DESCRIPTION
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is seeking a Solutions Architect to join our thriving technical community and growing business in Austria as part of the Austrian Commercial Team at our Vienna office. As a member of our supportive team, you'll work to bring cloud computing technologies to large enterprise customers, including businesses in manufacturing, media, betting & gaming, retail and other verticals.
Key job responsibilities
In your role as an AWS Solutions Architect, you'll take ownership of the technical relationship with customers, providing expert recommendations on solution design, migration strategies, security, and best-practice architectures. Your influence will extend beyond customer interactions, as you'll also act as an internal advocate, driving continuous improvements to the AWS platform based on customer needs and feedback. You'll contribute to the AWS knowledge base by creating and sharing best practices, technical content, and new reference architectures. Additionally, you'll play a crucial role in educating and evangelizing about AWS technology through various channels, helping to expand our reach and influence in the industry.
You should bring a builder's mindset and startup mentality, with the ability to move fast, experiment, and drive innovation, particularly in emerging technologies like Generative AI and Agentic AI. Above all, we're looking for individuals with a passion for technology and a commitment to continuous learning in this rapidly evolving industry.
