Key job responsibilities
As a Solutions Architect III, you will:

Own Complex Solution End-to-End

Lead the design, validation, and full lifecycle implementation of mission-critical customer solutions. Merge deep technical expertise with business strategy to deliver scalable, secure, and innovative architectures that solve high-impact problems.

Lead Technical Strategy & Advocacy

Drive technical discussions with customer teams, diving into design choices, AWS best practices, and real-world use cases. Challenge assumptions, validate architectures, and ensure solutions align with both technical excellence and business outcomes.

Build Scalable Knowledge Assets

Create reusable, adoption-ready technical content—including sample code, blogs, workshops, and presentations—that empowers teams to implement best practices efficiently and consistently.

Forge Consensus Across Stakeholders

Harmonize diverse perspectives by articulating clear technical and strategic visions. Resolve conflicts, align cross-functional teams, and drive unified execution of complex initiatives.

Accelerate Adoption Through Reuse

Identify opportunities to modularize solutions and leverage existing assets, reducing time-to-market and delivering greater value to the broader customer community.

A day in the life
Your day begins with internal stakeholder meetings to align on customer priorities before joining customer calls to discuss technical architecture and solution options. You'll spend time experimenting with new services to solve specific customer challenges, then document your findings. Afternoons might include solutioning sessions where you craft architectures that address complex media workloads, followed by building proof-of-concepts to demonstrate feasibility. You'll close your day evangelizing best practices to both internal teams and customers.

We pioneered cloud computing and never stopped innovating — that’s why customers from the most successful startups to Global 500 companies trust our robust suite of products and services to power their businesses.

Inclusive Team Culture
Here at AWS, it’s in our nature to learn and be curious. Our employee-led affinity groups foster a culture of inclusion that empower us to be proud of our differences.
