Are you passionate about startups? Are you interested in modern technologies and making a positive difference? We are looking for technical builders who love the idea of working with startups to help them as they grow. Come join us! Startups are the enterprises of the future. These young companies are founded by ambitious people who have a desire to build something meaningful, many times challenging the status quo, incumbents, or addressing underserved customers. They usually operate in an environment of scarcity: whether that’s time, capital, engineering resources, or experience. This is where you come in. The AWS Startup Solutions Architecture team is dedicated to working with startup companies as they build their businesses. We’re here to help them deploy scalable, secure, reliable, performant, sustainable and efficient architectures – and do that spending as little time and money as possible. In this role, you’ll work directly with a variety of interesting customers in various industries which could include AI/ML, HCLS, FinTech, ClimateTech, HCLS and others, 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, their founders, and establish yourself as a trusted advisor. As well as spending time working directly with customers, you’ll also get time to “sharpen the saw” and keep your skills fresh. We have more than 200 services across a range of different categories and it’s important that we can help startups take advantages of the right ones. You will act as a customer advocate with our product teams to make sure we are building the right products and features for the startups you work with. In addition, this role will provide plenty of opportunities to share your knowledge more broadly by working on technical content and presenting at events.
