Description

Solutions Architects at Amazon Web Services (AWS) build technical relationships with customers of all sizes and operate as their trusted advisor. In this specific role, you will work with AWS customers and AWS Healthcare and Life Sciences (HCLS) domain experts to create the architectures for solutions to HCLS industry challenges in the Clinical space. You will not only design and build these solutions, but continue to refine and scale them by working closely with AWS Professional Services, AWS Partners, and customers. This role requires hands-on experience in application integration design, solid knowledge of business software application design stemming from domain-driven design, and micro-services and component-based architectures. This knowledge needs to be paired with HCLS domain expertise in areas such as clinical workflows, clinical trials, and the development and deployment of industry solutions in the life sciences value chain. Candidates for this role need experience with applications, use cases, user experiences, and challenges in the HCLS industry gained by working in architect or developer roles within the domain. Candidates should have insights on how cloud-based software solutions are built in a life sciences context, including but not limited to the handling of sensitive data, process observability, and audit readiness.

You will also participate in the creation and sharing of best practices, technical content and new reference architectures (e.g. white papers, code samples, blog posts) and evangelize and educate about AWS technology and HCLS industry trends (e.g. through workshops, user groups, meetups, public speaking, online videos or conferences). This role will include up to 30% travel.

AWS values diverse experiences. Even if you do not meet all of the qualifications and skills listed in the job description, we encourage candidates to apply. If your career is just starting, hasn’t followed a traditional path, or includes alternative experiences, don’t let it stop you from applying.
