Sr. Partner Solutions Architect, Anz Partner Team

Amazon Amazon · Big Tech · NSW, Australia +1 · Solutions Architect

This role is for a Senior Partner Solutions Architect at Amazon Web Services (AWS) in ANZ. The primary focus is on building technical relationships with strategic partners, advising them on cloud and AI adoption, designing scalable solutions on AWS, and driving the adoption of AWS services. The role involves technical leadership, influencing architectural decisions, and contributing thought leadership through various channels. While AI is mentioned as a domain of expertise, the core function is enabling partners to leverage AWS services, not directly building or shipping AI models.

  2. Drive technical solution discussions, diving deep to create scalable, resilient cloud architectures aligned with partners' and customers' long-term business needs.
  3. Design and deliver enablement programs: workshops, reference architectures, and best-practice guides, that uplift partner technical capability at scale.
  4. Contribute thought leadership through whitepapers, blogs, event presentations, and workshops that help partners and customers innovate.
  5. Collaborate cross-functionally with Account SAs, Sales, TAMs, Business Development, and AWS service teams to accelerate customer adoption of partner solutions.
