    Job Description

    Shape what comes next | Discover careers in Tech

    At Amazon, our tech isn"t just a tool, it"s your playground. Our engineers work on scalable systems, cloud services, and customer-facing products that operate at global scale. This is an environment where you learn by building. Whether you"re creating cloud-native solutions, optimizing machine learning models, or building products that drive experiences for millions of customers around the globe, your work reaches the world, fast. You"ll take ownership early, collaborate across teams and disciplines, and grow your skills as you tackle new problems. There"s no single path forward here, with a chance to explore different directions and shape your journey as you go. This is where ambition meets opportunity and, where the impact of what you build helps define what comes next, for customers and for you.

    Do you want to help us build new things and evangelize use of AWS with customers? As an Associate Solutions Architect you will partner across AWS to help customers craft highly scalable, flexible and resilient cloud architectures that address customer business problems. As a trusted customer advocate, you will help organizations understand best practices around cloud-based solutions, and how to migrate existing workloads to the cloud. You will have the opportunity to help customers use AWS within their organizations ranging from new start-ups to large enterprise customers.

    This position is part of an accelerated career development program for those who want to advance both their technical and business skills. This is a unique opportunity for driven, self-starters to play a key role in a fast-growing business, and to deliver significant value to AWS customers of all sizes from nimble startups to global brands. The program will provide you with training and work experience that aligns in the field of technical training. This unique program consists of mentoring by subject matter experts, project-based learning curriculum and experiential learning assignments.

    If this sounds exciting to you - come build the future with us!

    Program Overview:

    This is a structured, cohort-based accelerated development program designed for early career Solutions Architects. You"ll join a cohort of peers at one of our hub locations in Arlington VA, Austin TX, or Seattle WA, building a professional network from Day 1.

    You"ll be embedded in a supportive team with a dedicated mentor, an onboarding buddy, and a manager who guides your technical and professional growth. You"ll follow a structured learning journey that develops deep expertise in cloud architecture, AI/ML, and customer-facing solution design. Within weeks, you"ll begin working directly with AWS customers - from startups to large enterprises - helping them architect cloud solutions that solve real business problems.

    Start Date Details:

    This is a cohort-based program where everyone is required to start on the same day. Start dates are tentatively set to occur January 25, 2027.

    Key job responsibilities

    • Create solutions that address customer business problems and accelerate the adoption of AWS services
    • Interface with customer stakeholders, including developers and team leads
    • Drive effective feedback gathering from customers, distill and translate feedback into clear business and technical requirements for product and engineering teams

    A day in the life

    No two days look exactly the same, and that"s what makes this role exciting. Your morning might start with a team stand-up where you share wins and learning moments with your cohort and mentor, followed by a hands-on lab building a serverless architecture or working with an AI model on Amazon Bedrock. By midday, you could be on a customer call helping a CTO plan a cloud migration - whiteboarding an architecture, recommending services, and walking them through a proof-of-concept, with your mentor there to support you. In the afternoon, you might attend a technical session led by a senior SA on emerging technology, then spend time working toward your next AWS certification. Later, you"ll collaborate with your cohort on a group project - building a customer-facing demo, writing a technical blog post, or preparing for your next development milestone. You"ll also have opportunities to participate in leadership development programming and community events that go beyond your core technical work.

    About the team

    We are intentional about building pathways for early career talent, creating opportunities for people who bring fresh perspectives to cloud technology. This isn"t a "sink or swim" program - you"ll have a dedicated mentor who coaches you throughout the program, an onboarding buddy to help you navigate Amazon culture, and a manager focused on your development. You"ll join a tight-knit cohort culture with regular team activities, peer learning, and social events - our hubs offer collaborative workspaces where you"re surrounded by peers and leaders who want to see you succeed. You"ll work across industries, customer sizes, and technology domains, giving you a breadth of experience that accelerates your career faster than a traditional single-team placement.

    About Company

    At Amazon, we don’t wait for the next big idea to present itself. We envision the shape of impossible things and then we boldly make them reality. So far, this mindset has helped us achieve some incredible things. Let’s build new systems, challenge the status quo, and design the world we want to live in. We believe the work you do here will be the best work of your life.

    Wherever you are in your career exploration, Amazon likely has an opportunity for you. Our research scientists and engineers shape the future of natural language understanding with Alexa. Fulfillment center associates around the globe send customer orders from our warehouses to doorsteps. Product managers set feature requirements, strategy, and marketing messages for brand new customer experiences. And as we grow, we’ll add jobs that haven’t been invented yet.

    It’s Always Day 1
    At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

    Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
