Key job responsibilities
We are part of the AWS Training & Certification (T&C) organization. T&C’s
mission is to educate learners on AWS services and best practices. T&C Commerce
and Content team provides centralized services and functional capabilities for
T&C. T&C offers learning platforms such as SkillBuilder
[https://skillbuilder.aws/]. Our tools and services enable customers to offer,
manage, and sell training to individuals and businesses.

AWS T&C - Commerce and Content team will be supporting the T&C’s long term
strategy, which envisions a customer experience where all training
modalities—instructor led training, digital learning, video-game based learning,
certification prep, exams, etc. are available for purchase by individual and
business customers in a central place. This will allow individuals to shop for
T&C products in a central cart and for businesses to centrally manage spend and
entitlements for T&C products.

Why AWS?
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted
cloud platform. We pioneered cloud computing and never stopped innovating —
that’s why customers from the most successful startups to Global 500 companies
