• Business Growth: Partner with sales, alliances, and AWS field teams to drive pipeline, co‑sell initiatives, and joint customer success stories.
• Talent & Culture: Attract, mentor, and retain top technical and consulting talent, fostering a culture of innovation, continuous learning, and delivery excellence.
