About the Role
Amazon Interactive Video Service (IVS) is an end-to-end video delivery service, within Amazon Web Services, which runs one of the largest live video distribution networks in the world. Live streaming is a growing medium for many companies to uniquely engage their audiences. Amazon IVS enables the building and scaling of such live streaming platforms, just as it does for Twitch, where more than a billion hours are streamed live each month.
As the first Head of Growth Marketing for Amazon IVS, you will report into the Twitch Video/IVS business unit . You will be responsible for the marketing strategy and execution to guide self-serve service adoption of IVS among startups and developers building live video streaming experiences. You will think both strategically and tactically: from the creation of marketing strategy and product positioning to the brass tacks of content development, go-to-market efforts and education programs. This includes mapping the customer journey from discovery to trial and activation, developing and executing a marketing plan, and assessing and improving performance along the marketing funnel with quantitative metrics. You will manage IVS's marketing budget, and work with IVS (Design, Product, Business Development), and central AWS Marketing to implement the marketing plan, engaging external resources where needed. Your role is highly visible and global, affecting IVS awareness and self-serve adoption globally, with the opportunity to define and execute regional marketing playbooks. You will also own partner marketing to define and develop joint marketing opportunities with the universe of partners that work with IVS.
