This is not your typical Sales Development role. Do you crave an environment that is fast-paced and highly innovative? Do you aspire to continuously learn and grow? Join a growing team at the market leader for cloud services and help shape the future of the North America Sales organization!
Digital Acquisition is the first face of AWS. When a customer raises their hand — whether through a Contact Sales form or a Live Chat on the AWS website — we are the team that answers. We are the front door to one of the world's most innovative technology companies and the first human connection in a customer's AWS journey. We specifically seek out technically sharp sales professionals with proven experience who are chosen to represent AWS at its most critical moment.
We are a deliberately small, high-caliber team. Every rep on Digital Acquisition was selected for their ability to operate with speed, technical credibility and commercial instinct — often all three at once. Our hiring bar is high because the role demands it. You will be trusted to engage any customer, at any level, on any workload, with no warm handoff and no safety net. The expectation is that you make it look effortless.
As a Customer Acquisition Representative (CAR) on the Digital Acquisition team, you will own the moment that matters most: when a prospect's interest is at its peak. No two conversations are the same. In a single day you might help a startup architect their first cloud environment, uncover a multi-million dollar enterprise migration buried in a simple pricing question or go head-to-head with a competing vendor in a live chat with a Fortune 500 CTO. You will need to think fast, qualify quickly and know when to bring in the right technical and account resources to accelerate a deal.
What sets this role apart is the combination of technical depth and sales acumen required to succeed. You will need to hold credible conversations about architecture, workload sizing, cloud economics and competitive positioning — not as a solutions architect but as a trusted advisor who knows enough to recognize opportunity when it's right in front of you and move on it immediately.
You will partner closely with Cloud Sales Reps, Solutions Architects and Field Sales teams across all US and Canadian territories, operating as a trusted qualifier who sets the foundation for deals that matter. The best people in this role don't wait to be coached on what to say, rather they bring the experience, the curiosity and the confidence to lead.
If you're a technically sharp sales professional with proven experience who thrives in fast-paced environments, gets energized by variety and want to be where inbound interest meets elite sales execution, then this is the role for you.
Key job responsibilities
- Respond to inbound customer inquiries via Contact Us forms and Live Chat with speed and precision, converting customer intent into qualified opportunities while interest is at its peak
- Lead discovery conversations that go beyond the surface-level ask, uncovering technical requirements, business challenges and buying signals that others would miss
- Hold credible, substantive conversations with customers across all levels, from technical admins to C-suite executives, on topics including cloud architecture, workload migration, AI/ML and cloud economics
- Qualify opportunities with rigor, accurately assessing customer fit, timeline, budget and decision process before routing to the appropriate account or field sales team
- Partner closely with Solutions Architects, Cloud Sales Reps and Field Sales teams across all US and Canadian territories to ensure seamless handoffs and clear next steps
- Maintain accurate and detailed pipeline activity, using data and self-service reporting to track performance and identify conversion trends
- Continuously deepen your AWS product knowledge and technical acumen to stay ahead of customer questions and competitive conversations
- Bring a bias for action and creative thinking to every customer interaction, finding new ways to engage, qualify and accelerate opportunities that others wouldn't see

Search Distribution & Wholesale Jobs in VirginiaDistribution & Wholesale Jobs in Virginia: Frequently Asked Questions
Which distribution and wholesale companies sponsor E-3 visas in Virginia?
Virginia's distribution and wholesale sector includes national operators with documented E-3 and specialty occupation sponsorship activity. Companies such as Amazon, Sysco Mid-Atlantic, W.W. Grainger, McKesson, and Cardinal Health maintain Virginia distribution and regional headquarters operations. Larger employers with established immigration programs are generally better positioned to support E-3 filings, as they have in-house HR and legal resources familiar with the Labor Condition Application process required for E-3 sponsorship.
Which cities in Virginia have the most distribution and wholesale E-3 sponsorship jobs?
Northern Virginia, particularly Dulles, Chantilly, and Sterling, concentrates significant distribution and wholesale employment tied to the technology supply chain and e-commerce fulfillment sector. Richmond serves as a central Mid-Atlantic distribution hub with food service and industrial wholesale operations. The Hampton Roads area, anchored by the Port of Virginia in Norfolk and Chesapeake, supports import-export wholesale and freight-forwarding roles that can qualify for E-3 sponsorship.
What types of distribution and wholesale roles typically qualify for E-3 sponsorship?
E-3 sponsorship requires the position to meet the USCIS specialty occupation standard, meaning it must normally require at least a bachelor's degree in a directly related field. In distribution and wholesale, qualifying roles commonly include supply chain analyst, procurement specialist, logistics operations manager, demand planning analyst, and inventory control manager. General warehouse supervisor or picker-packer roles typically do not meet the specialty occupation threshold, regardless of employer size or Virginia location.
How do I find distribution and wholesale E-3 sponsorship jobs in Virginia?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for Australian professionals searching for E-3 sponsorship roles, including distribution and wholesale positions across Virginia. Listings are filtered for employers with verified E-3 and specialty occupation sponsorship history, so you can focus on companies already familiar with the Labor Condition Application process. Searching by industry and Virginia location on Migrate Mate surfaces relevant roles in supply chain, procurement, and logistics operations without needing to screen out non-sponsoring employers manually.
Are there any Virginia-specific considerations for E-3 sponsorship in distribution and wholesale?
Virginia does not impose state-level visa sponsorship requirements beyond federal E-3 obligations, but employers operating in the Port of Virginia trade corridor or contracting with federal agencies in Northern Virginia may have additional compliance frameworks, including E-Verify enrollment mandates for federal contractors. Australian professionals should confirm that their prospective employer's Virginia worksite is the one named on the Labor Condition Application, as multi-site distribution operations sometimes require separate LCA filings for different facility locations.
What is the prevailing wage for E-3 distribution & wholesale jobs in Virginia?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
