The AWS Prototyping & Cloud Engineering (PACE) team is looking for builders with a passion for architecting solutions that accelerate our customers' ability to innovate on AWS. PACE builds with customers, experimenting quickly with potential concepts that serve as the basis for new products or services running on the AWS cloud. In the best cases, the customer will successfully take the prototype to production. In all cases, our customers will experience what’s possible on AWS and gain the confidence to create a culture of innovation in their own organization.
Your role as a prototyping architect involves working with customers to develop prototypes that are foundational to production solutions. Prototyping architects are typically full stack developers who are comfortable operating with multiple languages and frameworks to develop prototypes in emerging technology areas such as AI/ML, compute at the edge, robotics, and spatial computing. You will use a variety of AWS services to rapidly develop the prototypes, leveraging modern application architectural principles. You will gain knowledge in emerging technology and business trends, allowing you to share your insights through publicly shared design patterns, blogs, white papers, and reusable assets (i.e. reusable packaged code).
