Senior Specialist Solutions Architect
Amazon
Sells products online and rents cloud computing
Do you like helping customers implement innovative cloud computing solutions and solve technical problems? Would you like to do this using the latest cloud computing and AI technologies? Do you have a knack for helping groups understand application architectures and integration approaches? Do you have the consultative and leadership skills to help customers succeed with their cloud efforts? Are you passionate about cloud computing with a special focus on virtualized desktops, applications, document collaboration, and AI-powered, agentic end user computing experiences?
Amazon Web Services is looking for Solutions Architects to help establish AWS Agentic WorkSpaces (formerly known as Amazon End User Computing) as the market leader in end user computing. We are especially seeking SAs with a high level of AI fluency who are excited to help customers adopt the next generation of our portfolio, including Workspaces for Builders and Workspaces for Agents. We built AWS Agentic WorkSpaces services to give customers the agility to respond to the changing needs of their workforce. Customers can scale up or scale down on-demand, providing users with the resources they need, all without deploying and operating infrastructure.
This is a highly technical position for someone who can dive deep, build complex, AWS-optimized architectures, and help customers accelerate their adoption of AWS services and AI-powered, agentic workflows. Your broad responsibilities include owning the technical engagement and ultimate success around specific implementation projects. You should be as comfortable discussing complex technical details with a room full of engineers as you are briefing an executive audience. In addition, you will engage with other AWS solutions architects, partner and professional services organizations to drive large and highly complex sales opportunities to closure.
The AWS Agentic WorkSpaces SA team is creating and migrating large scale and compelling workloads on AWS. You will be collaborating with and influencing technical teams requiring AWS expertise and in so doing will be making a significant impact on Amazon’s customers. Enjoy working with enterprise customers. You will have a passion for educating, training, designing, and building cloud and AI-enabled solutions for a diverse and challenging set of enterprise customers.
Key job responsibilities
- Work with customers to deploy Amazon Agentic WorkSpaces — Personal, Applications and Core — as well as Workspaces for Builders and Workspaces for Agents.
- Guide customers on designing and operating AI-powered, agentic end user computing experiences, helping them apply AI fluency to real-world builder and agent workflows.
- Educate customers on the value proposition of AWS, and participate in deep architectural discussions to ensure solutions are designed for successful deployment in the cloud.
- Conduct one-to-few and one-to-many training sessions to transfer knowledge to customers considering or already using AWS.
- Capture and share best-practice knowledge amongst the AWS solutions architect community.
- Author or otherwise contribute to AWS customer-facing publications such as whitepapers, blogs, and technical guides.
- Build deep relationships with senior technical individuals within customers to enable them to be cloud advocates.
- Act as a technical liaison between customers, partners, service engineering teams and support.

Amazon runs the largest online store in the United States and rents cloud computing to businesses and governments through Amazon Web Services. AWS pioneered renting computing power over the internet, and Amazon built its own delivery network to get orders to customers quickly. Shoppers buy from Amazon and from independent sellers on its store, and Prime members pay a subscription for fast free shipping, streaming video and music, and other perks. AWS rents out computing power, storage, databases, and AI tools so companies can run software without owning servers, and Amazon also makes Kindle e-readers and Echo speakers with the Alexa assistant. Jeff Bezos founded Amazon in 1994, and it is based in Seattle, Washington.
