Be enthusiastic about data streaming, passionate about contributing to open-source communities, and driven to solve real customer business needs at AWS scale.
The team you lead will deliver innovation that simplifies and improves the way customers build large-scale real-time and event-driven applications.
This role is also designed to develop and assess readiness for future leadership of the largest, most technically complex services at AWS (e.g., DynamoDB, Lambda, EBS, S3).
Key job responsibilities
You will own the complete messaging and streaming lifecycle across the following services:
Streaming Services:
• Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (MSK)
• Amazon Managed Service for Apache Flink
• Amazon Kinesis Data Streams
• Amazon Data Firehose
Messaging Services:
• Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS)
• Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS)
• Amazon MQ (managed Apache ActiveMQ and RabbitMQ)
Together, these services enable customers to build and run applications that ingest, process, deliver, and communicate streaming and event-driven data at scale. The combined portfolio represents strong year-over-year growth, positioning this as one of the highest-impact technical leadership roles in AWS.
