Sruthi Thorlapati

As a Finance Manager at Amazon Web Services (Amazon Inc.), I bring over six years of experience driving operational excellence in Accounts Receivable, Cash Management, and Financial Operations. Since 2019, I’ve been leading initiatives that optimize working capital, strengthen credit and collections strategies, and improve global cash flow processes to support AWS’s rapid growth and customer-centric mission.

In my role, I work closely with business analysts to gather and interpret AR-related data, ensuring accurate reporting, actionable insights, and data-driven decision-making across global receivables operations. By combining analytical rigor with operational expertise, I help identify trends, streamline processes, and support strategic initiatives that enhance cash flow and mitigate risk.

I also have hands-on expertise in indirect and direct tax compliance—including GST, TDS, and Withholding Taxes (WHT)—ensuring adherence to statutory requirements and minimizing financial risks across multiple jurisdictions.

My focus is on financial stewardship and process innovation—partnering cross-functionally with business, sales, and technical teams to deliver scalable solutions that improve cash conversion cycles, reduce risk exposure, and ensure compliance across diverse geographies.

Key strengths include:

Global Accounts Receivable & Collections Management

Cash Application & Treasury Operations

Credit Risk Assessment & Policy Development

Collaboration with Business Analysts for AR Data & Reporting

GST, TDS & WHT Tax Compliance

Process Automation & Systems Optimization (ERP/SaaS tools)

Cross-functional Leadership & Stakeholder Management
