Senior Specialist Solutions Architect, Containers, Modernization

Containers now run some of the most demanding systems on AWS, from real-time payment processing to large-scale AI inference. As more companies move production workloads onto Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS), Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS), AWS Fargate, and Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR), they face harder questions about scaling, cost, and security. They need architects who go deep.

In this role you will help organizations worldwide answer those questions, and you will shape the container services they depend on.
