This role is exclusively open to candidates holding a Certificado de Discapacidad issued by the Administration in Spain, pursuant to Royal Decree 1/2013, Nov 29, approving the Spanish PwD Act.
Solutions Architects collaborate closely with AWS customers to help them maximize their use of the Cloud. They bridge the gap between business and technology, engaging with organizations at all stages of cloud adoption. These professionals create and present technical content, sharing best practices.
Solutions Architects are responsible for the overall technical relationship between customers and AWS, making recommendations on security, cost, performance, reliability, and operational efficiency. They work to understand customer needs and provide prescriptive guidance on creating solutions using AWS technology. Solutions Architects lead activities such as architecture reviews, white-boarding sessions, demos, and technical workshops. They collaborate with other teams like account management, professional services, support, product teams, and the AWS partner ecosystem.
In this position, you will have the opportunity to apply your creativity, linking technology to tangible solutions and educating AWS customers about the possibilities. You will implement cloud-native reference architectures for various use cases. The Solutions Architecture team comprises diverse technologists from different backgrounds. A practical knowledge of the AWS platform is desirable but not necessary if you possess a sound technical foundation and a willingness to learn.
You will receive support to grow your expertise in industry and technology areas of interest. Every day, you will learn something new from your customers, peers, and personal experiments.
At Amazon, we encourage and reward actions that prioritize long-term customer success. We value your passion for discovering, inventing, simplifying, and building on behalf of customers.
