Prototyping Solutions Architect, Global Financial Services
at Amazon ⋅ US, NC, Charlotte
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is looking for experienced and motivated technologists who possess a unique balance of technical depth and excellent interpersonal skills to join the Financial Services Solutions Architecture team. This team is a group of hands-on developers supporting AWS customers to build the first solution adapted to their specific use cases and devices. This role is for a Full-Stack Prototyping Solutions Architect with a strong focus on containerized cloud native or serverless architectures, leveraging generative AI/ML technologies in crafting solutions, and the ability to create delightful user interfaces and user experiences for our customers.
At AWS, we have a credo of “Work hard. Have fun. Make history”. In this role, you will love what you do, and instinctively know how to make work fun. You will be dynamic and creative, and willing to take on any challenge and make a big impact. You will partner with customers that want to modernize existing or build new full-stack applications, leveraging Cloud Native and Serverless architectures to provide highly scalable, cost-effective, flexible and resilient solutions. You will help customers understand Cloud development best practices on AWS and how to best integrate them with their client applications. You will have the opportunity to help shape and execute a strategy to build mindshare and broad use of AWS with customers ranging from start-ups to established enterprise customers.
The successful candidate will possess a significant hands-on experience in application development in the Cloud with Serverless and Managed services (preferably with AWS services like AWS Lambda, Elastic Load Balancers, Amazon EC2/ECS/EKS, Amazon Fargate, Amazon API Gateway, Amazon Cognito, Amazon SageMaker, Amazon Bedrock etc.) and will be capable of developing with customers client applications exposing different types of user interfaces and experiences (e.g Web Front-Ends, Mobile Applications or Alexa Skills).
As part of an agile development team, you will support AWS customers to develop prototypes specific to their products and services. You will enjoy keeping your existing technical skills honed and developing new ones so that you can make substantial contributions to in-depth architecture discussions. You will lead efforts to capture and share best-practice knowledge with the AWS solutions architect community. You will also gain the opportunity to learn from, collaborate with, and educate some of the brightest technical minds in the industry today across the breadth of enterprise architecture.
So if you are someone who innovates, likes solving hard problems, loves programming and working on cutting edge technology, we would love to have you on the team!
