Amazon names AWS exec Prasad Kalyanaraman to S-team, promotes Dave Brown to SVP

Amazon appointed AWS infrastructure chief Prasad Kalyanaraman to its senior leadership S-team and promoted Dave Brown to senior vice president, underscoring a continued executive emphasis on cloud infrastructure and AI services (EC2, Bedrock, SageMaker). CEO Andy Jassy framed the moves as recognition for delivery, customer focus and long-term leadership. The S-team now counts 28 members, down from more than 30 in 2023, after several departures and internal reshuffles. Market impact is likely modest and qualitative: the changes signal continuity and senior-level prioritization of AWS infrastructure and AI, which could reassure investors about execution on cloud and AI growth drivers but do not constitute an immediate corporate or financial event.
