Description

Are you passionate about defining the future of computing? Do you have the technical depth in HPC, quantum computing, and AI-driven architectures combined with the business acumen to translate that expertise into a compelling vision for customers and internal stakeholders?

Join the Advanced Computing team as a Business Development Specialist focused on Advanced Computing (AC) Architectures. This role builds on traditional HPC architectures and orchestrators to define and drive the next generation of computing, fusing High Performance Computing with Quantum Computing, AI, and other emerging technologies.

You will lead the global go-to-market strategy for AC Architectures, working directly with enterprise and public sector customers to understand their advanced computing needs, sell the vision, and help them chart a path from traditional HPC to converged computing approaches. Internally, you will partner with AWS service teams (EC2, Braket, PCS, Batch, SageMaker, and others), product management, engineering, marketing, professional services, partner teams, and sales leadership to influence roadmaps, ensure alignment, and scale execution. Your work will span from whiteboard sessions with Global 500 customers to strategy documents for AWS leadership on the competitive landscape in converged computing, to keynote presentations at industry conferences.

You are a leader for specialists, architects, partners, and account teams around the world, setting direction and standards for how AWS approaches advanced computing challenges. You bring the voice of the customer into our product development roadmap and help AWS and its customers navigate the transition from today's HPC paradigms to the converged computing architectures of tomorrow.
