DESCRIPTION

Do you want to help us increase awareness and adoption of cloud in the Argentinean or Colombian FSI market? Do you have the business savvy, industry experience and technical background necessary to help establish Amazon Web Services (AWS) as a key technology platform provider? Can you work equally well with executives and technologists, leading high-visibility, high-impact projects that are technically broad and deep? Are you excited about introducing lean transformation models to traditional enterprise organizations?

At AWS, we're looking for an experienced Industry Advisor who can engage with customers to understand their business drivers, assess application portfolios and develop blueprints for enterprise operating models, ultimately driving adoption of the AWS platform in the FSI market.

An Industry Advisor works with Sales and Solutions Architecture closely. Industry Advisors would work out industry transformation blueprint, first-of-a-kind industry solutions, key accounts architectural initiatives and would lead cross team AWS resources for execution. You will enable the AWS sales teams selling to industry accounts to drive their day-to-day interactions with key prospects. You will also work closely with partner teams to develop and promote cloud patterns and solutions for the vertical.

The ideal candidate should have demonstrated experience engaging senior-level executives in previous roles, and a credible understanding of the overall FSI landscape. You will have a demonstrated ability to think strategically about business, product, regulation and compliance, and technical challenges, with the skill-set to drive tactical execution of sales and business development goals.

At Amazon Web Services (AWS) we are inventing the future of cloud computing with a team of builders who try new things and dream big dreams. Our web services provide a platform for IT infrastructure in-the-cloud that is used by hundreds of thousands of developers and businesses around the world. Ten years ago, we couldn't have imagined how far we would come. Now we're inventing for the next ten years and beyond. But it is still Day 1 for us, and we are looking for curious people to be part of our diverse teams of thinkers, testers, and doers.
