Are you a developer who has hands-on experience with building cloud-native applications? Would you like to work with our customers to help them architect, develop and re-engineer applications to fully leverage the cloud?

Do you like to work on a variety of cutting edge, business-critical projects at the forefront of development and technology adoption?

In order for applications to be fully optimized, they need to be architected to take advantage of the global scale, elasticity, automation and high availability features of the cloud. On the AWS platform, services such as API Gateway, Lambda, ECS, SQS, Kinesis, AI and others provide opportunities to design and build cloud-ready applications.

AWS is looking for talented hands-on technical architects and senior developers to help accelerate our growing Professional Services business. This is an excellent opportunity to join Amazon´s world-class technical teams, working with some of the best and brightest engineers while also developing your skills at one of the most innovative and progressive technology companies. Here in Professional Services, we engage in a wide variety of business-critical, high-profile projects for customers and partners and help them better leverage the ever-evolving platform.

Our team collaborates across the entire organization to bring access to product and service teams, to get the right solution delivered and drive feature innovation based upon customer needs.

We are looking for hands-on architects and developers who will:

- Work as a technical leader alongside customer business, development and AWS teams

- Lead technical and design discussions with IT executives to help enterprises speed their adoption of new technologies and practices

- Architect and building highly scalable, cloud-native applications on the platform using core developer services like API Gateway, Lambda, SQS, DynamoDB and ECS/EKS.

- Leverage new technology paradigms (e.g. serverless, containers, microservices)

- Migrate monolithic applications to microservices architectures

- Advise on implementing best practices

- Influence by sharing your development expertise

- Represent the voice for developers internally and influence our Professional Services offerings and product strategy for developers by working with platform engineering, Business Development and other cross-functional teams

Our Consultants work with customers locally, regionally and potentially domestically. As such, Consultants must have the ability to travel to client locations to deliver professional services as needed.
