Key job responsibilities

This role requires ambition, thinking big, self-motivation, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative, and startup-like environment. In this role you will:

- Manage multiple high-profile programs and projects across multiple supporting teams to deliver outcomes under commitments to senior AWS leaders and senior customer leaders

- Analyze large data sets to identify complex patterns and relationships resulting in practical solutions to real business problems

As a member of our team you will join a dedicated group of builders who provide troubleshooting and operations support, and innovate to automate operational tasks.
