Are you passionate about pioneering the future of generative AI and eager to help the world's largest and most complex financial institutions solve real-world challenges using AI solutions? The ASPI - Global Financial Services (GFS) team seeks an experienced technologist who possess a unique balance of technical depth and strong interpersonal skills. As a trusted customer advocate and Generative AI Solutions Architect, you'll partner with a focused portfolio of strategic banking, insurance, payments, and capital markets customers across North America to craft highly scalable AI architectures that address critical business problems and accelerate the adoption of AWS's comprehensive AI stack. This is not a high-volume role. You'll go deep, not wide — building lasting technical relationships with a small number of the most significant financial services organizations in North America. You'll join a specialized team of Solutions Architects dedicated exclusively to generative AI, working alongside account managers and account Solutions Architects to drive AI innovation across these strategic accounts. Our team's focused expertise has made us a valuable resource for customers seeking guidance on advanced AI solutions. You'll help organizations understand best practices and effectively implement generative AI capabilities within their existing cloud infrastructure — while navigating the stringent security, compliance, data sovereignty, and regulatory requirements unique to the financial services industry. In this role, you will shape and execute strategies to build mind share and broad use of AWS's AI services within financial services customers. The ability to connect AI technology with measurable business value is critical, as you'll develop compelling demos and proof-of-concepts that demonstrate how generative AI can revolutionize business operations through intelligent automation and advanced reasoning capabilities. You'll design architectures that enable AI systems to process complex queries, interact with enterprise data sources, and efficiently complete multistep tasks with agentic AI — from fraud detection and risk modeling to regulatory reporting, customer service automation, and personalized financial insights.
