Work in Washington Veterans Jobs

Description

Are you passionate about cloud computing with a special focus on storage? Do you have a unique combination of deep technical knowledge, business acumen and strong interpersonal skills? Do you like helping organizational leaders think through how to secure services in the AWS Cloud? Amazon Web Services (AWS) is looking for an experienced Partner Solutions Architect who will be a Subject Matter Expert (SME) focused on storage and will work closely with the engineering, business development, and technical field teams to drive the enablement and adoption of AWS Services with a security first approach through our Partners.

You, as the right candidate, are as comfortable white boarding complex software architectures with a roomful of engineers as you are briefing an executive audience. You will get the opportunity to work with a wide array of AWS Partners, from well-established tech giants to innovative startups that were born in the cloud. You will work closely with a few select partners to dive deeper on their product roadmap. You will also have the opportunity to develop white papers, blogs, reference architectures, and presentations to enable partners and customers to develop the internal security and compliance expertise needed to deliver results. This role will work closely with our Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) and AWS service teams to present you with the opportunity to establish yourself as a trusted advisor.

Work/Life Balance

Our team also puts a high value on work-life balance. Striking a healthy balance between your personal and professional life is crucial to your happiness and success here, which is why we aren’t focused on how many hours you spend at work or online. Instead, we’re happy to offer a flexible schedule so you can have a more productive and well-balanced life—both in and outside of work.
