Would you like to be part of a team focused on helping customers realize new value by migrating their enterprise infrastructure and applications to AWS? AWS is seeking a Customer Solutions Manager (CSM) to help grow customer adoption of our End User Computing (EUC) on AWS services and solutions. The CSM role owns our customers’ journey throughout the adoption cycle and move into a scaled production environment, and ensures we are continuing to provide value as we increase retention and help the customer’s adoption of End User Computing services across personas and use cases.

As an AWS CSM you will serve as the customer’s cloud journey coach and voice of customer within AWS, evangelizing customer needs to AWS leadership, account teams, service and engineering teams. You leverage your communication, program management, technical, operations, and transformation acumen to understand and work backward from your customer's strategic goals, translating them into an executable plan, and delivering successful customer outcomes on AWS.
CSMs ensure customer leaders have sufficient knowledge of AWS and establish an education strategy to up-skill technical and non-technical roles across the customer’s organization. CSMs are customer advocates, driving resolution of blockers to migrations and new solutions on AWS by helping customers adopt services at scale and creating paths to help accelerate value realization. CSMs are encouraged to think big, invent and take ownership on customer challenges.
