Original job description

AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. In other words, we’re the people who keep the cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain - and we’re looking for talented people who want to help. You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.

The Networking team is looking for a driven, organized, and collaborative Strategic Category Manager for Switches Portfolio. The Strategic Category Manager will be a strategic thinker responsible for developing strategic operations that enable a highly robust, and resilient supply chain to fuel the exponential growth across AWS data centers. In this role, you will lead the organization while diving deep into the technologies and operations both from a product and supply chain perspective. The ideal candidate will have a large-scale technical supply chain management background, be detail-oriented, skilled at global supply chain strategies, and excel in creative problem solving, negotiations and program management. This role requires the ability to manage multiple parallel programs across different lifecycle stages. The successful candidate must be a self-starter comfortable with ambiguity, with high attention to detail, and a proven ability to work in a fast-paced and ever-changing environment. Candidates must have excellent analytical capabilities, particularly in Finance, program management experience, be comfortable diving deep into data, have strong writing skills, lead executive-level reviews, and communicate clearly and effectively to all levels of the company, both in writing and in meetings. The ideal candidate will not only raise the bar on delivering a best-in-class process to manage a complex supply chain and procurement operation, but is also a person who actively participates with a strong curiosity to understand the business end-to-end, and has a track record of using data to influence decision makers.

Key job responsibilities

Establish category sourcing strategies for the Switch category and gain alignment on the vision/roadmap with senior leadership
Develop category expertise and depth, including: knowledge of industry, sub categories, supply base, benchmarks and indices as well as industry leaders, laggards, and niche players
Analyze category details to proactively ensure continuity of supply, and exploit emerging opportunities that benefit Amazon
Lead complex and cross-functional projects
Serve as a key member of the AWS Infrastructure supply chain team in helping to define and deliver key processes to manage complex supply chain strategies.
Build robust and scalable sourcing processes that interface with many critical components within AWS' server architecture
Manage complex financial and legal requirements and lead key inventory activities that will impact our supply chain.
Produce written recommendations and insights for key stakeholders to help shape solution design.

A day in the life Our environment is fast-paced and requires someone who is hard-working, meticulous and energetic, who gets things done at an effective pace, gets results, and is comfortable working with tight deadlines and changing priorities

About the team Diverse Experiences AWS values diverse experiences. Even if you do not meet all of the preferred qualifications and skills listed in the job description, we encourage candidates to apply. If your career is just starting, hasn’t followed a traditional path, or includes alternative experiences, don’t let it stop you from applying.

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 trust our robust suite of products and services to power their businesses.

Work/Life Balance We value work-life harmony. Achieving success at work should never come at the expense of sacrifices at home, which is why we strive for flexibility as part of our working culture. When we feel supported in the workplace and at home, there’s nothing we can’t achieve in the cloud.

Inclusive Team Culture Here at AWS, it’s in our nature to learn and be curious. Our employee-led affinity groups foster a culture of inclusion that empower us to be proud of our differences. Ongoing events and learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences, inspire us to never stop embracing our uniqueness.

Mentorship and Career Growth We’re continuously raising our performance bar as we strive to become Earth’s Best Employer. That’s why you’ll find endless knowledge-sharing, mentorship and other career-advancing resources here to help you develop into a better-rounded professional.

A Little About the Team The Networking team is made up of global category managers (GCM), global supply managers (GSM), and product lifecycle managers (PLM) who manage the broad base of networking suppliers and internal amazon initiatives that help build the AWS cloud. We drive supply continuity, cost optimization, and technology introduction for networking hardware. We are located throughout multiple regional hubs in the united states and work with suppliers and business partners globally. We are a mix of industry experts and those aspiring to grow our industry expertise. We all bring something valuable to the table from our unique backgrounds; we highlight and celebrate our diverse backgrounds and leverage them to our collective benefit as a team.
