Act as a thought leader in the wider community, playing a key role in educating, sharing best practices, presenting at events, writing white papers, blogs, and running workshops.
Share the voice of the customer to influence the roadmap of new features and services for the AWS platform. Proactively work within the organization to influence the evolution of the platform.

On a daily basis you will work alongside people who are leading the way in designing cloud bases architecture. We are the trusted advisor to our customers, so challenge our customers to think differently, learn more build elegant, transformative solutions!
