Do you like helping government agencies solve mission-critical problems with innovative cloud solutions? Would you like to shape how public health and human services organizations use the cloud to improve outcomes for the people they serve? Do you have the domain expertise to be a trusted technical advisor, and the consultative and leadership skills to define business strategy alongside a Business Development Manager?

Amazon Web Services is looking for a Senior Solutions Architect to accelerate our Health & Human Services Public Health vertical business within the State & Local Government (SLG) practice, part of the World Wide Public Sector (WWPS).

SLG vertical Solutions Architects (SAs) are technologists with deep domain-specific expertise, able to address advanced concepts and feature designs. As part of the AWS sales organization, SAs work with customers who have complex challenges that require expert-level knowledge to solve. SAs craft scalable, flexible, and resilient technical architectures that address those challenges. In Health & Human Services and Public Health, this might involve designing an interoperable data platform for population health, or standing up secure, compliant cloud environments for disease surveillance and emergency response.

Vertical SAs play a critical role in capturing customer feedback, advocating for roadmap enhancements, and anticipating customer requirements as they work backwards from their needs. As domain experts, vertical SAs also participate in field engagement and enablement, producing content such as whitepapers, blogs, and workshops for customers, partners, and the AWS Technical Field.

Health & Human Services / Public Health Specialist Solutions Architects combine technical depth, public health and human services domain knowledge, business acumen, and technical sales skills. They are focused on supporting customers throughout the engagement lifecycle and work closely with the teams that support implementation, including AWS Sellers, Professional Services, and Partners. In this role, you will define technical business strategy in close partnership with our Public Health Business Development Manager (BDM), translating mission priorities - improving health outcomes, expanding access to services, and strengthening program integrity - into scalable go-to-market motions.

SAs unblock customers and help them get to production faster. Joining AWS as a vertical Solutions Architect will give you opportunities to work on interesting and challenging problems impacting citizens globally, collaborate with a group of skilled practitioners focused on delivering outcomes for our customers, and be part of a diverse and inclusive community committed to being Earth's Best Employer.

As a Solutions Architect on the Health & Human Services / Public Health team, you will have the opportunity to work across the breadth of AWS - including data and analytics, GenAI (AWS Bedrock, AWS Kiro, AWS Sage Maker), and secure, compliant infrastructure - to develop architectures, proof-of-concepts, prototypes, and demos that help agencies improve population health. Your work will have a direct impact on constituent outcomes, AWS revenue in the HHS/Public Health segment, and the evolution of our services and product roadmaps via market and customer signals.

We are looking for someone who is passionate about the following:

Helping public health and human services agencies design cloud architectures that improve outcomes for constituents.

Defining technical business strategy in partnership with a Business Development Manager to turn mission priorities into scalable go-to-market motions.

Deep-dive technical discussions around design, with the intellectual curiosity to keep skills current while maintaining a pulse on the HHS/Public Health and cloud industry landscape.

With experience in the following key areas:

Technical presentation experience - whiteboard, small and large group presentations to technical and executive audiences.

Technical - data platforms, analytics/ML, GenAI, and cloud architecture, ideally applied to health or human services domains.
