Singapur, Singapore Amazon Web Services Singapore Private Limited - D55 Full time
Want to be part of a public policy team at the forefront of the energy transition? With Amazon as the world’s largest purchaser of renewable power (including across much of the Asia-Pacific region), combined with Amazon Web Services’ role as the leading cloud provider powering the digitalization of countless organizations working to decarbonize regional grids, you’ll find Amazon/AWS at the center of the energy transition.

We are looking for a policy professional with demonstrated expertise in navigating regional energy regulations, market rules, and related policies to drive AWS’s Energy Policy and Regulatory Affairs work in APAC. The successful candidate will have deep familiarity and experience with public policies concerning the energy industry, market institutions, grid systems, and related regulatory bodies, particularly for electric power generation, transmission and distribution.

This role can be located in Northeast Asia (e.g. Japan, Korea, Taiwan), Southeast Asia (e.g. Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand), Australia/New Zealand, or South Asia (India), but no matter where they are located, they should be someone with deep, region-wide hands-on technical experience with utility industry stakeholders, market rules, and regulatory environments.

Ability to travel as needed, primarily within APAC.

Key job responsibilities
- Develop and execute advocacy strategies that support AWS’s energy needs and infrastructure development.
- Manage related policy priorities and lead engagements with various regional, national, and sub-national electric power / grid-related policymaking and/or regulatory bodies, as well as utilities, grid operators, and related industry groups / trade associations.
- Deepen relationships with external stakeholders and experts to identify opportunities and risks arising from policy and regulatory developments that would impact AWS’s long-term growth.
- Work closely with internal business partners to draft and contribute to policy/regulatory submissions, and engage in consultations with relevant policy/regulatory stakeholders.
- Contribute to energy policy advocacy / thought leadership efforts within AWS, including coordinating and developing public policy collateral, such as policy position papers and talking points.
- Provide expert advice to internal business partners and assist them in developing their respective business strategies.

A day in the life
In this role, you will lead the development of AWS's regional energy policy/regulatory positioning and advocacy strategies, as well as coordination across varied groups of stakeholders (both internal and external) to execute on these and deliver meaningful outcomes, including in regional grid management and capacity planning processes, as well as the development of market rules and incentives to support the integration of new grid enhancing/decarbonizing technologies.

About the team
AWS Global Public Policy’s core mission is to protect our customers’ choice and preserve the flexibility to use our infrastructure and services. We pursue this mission by owning the relationship with policymakers and regulators’ policy and strategy teams, and building alliances of industry and third-party stakeholders.
