A sales leader from cloud and satellite
According to Tomorrow.io, Rizzo spent the last 7.5 years at Amazon building go-to-market organizations in cloud and satellite. He joined AWS as the first global sales hire for AWS Ground Station and led its commercial launch. He later led North America for the AWS Aerospace & Satellite business.
His most recent role was leading the North and South American business for Amazon Leo, where, the company says, he built the enterprise sales organization from the ground up.
Tomorrow.io describes a career of nearly 20 years in cloud, satellite, SaaS and emerging technology. In that time Rizzo has built multiple sales teams into repeatable, scalable organizations and launched new business units. He has also owned executive relationships with Fortune 50 and mid-market customers across retail, logistics, media and entertainment, energy, fintech and other sectors.
Data as the bottleneck, DeepSky as the answer
The announcement also sets out how Tomorrow.io sees its market. CEO Shimon Elkabetz said: "In weather, the blocker for AI and better accuracy isn’t the model, it’s the lack of data." He added that "DeepSky is going to become the infrastructure of data for everywhere in the world."
To bring that to market, Elkabetz said, the company needs "a revenue leader who can match that ambition." He said Rizzo has built and scaled global go-to-market teams around breakthrough technology and has owned executive relationships with some of the world's largest enterprises. Elkabetz said he wants Rizzo to lead the company's "next phase of growth."
The source does not give further details on DeepSky, such as its products, timeline or pricing.
What Rizzo says and what it means
Rizzo said Tomorrow.io is "helping organizations act on weather before it affects their business," and credited Elkabetz, Rei, Itai and the wider team with building "a strong foundation for this next chapter." He said he wants to build "a go-to-market engine that matches the strength of the product and the ambition of this team."
The hire signals that Tomorrow.io is putting commercial execution at the center of its next stage. The company has recently been in the news for government work, including selection for NOAA's Space-Based Environmental Monitoring IDIQ on Sep 21, 2026, selection to lead NOAA's Earth Prediction Innovation Center on Aug 25, 2026, and a NASA CSDA Program Evaluation Task Order for Microwave Sounder Data on Sep 24, 2026.
For customers and partners, Rizzo's background in enterprise sales across cloud and satellite points to a push to sell weather data and intelligence to large organizations. The announcement does not state start dates, targets or changes to the sales structure.
