My resume got shortlisted for Operations Associate/Engineer-Amazon Managed Services role. I am an experienced AWS engineer with 5YOE.I feel like this role will be degrading in nature for me. Is it worth joining for this position. I would love to join Amazon based on my experience and skill set. But Not to some position which doesn't require AWS experience.

Need advice. I’m a super senior content EP at a well known agency in the U.S., where I’ve been for quite some time. Checked out http://Glassdoor.com, and I make at the high end of the ranges for similar agencies. In the past year I’ve also taken on additional responsibilities (outside of traditional EP duties) that have doubled my workload and raised my profile quite a bit. How should I go about brining up a sizable salary bump (some creatives and even planning peeps earn more with much less responsibility)?

May not be easy...but play up the planning part and be able to point to an example of work you've done. You're junior, so use it to your advantage. It's common for young people to refine their career paths...I did that myself. If I can switch from a buying agency to strategy, you can too. Just takes some work!
If you can, play up your ability to partner with creative teams. Show that you are a builder of ideas. A lot of times media people are perceived as the stoppers of creativity, just talking budgets and what's affordable. Be a believer that 'good ideas get funded'. I made the opposite move from creative to media. It's been a great experience...good luck!

Are you saying moving from media to brand strategy? You will have to sell it - totally different job. But you can do it.
Yes exactly that- media to creative strategy. thanks!
