Key job responsibilities Design System Leadership & Brand Coherence - Craft the strategic vision for the AWS design system - working collaboratively with leaders across marketing, product, events, and developer experiences to bring it to life. - Establish design principles, patterns, and governance that flex across diverse surface areas without becoming rigid or generic - Champion the “Make, Say, Do” framework - ensuring design consistency not just in what we create, but how we communicate and how our products behave Influence & Bar-Raising - Serve as the senior design voice in cross-functional forums, bringing clarity
