Amazon Shipping is building a high-growth business designed to transform how the world thinks about logistics. We're rapidly expanding our shipping and delivery services to brands and merchants across the U.S., and we're looking for Sales Operations leaders who can help scale complex, enterprise-grade sales motions with precision and rigor.

As a Principal Sales Operations Lead for the Enterprise segment, you will own the operational backbone for our most complex customer engagements. You will design tools, workflows, and enablement mechanisms that support long sales cycles, multi-stakeholder buying committees, bespoke solutions, and rigorous governance-ensuring enterprise deals move efficiently from opportunity to value realization.

About You

You are a strategic, detail-oriented Sales Operations specialist who excels in complex, high-stakes environments. You understand how enterprise sales and business development actually work-not just in theory-and design operational mechanisms that support real-world deal complexity, customization, and risk management.

You balance precision with pragmatism, operating comfortably with senior stakeholders while staying deeply grounded in process, data, and execution. You anticipate where enterprise deals stall, design solutions to remove friction, and bring structure to ambiguity through clear operating models and decision frameworks.

Key job responsibilities

  • Own and scale enterprise sales operations, including RFx processes, approval workflows, and enterprise-specific Salesforce tooling.
  • Design and deliver value realization tools, pricing support mechanisms, and templates that help enterprise customers quantify impact and justify decisions.
  • Partner with Marketing on enterprise case studies, strategic narratives, and enablement assets aligned to complex customer needs.
  • Refine enterprise account ownership models, goal-setting frameworks, and reporting to reflect long sales cycles and multi-threaded engagement.
  • Oversee enterprise Voice of Customer (VOC) insights and translate learnings into improvements across business development process, tooling, and enablement.
  • Coordinate strategic customer initiatives across partner teams.

About the Company

Amazon.com Inc

At Amazon, we don’t wait for the next big idea to present itself. We envision the shape of impossible things and then we boldly make them reality. So far, this mindset has helped us achieve some incredible things. Let’s build new systems, challenge the status quo, and design the world we want to live in. We believe the work you do here will be the best work of your life.

Wherever you are in your career exploration, Amazon likely has an opportunity for you. Our research scientists and engineers shape the future of natural language understanding with Alexa. Fulfillment center associates around the globe send customer orders from our warehouses to doorsteps. Product managers set feature requirements, strategy, and marketing messages for brand new customer experiences. And as we grow, we’ll add jobs that haven’t been invented yet.

It’s Always Day 1
At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

Our Leadership Principles
Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
