The shadow advisor role at Amazon, formally referred to as "technical advisor," is one of the most coveted positions at the company, involving participation in nearly every CEO meeting.
With Alex Dunlap's appointment as shadow advisor, Amazon renews its focus on software-as-a-service, a sector where it has not yet established a strong presence despite AWS's cloud dominance.
Former shadow advisors, including CEO Andy Jassy and other top executives, often transition to significant roles within Amazon, showcasing the importance of this position in career trajectories.
Dunlap, a veteran of Amazon Web Services, replaces Eric Rimling to continue developing business applications, an area where Amazon aims to expand its offerings.
