- Partner with internal cross-functional teams across Solutions Architecture, Business Development, Marketing, Partners, and others
- Identify ways for AWS to add value to your startups and help them grow beyond just providing great infrastructure services and support
- Work with Partners to extend reach and drive adoption.
- Develop long-term strategic relationships within your accounts
- Ensure customer satisfaction
- Expect moderate travel across Canada to meet in-person with customers, and to the U.S. for briefings and events
