This position is part of the AWS Specialist and Partner Organization (ASP). Specialists own the end-to-end go-to-market strategy for their respective technology domains, providing the business and technical expertise to help our customers succeed. Partner teams own the strategy, recruiting, development, and growth of our key technology and consulting partners. Together they provide our customers with the expertise and scale needed to build innovative solutions for their most complex challenges.Key job responsibilitiesDesign and run structured feedback programs — including beta programs, pilot launches, and advisory councils — with ISVs, channel partners, consulting partners, and buyers to validate early-stage Marketplace feature concepts.Represent seller and buyer voice in product reviews and engineering discussions, synthesizing findings into clear recommendations for product and engineering leadership.Build scalable mechanisms to continuously collect and route partner and customer feedback to the right product and engineering teams.Own go-to-market strategy and execution for Marketplace feature launches, including enablement materials, partner communications, and field readiness programs across software, services, data, and AI agent solutions.Track post‑launch adoption metrics and develop remediation plans where adoption falls short; close the loop with product and engineering teams with structured findings.Leverage AI productivity tools to scale partner outreach, synthesize feedback signals, and accelerate the development of launch content and enablement materials.Represent AWS Marketplace at partner conferences, industry events, and community forums as a credible advocate for Marketplace capabilities across the full range of software, data, services, and AI agent offerings.Develop and deliver presentations, demos, and thought leadership content for audiences ranging from technical practitioners to C‑suite executives.Build a network of engaged advocates and early adopters who can support beta programs and provide ongoing product feedback.Build and manage senior-level relationships with ISVs, channel partners, consulting partners, and key buyers to drive feature adoption and surface new product opportunities.Collaborate with field sales, partner management, and alliance teams to co‑develop go‑to‑market motions and accelerate Marketplace adoption within key accounts and segments.Identify and pursue business development opportunities that emerge from product launches, market trends, or gaps in the current Marketplace seller and buyer experience.A day in the lifeNo two days look the same. You might spend your morning in a product review, presenting beta feedback from software vendors and consulting partners and recommending roadmap adjustments. By midday, you are briefing a partner executive on a feature launching next quarter — a new transaction model, an AI agent listing capability, or a channel program update. In the afternoon, you are on stage at a partner conference representing Marketplace to hundreds of vendors and service providers. You close the day tracking adoption signals and routing friction patterns back to the product team. This role rewards curiosity and comfort with ambiguity in equal measure.About the TeamAWS Marketplace is a curated digital catalog where companies find, buy, deploy, and manage third‑party software, services, data, and AI agent solutions to run their businesses — serving everyone from fast‑growing startups to the world's largest enterprises.

About the Company

A

Amazon

At Amazon, we don’t wait for the next big idea to present itself. We envision the shape of impossible things and then we boldly make them reality. So far, this mindset has helped us achieve some incredible things. Let’s build new systems, challenge the status quo, and design the world we want to live in. We believe the work you do here will be the best work of your life.

Wherever you are in your career exploration, Amazon likely has an opportunity for you. Our research scientists and engineers shape the future of natural language understanding with Alexa. Fulfillment center associates around the globe send customer orders from our warehouses to doorsteps. Product managers set feature requirements, strategy, and marketing messages for brand new customer experiences. And as we grow, we’ll add jobs that haven’t been invented yet.

It’s Always Day 1
At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

Our Leadership Principles
Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
