Would you like to help define how the world's largest cloud platform partners with technology companies in Canada? Amazon Web Services (AWS) is looking for a Partner Development Manager to join the Canadian Technology Partnerships and AWS Marketplace team. In this role, you will own strategic relationships with Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) and drive co-sell outcomes through AWS Marketplace, the fastest-growing route to market for enterprise software.

This is not a legacy partner management role. You will operate at the intersection of partner strategy, commercial execution, and marketplace economics. Your job is to accelerate your partners' growth on AWS while building a durable revenue stream through Marketplace Private Offers (MPPOs), co-sell motions, and joint go-to-market plays that connect partners directly to Canadian enterprise customers.

Key job responsibilities

• Own a portfolio of strategic ISV partnerships in Canada. Drive executive-level relationships (CXO, Product, Marketing, Field) and execute joint business plans that grow partner revenue on AWS.
• Drive Marketplace adoption as the primary co-sell channel. Manage the full lifecycle: partner listing strategy, MPPO execution, channel routing with segment sales teams, and deal acceleration.
• Build and manage joint pipeline with assigned partners. Conduct regular business reviews, track pipeline health, and drive deal progression alongside AWS field sales teams.
• Lead the partner-led sales motion in Canada. Identify customer opportunities where partners can lead, connect partners to AWS account teams, and enable field sellers to position partner solutions.
• Create and execute go-to-market programs. Develop joint marketing, demand generation, and partner enablement initiatives that align to Canadian market priorities (energy, AI, public sector, infrastructure).
• Represent your partners internally across AWS. Build internal awareness of your partners' solutions, influence product roadmap discussions, and advocate for partner needs with service teams.
• Prepare and deliver business reviews to senior leadership. Use data, CRM systems, and internal analytics to track performance against targets and communicate results clearly.
• Manage complex commercial engagements including contract negotiations, pricing strategy, and legal coordination.
