Description

Amazon was recently rated the #1 most reputable company in the US, #1 for innovation, and is frequently ranked at the top in Customer Service. Amazon’s technology business has a history and tradition of leading the world in Web-related technologies and services.

As a member of the AWS Support team, you will be at the forefront of Cloud technologies and the full breadth of AWS services. You will be surrounded by people who are smart, passionate about cloud computing, and believe that world class support is critical to customer success.

AWS Support provides global technical support to a wide range of external customers as they build mission-critical applications on top of AWS services such as Amazon S3 and Amazon EC2. The team is a self-standing P&L with our ability to drive both Amazon Free Cash Flow and world class customer experience. We have a team of talented engineers located in multiple locations around the world, and are growing rapidly.

As a Training PM, you will be responsible for implementing and administering high quality training initiatives in technical and non-technical learning programs for AWS Support. This role focuses on training coordination, running programs, monitoring impact and success metrics, and assisting with some curriculum development, but does not typically involve delivery of training. You will play a significant role in the development of a successful and effective global support team.

• Support and drive use of our internal Knowledge Base (i.e., access control, engage SMEs)
