DESCRIPTION

Partner Solutions Architects work hand in hand with AWS partners to help them build long-term, profitable businesses around the AWS platform. They are at the crossroads of business and technology and engage with partners in helping them build up their AWS practice by working on a long-term vision and joint value proposition as well as tactical opportunity support for customer engagements.

They work to understand what value proposition the partner wants to develop and own the technical strategy and enablement plan to get them to where they can effectively market, sell, deliver and operate such solutions for our joint customers.
