As an Account Executive on the Healthcare & Life Sciences (HCLS) Scale team within Amazon Web Services (AWS), you will own a portfolio of 30-50 existing HCLS customers and drive growth through deeper services adoption, workload expansion, and new use-case development. Your customers span the healthcare ecosystem, including pharmaceutical and biotech companies, health technology organizations, healthcare providers, and payor/health plan organizations. Each is at a different stage of their cloud journey, and your job is to meet them where they are and accelerate what comes next. This is not a transactional sales role, nor is it a single-threaded enterprise engagement. You will operate as a strategic growth driver across a broad set of accounts, using data, signals, and customer insights to prioritize where to invest your time. You will identify expansion opportunities, build account-level growth strategies, and orchestrate internal resources to deliver outcomes that matter to your customers. Whether it is helping a pharma company modernize drug discovery pipelines, enabling a payor to leverage AI for claims automation, supporting a health tech company scaling on AWS, or working with a provider on clinical data interoperability, you will connect the dots between customer priorities and AWS capabilities. Healthcare and life sciences organizations are navigating significant transformation. Pharmaceutical companies are rethinking R&D and commercial operations through AI. Payors are under pressure to reduce administrative costs and improve member experience. Providers face margin compression and workforce challenges. Health technology companies are scaling platforms that serve all of these stakeholders. AWS is uniquely positioned with purpose-built services like Amazon Bedrock, Amazon HealthLake, and Amazon Connect to help these organizations modernize and innovate. You will be the catalyst for that transformation across your portfolio.
