Join the EC2 Pricing Finance team, where you'll shape pricing decisions for Core EC2 and AI workloads that power millions of businesses worldwide. This unique role goes beyond traditional finance, directly influencing pricing strategy, capital allocation, and infrastructure economics across GPU infrastructure, networking, and data center operations.
You'll develop deep expertise in AWS infrastructure economics and Gen AI business modeling while becoming a trusted finance partner to EC2 Product, Deal Desk, Service Finance, and executive leadership.
