Are you ready to solve some of the world's most complex data challenges at scale? We're looking for a highly technical cloud computing architect to collaborate with our customers and partners on innovative Big Data and Analytics solutions that transform how organizations leverage their data.
At AWS, you'll work with cutting-edge technologies including real-time and batch-based data processing, business intelligence, and machine learning to help organizations build faster, more cost-effective solutions on the cloud.
Key job responsibilities
- Design and architect customer analytics solutions by collaborating with AWS field teams and partners to help organizations effectively learn and implement AWS analytics services such as EMR, Redshift, Kinesis, Lambda, and RDS.
- Develop engagement strategies by working with solution architects, account managers, and professional services to create tailored analytics approaches for AWS territories and key accounts.
- Contribute to thought leadership by authoring external publications, white papers, and reference architectures, and by providing internal training and coaching to solution architects, consultants, and trainers.
- Support customer success as a key member of the business development and account management team, helping ensure organizations successfully build and migrate applications and services on the AWS platform.
- Capture and share best practices across the global AWS solution architect community to continuously improve how we support analytics implementations.
A day in the life As an AWS Analytics Solutions Architect, you'll spend your time bridging the gap between our customers' complex data challenges and AWS's powerful analytics services. You might begin your day designing a data warehousing solution using services like Redshift and EMR for a Fortune 500 company, then shift to collaborating with our sales and professional services teams to refine an implementation strategy. You'll engage directly with solution architects and account managers to develop tailored analytics strategies for key accounts, while also contributing thought leadership through blog posts, white papers, and reference architectures that guide the broader AWS community. Beyond these core activities, you'll mentor other technical teams, capture best practices from implementations worldwide, and stay current with industry trends across different market segments and verticals.
About the team We are a collaborative team of technical experts dedicated to bringing innovative cloud computing solutions to organizations facing significant cost and agility challenges.

Together, we're committed to ensuring customer success as they build and migrate their analytics applications and services to AWS. This is an opportunity to be part of a group that values continuous learning, knowledge sharing, and collective problem-solving across a global community.
