    Job Description

    What if your architecture became the industry blueprint for agentic AI? As a Principal SA embedded with a Fortune 500 technology leader, you"ll architect, design, and build multi-agent systems at massive scale while advising C-Suite executives on AI transformation.

    The Opportunity

    You"ll serve as a trusted technical advisor to a technology company that is actively reshaping their industry using AI. You will be a technical counterpart to customer executives who speak fluent AI and expect their AWS Solutions Architect to match that depth and push the conversation further.

    The customer is:

    • Deploying specialized AI agents across every stage of the traveler journey - from inspiration to booking to in-trip support
    • Pioneering a Business-to-Agent (B2A) marketing paradigm - treating AI agents as a first-class audience
    • Building MCP-based infrastructure that opens services to third-party AI agents at massive scale
    • Leveraging frontier foundation models for real-time inference, fine-tuning, and agentic orchestration

    What Makes This Role Different

    This role:

    • Shapes the technical agenda for the account and operates at the C-Suite level
    • Builds net-new architectures that become the reference
    • Focuses on business outcomes
    • Influences company-wide AI strategy
    • Span GenAI, ML platforms, agentic systems, data, and infrastructure

    Key job responsibilities

    • Build - create prototypes, reference implementations, and production-ready architectures that prove the value of new AI capabilities at scale
    • Serve as the trusted technical voice - shaping the industry-level conversation on AI
    • Access the full power of AWS - engage specialist teams, applied science resources, and product groups to deliver outcomes that no single team could achieve alone
    • Pioneer new patterns - the solutions you build define how the industry approaches agentic AI, model orchestration, and intelligent automation
    • Mentor the next generation - develop Solutions Architects who can operate at this altitude and complexity

    A day in the life

    This is a builder role. You will:

    • Architect agentic AI systems - design multi-agent orchestration frameworks, model fine-tuning pipelines, and real-time inference platforms that serve hundreds of millions of users
    • Prototype and prove - build working POCs that demonstrate the art of the possible, turning executive vision into deployable architectures in days, not quarters
    • Shape AI product strategy - sit in the room where roadmaps are set, influencing not just how but what gets built, both at the customer and within AWS
    • Drive the technical relationship - own the end-to-end technical strategy for the customer

    About the team

    This role is based in Strategic Accounts Atlas District - a team of limitless builders. The team is at the epicenter of AI innovation. The Atlas District includes the largest AI innovators and creators of foundation models. You"ll be a peer to the teams building the foundation models your customer runs at scale.

    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
    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.
