About Kristen Hahn

I work at the intersection of enterprise infrastructure, AI, and ecosystem partnerships, helping organizations modernize how they build and scale compute platforms across data centers and cloud environments.As an Enterprise Territory Executive at AMD, I partner with some of the world’s largest organizations to evaluate infrastructure strategy across on-premise, hybrid, and hyperscale cloud environments. My focus is helping customers adopt modern compute platforms that improve performance, efficiency, and long-term architectural flexibility while reducing dependence on single-vendor ecosystems.Much of my work centers around building and orchestrating complex technology partnerships. I collaborate closely with global OEMs including Dell Technologies, HPE, Lenovo, Nutanix, Cisco, and Supermicro, along with hyperscale cloud providers such as Microsoft Azure, AWS, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, and Google Cloud. Together we design solutions that support modern workloads including AI/ML, virtualization, high-performance computing, and enterprise-scale applications.Since entering the technology industry in 2014, I have consistently exceeded sales targets while expanding platform adoption within complex enterprise environments. I’ve built a reputation for navigating large organizations, aligning executive stakeholders, and translating technical innovation into clear business outcomes and revenue growth.My background in psychology from Shepherd University shaped how I approach leadership and enterprise sales. Technology decisions are rarely just technical, they are human decisions involving risk, trust, and long-term strategy. Understanding those dynamics has been a key part of building strong customer and partner relationships.Beyond revenue growth, I care deeply about mentorship and representation in technology and actively support communities like Women in Cloud that help create more pathways for women in the industry.
