Job Information
Amazon Solutions Architect, Healthcare Startups in Boston, Massachusetts
Description
Trusted by more startups around the world, AWS makes the power of cloud computing accessible for all by giving founders everywhere access to the same technology that powers the world’s largest companies. With nearly 20 years of experience gained from supporting hundreds of thousands of startups that have come before, we help founders prove that their world-changing ideas are possible, at any stage of growth or level of funding. This is why more startups, and over 80% of unicorns, build on AWS.
We are looking for technical builders who love the idea of working with early stage startups to help them as they grow. In this role, you’ll work directly with a variety of interesting customers and help them make the best (and sometimes the most pragmatic) technical decisions along the way. You’ll have a chance to build enduring relationships with these companies and establish yourself as a trusted advisor.
Key job responsibilities
This Solutions Architecture role is part of a team working exclusively with established startups looking to build net new workloads on AWS and/or migrate established production workloads onto AWS. Thus while prior experience on AWS is a plus, prior experience with on-premise builds or architecting on other platforms is also a valuble skillset for this role.
As well as spending time working directly with customers, you’ll also get plenty of time to “sharpen the saw” and keep your skills fresh. We have more than 175 services across a range of different categories and it’s important that we can help startups take advantages of the right ones. You’ll also play an important role as an advocate with our product teams to make sure we are building the right products and features for the startups you work with. And for the customers you don’t get to work with on a 1:1 basis you’ll share knowledge more broadly by working on technical content and presenting at events.
A day in the life
The startup organization at AWS comprises of experts that are passionate about startups. They engage with founders, venture capitalists, angel investors and work with technical, product and go-to-market teams at some of the most exciting companies on the planet.
The AWS Startup Solutions Architecture team is dedicated to working with these early stage startup companies as they build their businesses. We’re here to make sure that they can deploy the best, most scalable, and most secure architectures possible – and that they spend as little time and money as possible doing so.
