We equip diverse builders of today and tomorrow with the knowledge they need to leverage the power of the AWS Cloud. Join our dynamic, fast-growing engineering team and help us empower our customers to build cloud skills.
AWS Training and Certification’s mission is to help close the cloud skills gap. As the demand for Amazon Web Services grows, so does the need for skilled cloud talent.

To meet this demand, AWS Training and Certification has launched a series of global education programs, including AWS Educate, AWS re/Start, AWS Academy, AWS Spark, and AWS GetIT.

We are looking for someone that is a self-starter, someone that approaches complex business questions with data and curiosity, and a person that dives below the surface to identify the root cause and "so what" rather than just superficial trends. At AWS Education Programs you will also get an opportunity to work with a wide range of AWS services that support our learning platforms.
