DESCRIPTION
Would you like to be part of a team focused on accelerating adoption of Amazon's End User Computing (EUC) suite including Amazon WorkSpaces, AppStream, and WorkDocs? Do you have the business savvy, technical background, and sales skills necessary to help position Amazon as the cloud provider of choice for our Cloud Desktop and Cloud Application infrastructure? Amazon Web Services is looking for Specialized Sellers to help establish AWS End User Computing as the market leader in end user computing. We built AWS EUC services to give customers the agility to respond to the changing needs of their workforce. Customers can scale up or scale down on-demand, providing users with the resources they need, all without deploying and operating infrastructure.
You will be responsible for working with Enterprise customers and their existing AWS account representatives to qualify and pursue sales opportunities for cloud based end user computing workloads. You will engage with our demand generation, segment sales, solutions architects, partner and marketing organizations to drive opportunities to closure. Your commitments will include quota accountability, driving platform adoption within Enterprise accounts, running programs and ensuring success at scale.
The ideal candidate will have both a sales and technical background that enables them to drive an engagement at the Executive level as well as with software developers and IT architects. The candidate should be a self-starter who is prepared to develop and execute against a territory coverage plan and consistently deliver on quarterly revenue targets. Teamwork, Account strategies, cross selling, solution selling, negotiation and closing are just a few of the critical skills required for success.
