Cloud Sales Jobs (NOW HIRING)

ADVANCE YOUR CAREER. ADVANCE THE WORLD.

At AMD, we believe technology can change lives for the better. It can heal us, entertain us, and make us more connected, productive, and understanding of the world around us. And we’re looking for talent who feel the same: people who want to leave the planet better than they found it, those who don’t shy away from humanity’s challenges but are determined to help solve them.

AMD is powering the next generation of supercomputing, high-performance computing, cloud, and AI. Whether you’re designing next-gen processors, enabling AI breakthroughs, or creating go-to-market plans, every role at AMD contributes to something bigger — technology that moves the world forward.

THE ROLE:

AMD is seeking a highly experienced and customer-focused Senior Cloud Sales Specialist to accelerate cloud revenue growth across North America by driving customer adoption of AMD-powered cloud and AI solutions across leading Cloud Service Providers (CSPs).

This is a senior, quota-carrying sales overlay role that works alongside AMD’s enterprise sales teams to identify, develop, and close strategic cloud opportunities. You will engage directly with customers to understand their cloud, infrastructure, application, and AI strategies; identify where AMD technology can deliver differentiated value; and help account teams translate those opportunities into pipeline, workload adoption, and revenue.

Working across the North America Cloud Sales organization, you will collaborate with AMD Account Executives, Cloud Account teams, Solution Architects, Business Units, and field organizations across AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and the broader cloud ecosystem. You will help connect customer needs to the right AMD-powered solutions and orchestrate the technical, partner, and sales resources needed to move complex opportunities from discovery through evaluation and close.
