Solutions Architect

Amazon is looking for experienced and motivated technologists with a unique balance of technical depth and strong interpersonal skills to launch and grow new platform services while partnering with some of the most recognisable brands across the globe. Solutions Architects are self–motivated individuals with a proven track record of delivering results in software/technology sales or consulting. We want individuals who demonstrate ability to think strategically about business, create technical definitions around customer objectives in complex situations, develop solution strategies, motivate and mobilise resources, and deliver results.

Ideally, you’re someone who can write code with the best of them, but you also want to help guide the broader industry towards a technology you believe in. You have immediate credibility with technologists and developers at all levels, from students to CIOs. You love to share your passion with others and exhibit good judgement in selecting strategic opportunities to do so. You don’t just want to be part of an industry movement; you want to be leading it. If this sounds like you, we’d love to speak to you.

As a Solutions Architect at Amazon, you will partner with customers, account managers, business development, engineering, and product teams to craft scalable, flexible and resilient architectures that address customer business problems and accelerate the adoption of our new services. In collaboration with sales, you will drive revenue growth across a broad set of customers. As a trusted customer advocate, the Solutions Architect will help organisations to understand best practices around platform integration.

Our Solutions Architects are passionate about enabling innovation through continuous deployment in DevOps with technologies like Chef and Puppet, building web & mobile scale-out applications using memcache or Redis, RDBMS (MySQL, AWS Aurora, Oracle, SQL Server, and Postgres) and NoSQL (Amazon DynamoDB, MongoDB, and Cassandra) data stores, building IoT use cases, and implementing big data analytics w/ technologies like Hadoop, Amazon EMR, Amazon RedShift, and Amazon Kinesis.
