As a Solutions Architect at AWS, you'll build technical relationships with customers of all sizes and operate as their trusted advisor, ensuring they get the most out of the cloud at every stage of their journey.

This role is within the EMEA Central and Eastern Europe organization.

Key job responsibilities:
You'll manage the overall technical relationship between AWS and our customers, making recommendations on security, cost, performance, reliability, and operational efficiency to accelerate their challenging projects. Internally, you will be the voice of the customer, sharing their needs and wants to inform the roadmap of AWS features. In this role, your creativity will link technology to tangible solutions, with the opportunity to define or invent cloud-native reference architectures for a variety of use cases. You will 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 industry trends (e.g., through workshops, user groups, meetups, public speaking, online videos, or conferences). If you can educate AWS customers about the art of the possible, while challenging the impossible, come build the future with us.
