Senior Solutions Architect, AGS-EMEA-Field-Europe North PS

DESCRIPTION

We are looking for a skilled, self-motivated technical leader to join a team of supportive, experienced professionals. As a Solutions Architect in the Public Sector team, you get to impact the lives of millions of citizens and help a variety of different customers - all the way from digital-native EdTechs and government-linked companies to security-focused government agencies. Overall, the customers we work with include government agencies, state-owned companies, educational institutions, healthcare and non-profit organisations. Our Public Sector teams help customers build a deeper understanding of hyper-scale cloud technology and application architectures, and they have the consultative skills required to drive successful outcomes. As an AWS Solutions Architect, you will have ownership of the technical relationship with customers, making recommendations on security, cost, performance, reliability, operational efficiency and best-practice architectures. We expect you to think and act like an owner, paving the way for a successful customer journey. Internally, you will be an advocate acting on behalf of the customer to help drive continual improvements to the AWS platform, sharing their needs and wants to inform the roadmap of AWS features and services. You will also help shape the future of the Solutions Architecture organization by helping to hire, coach and mentor others. In this role, your creativity will link technology to tangible solutions, with the opportunity to implement or document cloud-native reference architectures with the AWS Solutions Architect community. You will participate in the creation and sharing of recommended practices, technical content and new reference architectures (e.g. white papers, code samples, blog posts) and evangelize and educate about AWS technology (e.g. through workshops, user groups, meetups, public speaking, online videos or conferences). If you can educate AWS customers about the art of the possible, while investigating the impossible, come build the future with us. AWS Sales, Marketing, and Global Services (SMGS) is responsible for driving revenue, adoption, and growth from the largest and fastest growing small- and mid-market accounts to enterprise-level customers including public sector. The AWS Global Support team interacts with leading companies and believes that world-class support is critical to customer success.
