Are you an infrastructure/cloud operations expert who has experience with implementing enterprise-level operational systems and processes for the AWS Cloud? Would you like to work with our customers to help them understand, plan and implement best practices around managing and operating their AWS cloud environment? Would you like a career that gives you opportunities to help customers and partners use cloud computing to do big new things faster and at lower cost?

Would you like a career path that enables you to progress with the rapid adoption of cloud computing?

At AWS, we are hiring the best hands-on infrastructure/cloud operations experts, who can assist our clients and partners in the integration of new, or existing, operational toolsets with the AWS platform to take advantage of the global scale, elasticity, automation and high-availability features of the AWS cloud. Our consultants will collaborate with partner and client teams to deliver proof-of-concept projects, re-usable artifacts, reference architectures, and lead implementation projects. These professional services engagements will focus on key customer solutions in large enterprises, assisting in enabling their integration with existing enterprise operational systems and processes.

Responsibilities include: As Senior Consultant you will lead complex projects with autonomy and discretion, often involving multiple Amazon and customer teams.

You will work with customers and partners, leading them through planning, prioritization and delivery of complex transformation initiatives, while collaborating with relevant Sales and Service Teams. You will design and deliver solutions that solve for new levels of complexity, scale and performance, and in turn, enable breakthrough innovations. You will create and apply frameworks, methods, best practices and artifacts that deliver prescriptive guidance to customers, and publish and present them in large forums and across various media platforms. You will guide customers’ technical architecture and investments, maximizing alignment with the AWS platform, and ease of adoption as new services and products become available.

You will help customers define target business outcomes and related work streams, and lead the subsequent projects and initiatives to consistently exceed these goals.

As an Amazonian leader you will demonstrate the Amazon Leadership Principles, coaching and mentoring others on best practices, performance and career development.

Amazon aims to be the most customer centric company on earth. Amazon Web Services (AWS) provides a highly reliable, scalable, low-cost infrastructure platform in the cloud that powers critical applications for hundreds of thousands of businesses in 190 countries around the world.
