About the job

Description

Are you passionate about working at the intersection of finance, technology, and strategy for one of AWS's most critical business areas? Join the EC2 Pricing Finance team, where you'll shape pricing decisions for Core EC2 and GenAI workloads that power millions of businesses worldwide. This role goes beyond traditional finance. You will directly influence pricing strategy, capital allocation, and infrastructure economics for GPU and custom silicon platforms including Trainium, and Graviton.

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. Operating in a fast-paced, high-visibility environment, you'll lead complex pricing analyses, support multi-billion-dollar customer negotiations, and drive tooling improvements that underpin EC2's marginal cost models.

• Drive process improvements and innovation in pricing finance mechanisms, collaborating across Finance, Deal Desk, Supply Chain, and Infrastructure teams to enhance accuracy and efficiency of EC2 pricing models

A day in the life Your day blends strategic analysis with high-impact collaboration across AWS's most critical infrastructure decisions.

Afternoons often involve supporting active customer deal negotiations, building financial models that evaluate pricing tradeoffs, or preparing executive materials that influence long-term pricing strategy. You'll work with engineering and supply chain teams to refine pricing methodologies while responding quickly to market changes in this dynamic, highly visible role.
