Migration Sales Lead
AWS is seeking a Migration Sales Lead to drive large-scale migration and modernization revenue growth in Taiwan. You will be the subject-matter expert that account teams rely on to identify, pursue, and close migration opportunities — with a strong focus on on-premises to cloud migrations and cloud-to-cloud workload transitions (including VMware estate migrations and competitive cloud repatriation).
This role operates in an overlay model — partnering with account teams without directly owning customer relationships — to proactively identify high-propensity migration targets, build compelling business cases, and guide customers through end-to-end migration journeys. You will own opportunities from the Qualified stage forward — driving pipeline creation, accelerating deal velocity, and building scalable go-to-market capabilities that extend your impact across Taiwan's customer base.
If you excel at translating technical migration capabilities into business value while consistently exceeding revenue targets, this is the role for you.
