Associate Solutions Architect, APJ ECT SA (Field Tech)

Are you interested in cloud computing and helping customers build on AWS? We have a role you might find interesting.

The AWS Solutions Architecture team is dedicated to working with customers as they build and grow their businesses on AWS. We're here to make sure they can deploy the best, most scalable, and most secure architectures possible - and that they spend as little time and money as possible doing so.

Key job responsibilities

We are looking for technical builders who love the idea of working with customers to help them succeed. In this role, you'll work directly with a variety of interesting customers and help them make the best (and sometimes the most pragmatic) technical decisions along the way. You'll have a chance to build enduring relationships with these companies and establish yourself as a trusted advisor.

As well as spending time working directly with customers, you'll also get plenty of time to "sharpen the saw" and keep your skills fresh. We have more than 175 services across a range of different categories, and it's important that we can help customers take advantage of the right ones. You'll also play an important role as an advocate with our product teams to make sure we are building the right products for the customers you work with. And for the customers you don't get to work with on a 1:1 basis, you'll get the chance to share your knowledge more broadly by working on technical content and presenting at events.

A day in the life

Diverse Experiences AWS values diverse experiences. Even if you do not meet all of the preferred qualifications and skills listed in the job description, we encourage candidates to apply. If your career is just starting, hasn't followed a traditional path, or includes alternative experiences, don't let it stop you from applying.

Why AWS? Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world's most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform. We pioneered cloud computing and never stopped innovating - that's why customers from the fastest-growing companies to Global 500 enterprises trust our robust suite of products and services to power their businesses.

Inclusive Team Culture Here at AWS, it's in our nature to learn and be curious. Our employee-led affinity groups foster a culture of inclusion that empowers us to be proud of our differences. Ongoing events and learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences, inspire us to never stop embracing our uniqueness.

Mentorship & Career Growth We're continuously raising our performance bar as we strive to become Earth's Best Employer. That's why you'll find endless knowledge-sharing, mentorship and other career-advancing resources here to help you develop into a better-rounded professional.

Work/Life Balance We value work-life harmony. Achieving success at work should never come at the expense of sacrifices at home, which is why we strive for flexibility as part of our working culture. When we feel supported in the workplace and at home, there's nothing we can't achieve in the cloud.
