Principal Strategist, Energy & Water Infrastructure, Energy & Water - Asia Pacific Region
Other Engineering · Full-time
Posted on Oct 1, 2026
Description
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is seeking a Principal-level strategic leader to define and orchestrate the energy and water regulatory and community strategy across the Asia-Pacific region. This is a high-visibility role that operates at the intersection of regulatory policy, energy markets, and community engagement, requiring industry expertise to shape the environment in which AWS deploys critical infrastructure at scale.
You will orchestrate regulatory and community strategy across interconnected pillars: energy and water regulatory strategy that informs advocacy and prepares organizations for changing policy landscapes; and community strategy that builds social license to operate and positions AWS as a responsible, transparent infrastructure partner. You will work closely with Public Policy teams and will serve as the external face of AWS energy and water infrastructure in APAC, representing the organization at industry conferences, in media engagements, and before regulatory forums.
Key job responsibilities
- Regulatory Strategy: Own the APAC energy, water, and sustainability regulatory strategy; monitor and forecast policy changes across markets, and proactively shape frameworks before they crystallize.
- Advocacy Direction: Set the strategic direction that informs Public Policy priorities; providing the technical analysis, impact assessments, and positions that determine where and how AWS engages regulators and industry bodies.
- Regulatory Readiness: Prepare internal teams to anticipate and respond to changing regulations, translating regulatory risk into practical action.
- Community Strategy & Social License: Own a proactive community engagement framework, treating social license as a critical path for infrastructure delivery, and mitigate sentiment risk through transparent messaging on sustainability, clean energy, and water stewardship
