WW Security GTM Specialist, WW Security, Identity, Governance GTM

At Amazon Web Services (AWS), everything starts with security. We think big, innovate on behalf of our customers, and tackle problems at global scale. As cloud computing continues to disrupt industries everywhere, we are seeking a seasoned go-to-market leader to own worldwide executive GTM strategy across our Security, Identity, and Governance (SIG) portfolio.

Are you passionate about cybersecurity and building go-to-market strategy at global scale? Join the AWS Worldwide Specialist Organization for Security, Identity & Governance to define and drive how AWS takes its SIG portfolio to market worldwide to shape the strategy, mechanisms, and field-facing programs that accelerate secure cloud adoption, influence product direction, and help AWS customers be more secure.

You will operate with significant autonomy in an ambiguous, high-visibility space to set GTM priorities, design scalable programs and mechanisms, and enable the global field and sales teams who carry the SIG portfolio to customers. You will translate customer and field signal into a coherent worldwide strategy, channel feedback to AWS leadership and product teams, and track measurable business outcomes across the portfolio.

1. Own worldwide GTM executive strategy for the SIG portfolio: define priorities, create narratives that resonate, and build the mechanisms, stages, success metrics, and playbooks to scale worldwide.

3. Coach and enable the field on executive engagement, provide advisory services to sales and field teams on GTM execution, account strategy, and program adoption, raising the organization's overall capability at the exec level across the SIG portfolio.
4. Own the operating cadence and reporting (inspection mechanisms, success metrics, and ROI reporting) that measure GTM effectiveness and program health.
5. Partner with global teams to pilot, launch, and scale executive GTM programs from planning through execution, leading multiple simultaneous initiatives that require both strategic vision and high-speed tactical execution. Travel up to 40% as needed

A day in the life
Your morning starts with a pipeline review alongside a strategic partner's alliance lead, examining joint opportunities and identifying where AWS resources can accelerate deals. You then coordinate with field sales on an enterprise transformation opportunity. Before lunch, you join a working session with partner architects to validate a new service integration against eligibility requirements. In the afternoon, you review results from a pilot GTM initiative, preparing a recommendation on whether to scale it broadly.
