Role Nov 2024 – Sep 2026
Associate Account Executive, Enterprise Software & Technology @ Amazon Web Services (AWS)
Austin, TX
I worked in enterprise cloud sales and customer acquisition at AWS.
Scope
I worked across enterprise accounts in a quota-driven sales environment, often with account managers and field teams on accounts that already had AWS relationships. The focus was customer acquisition and pipeline development: account research, stakeholder discovery, outreach, meetings, event follow-up, and opportunity paths the account team can take forward.
Areas of work
- Account research, stakeholder and line-of-business discovery, and targeted outreach
- Booking and driving meetings with customers, partners, and field specialists
- Developing opportunity paths and pipeline with account managers, technical teams, and partners
- Launch support and translating technical subjects into clear business language
Background
Sales background
I moved from sales into developer community work at AWS. Sales taught me how people explain problems, make decisions, and adopt unfamiliar technology when the process around a tool does not match the promise.
