Key job responsibilities
Key job responsibilities
As a Senior Solutions Architect, you will own the technical relationship with enterprise customers end-to-end. This means:
Engaging customers to understand their business drivers for cloud adoption, assess their existing on-premises or multi-cloud landscape, and architect a credible path to AWS
Building the technical case for AWS: total cost of ownership analyses, migration strategies, and proof-of-value engagements that deliver value.
Building hands-on: prototypes, proofs of concept, migration runbooks, landing zone blueprints, and production-ready reference architectures. You lead by doing, not just advising.
Helping customers envision and build with generative AI and machine learning — often as the catalyst that makes AWS the platform of choice by demonstrating what's uniquely possible with AWS AI/ML services.
Partnering closely with Account Managers and Business Development to shape the go-to-market strategy for accounts — you are the technical credibility that converts pipeline into adoption.
Acting as the customer's technical advocate inside AWS — translating field insights from customers into clear, prioritized feedback that shapes the roadmap for AWS services and features.
Creating and sharing technical content that scales your impact: workshops, immersion days, blog posts, code samples, reference architectures, and public talks at meetups, user groups, and conferences.
You make the team stronger by mentoring fellow Solutions Architects — sharing what you know and helping others grow.
A day in the life
No two days look the same. You might spend the morning in a technical workshop with a financial services customer exploring whether to lift-and-shift their core banking platform or re-architect on AWS, then pivot to a hands-on proof of concept helping a retail customer build on Amazon Bedrock. In the afternoon you might build a landing zone design for a customer that just signed their Enterprise Agreement, draft a migration playbook for a hospitality company, or join a call with an AWS service team to advocate for a feature that would unblock a key deal. You balance depth with breadth, strategic thinking with hands-on execution, and the patience required to build trust with the urgency of a team that moves fast.
