Solutions Architect, Engineering, Construction, Real Estate, and Transportation

About the Role

Join the AWS Enterprise team as a Solutions Architect (SA) for Engineering, Construction, Real Estate, and Transportation (ECRT) customers. You will define and prove technical direction for major industrial operators by combining architectural reasoning and strategic advisory with hands-on validation in customer environments. This role requires building working prototypes, proof-of-concepts, and AI-driven solutions to accelerate customer decisions and bridge the gap between architectural recommendations and validated proof.

Responsibilities

• Technical Proof & Validation:
  • Build working prototypes in customer non-production sandbox environments using AI-augmented development tools (Kiro, Claude Code, Bedrock) to validate architectural recommendations.
  • Implement proof-of-concepts (PoCs) for digital twins, fleet IoT, predictive maintenance, and agentic AI to prove architectural approaches.
  • Deploy infrastructure using IaC (CDK, Terraform) in customer sandboxes, demonstrating scalability and security patterns.
  • Apply GenAI and agentic systems (multi-agent orchestration, RAG pipelines, foundation model integration) to solve ECRT customer problems.
• Architectural Reasoning & Decision Ownership:
  • Frame and resolve technical trade-offs involving security, cost, operational burden, time-to-market, and industry compliance.
  • Make cross-cutting architectural decisions to ensure coherence across systems, teams, and workstreams.
  • Diagnose architectural issues such as resilience gaps, failover weaknesses, scaling bottlenecks, and security vulnerabilities specific to industrial IoT and construction technology.
  • Stay engaged through implementation to ensure the architecture aligns with the customer’s environment.
• Strategic Advisory & Customer Influence:
  • Own the end-to-end technical strategy for assigned ECRT customers, maintaining a current view of their technical landscape, industry context, and competitive dynamics.
  • Partner with the sales team to formulate and execute a sales strategy to exceed revenue objectives through AWS adoption.
  • Influence senior leaders’ technology direction by connecting short-term AI and cloud decisions to long-term business outcomes.
  • Challenge customer direction when evidence indicates a better path to avoid costly rework.
• Revenue & Opportunity Acceleration:
  • Accelerate customer adoption by removing ambiguity through validated proof points.
  • Identify new opportunities during customer engagements.
  • Increase service adoption through tangible multi-service integration demos.
• Customer Relationship & Communication:
  • Present to diverse audiences, including executives, IT management, and developers.
  • Communicate effectively across internal and external organizations.
  • Moderate tone and technical depth based on the audience.

Qualifications

• 4+ years of experience in specific technology domains (e.g., software development, cloud computing, systems engineering, infrastructure, security, networking, data & analytics).
• 2+ years of design, implementation, or consulting experience in applications and infrastructures.
• 5+ years of IT development or implementation/consulting experience in the software or Internet industries.

Preferred Qualifications

• Knowledge of cloud architecture.
• Experience in technology/software sales, pre-sales, or consulting.
• Experience working with Data & AI technologies, including AI/ML, GenAI, Analytics, Database, and/or Storage.
