AWS boss steps down after 15 years at Amazon

The development and deployment of several of Amazon’s key generative AI features, including Bedrock and Amazon Q, were also overseen by Selipsky, Jassy noted. AWS is “in a a strong position,” he added, as it has topped $100 billion in annual revenue rates as of the previous quarter and continues to perform well in terms of reliability, security and performance.

Selipsky’s replacement, as of June 3, will be Matt Garman, who started at Amazon as an intern in 2005 and has been a product manager of various units, including EC2 and EBS, as well as general manager of AWS Compute. Most recently, Garman has worked on the demand generation side of AWS as leader of the worldwide sales and marketing team.

“Matt knows our customers and business as well as anybody in the world, and has senior leadership experience on both the product and demand generation sides,” Jassy wrote.
