Amazon Senior Startup BD Operations Analyst, GSO - STARTUP (SUP) - Sales Operations - SBO in San Francisco, California
Description
The AWS Startup Operations team is seeking a scrappy, self-directed Senior BD Operations Analyst to help us scale how we reach the next generation of top startups through their investors. This role will be a key member of the Startup Operations Team, responsible for building the internal operational infrastructure needed to power a global investor management strategy and enable our Startup Business Development team to strategically engage investors and the high-potential startups in their portfolios. A typical day might include building systems and processes to improve top investor data quality and funding event coverage, establishing top investor inspection cadences to review the health of key investor relationships and globally standardized investor performance metrics, or rolling out a global competitive collection intelligence mechanism to utilize first party insights received from the field.
Candidates should have strong operational backgrounds with demonstrated experience scaling operational processes, designing playbooks, translating business problem statements into product proposal or analysis requirements, and streamlining productivity through automation and standardization. Top candidates are motivated self-managers who can lead large-scale projects end-to-end, extract strategic business insights from large data sets, and have deep familiarity with the startup ecosystem. They will have the ability to thrive on figuring out what to do and making it happen, often in complex and ambiguous environments where strong bias for action is required. A keen sense of ownership, drive, and analytical rigor is a must, as are sharp written and verbal communication skills that can concisely articulate persuasive data-driven decisions.
Key job responsibilities
Partner with business analytics counterparts and data engineering counterparts to power implementation of an investor data management program.
Assist in management of the Startup BD goal setting and forecasting process, analyzing trends and variances impacting progress.
Streamline Startup BD operations processes to drive consistency and scalability, such as standardized approaches to data management in SFDC and creation of self-service tools.
Implement tools and technologies to automate repetitive operational tasks and improve productivity.
Lead efforts to improve cross-team cohesion around tracking, reporting, and ongoing data management.
Document and socialize best practices to enable the broader Startup BD and Startup Operations teams.
Leverage data-driven insights to identify opportunities for process improvements and operational efficiencies.
Proactively develop new metrics and frameworks to answer key business questions.
Prepare and deliver data-driven reviews to leadership on progress, achievements, and roadblocks to scale.
Build alignment with adjacent teams and influence multiple stakeholders to work towards common goals.
