About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • AI GTM strategy. Define Avahi's AI/GenAI go-to-market, including which industries, which use cases, which buyer personas, and which AWS services we lead with.
  • Customer-facing AI advisory. Be the senior technical voice in our largest enterprise pursuits.
  • AWS-facing evangelism. Build deep relationships with AWS solutions architects, partner managers, and AI specialist teams.
  • External thought leadership. Author Avahi's AI point of view in long-form (whitepapers, AWS co-authored content), short-form (LinkedIn, conference keynotes), and on stage.
  • Solutions Engineering & AI Pre-Sales leadership. Own the team that builds demos, runs POCs, and supports sales technically.
  • Demo and reference architecture portfolio. Build a living library of working AI demos and reference architectures that customers and AWS sellers actually want to see.
  • Partnership with CTO and CRO. Co-own the seam between platform engineering and revenue execution.

Requirements

What you’ll need
  • 15+ years in enterprise technology , with the last 5+ focused on AI/ML, GenAI, or applied data science at scale.
  • You've shipped real systems, even if you don't write production code anymore.
  • Field CTO, Principal SA, or VP-level customer-facing experience at AWS, another hyperscaler, an AI platform company (Databricks, Snowflake, OpenAI, Anthropic, Cohere), or a top-tier consultancy.
  • Deep AWS fluency. You know the AWS AI/ML stack (Bedrock, SageMaker, Q, agentic services) at architectural depth.
  • Executive presence. You can hold a room with a Fortune 500 CIO and a room of 500 conference attendees.
  • Proven team leader. You've built and run technical pre-sales or solutions engineering teams of 10 to 30 people.
  • Startup Founder/Business fluency. You read a P&L, understand services unit economics, and can have a real conversation about deal margin, utilization, and pipeline shape, not just technology.
  • Bias to ship. Prototypes over polish. POCs over decks. You don't need a perfect slide to start a conversation.
