Application deadline: Aug 27, 2026 The Department of War is undergoing a rapid, consequential AI-enabled transformation. Frontier AI is moving from research programs to operational capability, and the infrastructure decisions made in the next 24 months will determine which missions can field it. Cloud is no longer an IT modernization story. It is the substrate for training, deploying, and sustaining AI at mission scale. We are looking for a technologist who can operate at the intersection of frontier AI and national security. As an Account Manager on the AWS Global Defense AI team, you will partner directly with the team's senior AI strategist to drive the technical go‑to‑market strategy, manage the AI opportunity portfolio, and accelerate adoption across the Department's most consequential defense accounts. You will earn trust with the military and civilian leaders responsible for fielding these capabilities, translate mission requirements into technical use cases, and qualify and progress the largest AI opportunities in the federal market. Who You Are You are a builder who thrives in ambiguity. You can defend a technical position in front of a skeptical government chief engineer in the morning and translate the same material into a funding argument for a resource sponsor in the afternoon.

You have worn the uniform or worked close enough to it that the mission is not an abstraction. • You speak the language of the mission, the program office, and the model training run • You hold technical credibility in machine learning, earned by building or deploying real systems • You understand AI infrastructure economics: accelerated computing, high‑performance networking, and the cost structure of training and inference at scale • You are comfortable operating in a fast‑moving environment where strategy and execution happen simultaneously • You have genuine passion for the mission, not just the deal This position requires that the candidate selected be a US citizen and currently possess and maintain an active Top Secret/SCI security clearance.

WorkMundi's database shows 74,689 open sales positions globally. India leads with 17,483 jobs, followed by the US with 13,876. If you're open to geography, you have real options — but the sheer number means you need a filter. Don't apply to everything. Pick a country, a company size, and a sales model that matches what you actually want to do.
Almost 8 in 10 of these ads have their text written in English. That's useful for reading the job description and understanding what you're signing up for. But it tells you nothing about whether the role requires you to speak English with customers, partners, or your team. Ask the hiring manager directly during your first conversation.
The employers posting the most are boxlunch, SIMPLE RECRUIT, FlexBoard, and tmobile. If you see their name on a listing, you know they're actively hiring. That can work in your favor — high-volume recruiters often move faster. But volume also means competition. Your application needs to stand out.
Sales interviews almost always include a version of this: 'Tell me about a time you lost a deal. What did you learn?' Prepare a real story where you take ownership of what went wrong and what you'd do differently. Hiring managers want to see you learn, not just win.
