AWS Partnerships Lead, DACH

Anthropic’s mission is to create reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. We want AI to be safe and beneficial for our users and for society as a whole. Our team is a quickly growing group of committed researchers, engineers, policy experts, and business leaders working together to build beneficial AI systems.

Anthropic is hiring an AWS Partnerships Lead to own and scale our AWS co-sell motion across the DACH region. This is our second dedicated AWS GTM hire in EMEA, giving you the rare opportunity to build the playbook for how Anthropic and AWS go to market together in the region — from the ground up. You'll be the face of Anthropic to AWS field teams across DACH, driving joint pipeline, co-selling into enterprise customers, and shaping how frontier AI technology reaches the market through one of our most strategic partnerships. You'll work with limited local scaffolding — which is the point. You'll define the motion, influence stakeholders on both sides, and turn a nascent partnership into a material revenue engine.

This is a high-impact, zero-to-one role for someone who thrives in ambiguity, has deep cloud partnerships DNA, and wants to help commercialize frontier AI safely and responsibly.

• Experience at a late-stage growth or early-stage startup, especially one that scaled its EMEA presence from a small base
