Hiring: Solutions Architect - NPO, Membership Account Team Company: Amazon Web Services (AWS) Location: Seattle, WA Job Posted Time: 2026-09-09 18:02:00 Target Skills & Keywords : AWS, C, Clean Architecture, HBase, QUIC About the job Required Skills: •AWS Worldwide Public Sector's US Nonprofit (NPO) Solutions Architecture team is hiring a Solutions Architect II to partner with Account Executives across the Membership sub-vertical and serve the largest membership-based nonprofits in the United States — organizations whose missions touch tens of millions of Americans every year. •You will architect, demo, and accelerate AWS adoption for customers including national associations, religious organizations, charities, and member-services nonprofits — accounts where a single architectural decision can affect millions of members or program participants. The Membership sub-vertical inside NPO grew **+15.7% YoY YTD growth on $65.9M YTD QSR (106.2% attainment)** in H1 2026, with every month at or above 100% attainment. The work spans the most active themes in 2026 customer conversations: production generative AI on Amazon Bedrock, AI-driven business intelligence on Amazon Quick Suite, contact-center modernization on Amazon Connect, large-scale migrations from on-premises and competing clouds, and modern data platforms on AWS Lake Formation, AWS Glue, and Amazon QuickSight. •This is a player-coach team. We expect SAs to drive customer outcomes individually AND to invest in each other's growth — through a bi-weekly Kiro demo-build program, a structured SA-AE mock customer-call program for skill development, peer architecture review, and shared development of internal accelerators (Kiro CLI workflow automation, agentic-AI playbooks, customer-engagement frameworks). You will be expected to ship customer wins in your first 90 days, and you will be developed toward the next level from day one. •Key job responsibilities •Serve as the primary technical advisor on a named book of strategic Membership sub-vertical accounts (typically 3–5 accounts), partnering daily with their Account Executive on customer engagement strategy, opportunity progression, and stakeholder alignment from technical-IC altitude up to CIO/CTO/CFO. •Drive end-to-end AWS adoption across customer workloads: discovery, architecture design, proof of concept, production deployment, and ongoing optimization. Own the technical narrative across the customer's full lifecycle on AWS. •Lead production-altitude generative AI engagements on Amazon Bedrock — including Knowledge Base + AgentCore deployments, Retrieval-Augmented Generation patterns, model selection and inference-latency optimization, agentic-AI use cases (Strands SDK, Amazon Q), and Responsible AI guardrails for member-facing applications. •Architect contact-center modernization on Amazon Connect (including Amazon Lex, Amazon Nova Sonic for voice, agentic voice-banking patterns) and AI-driven analytics on Amazon Quick Suite, AWS Lake Formation, AWS Glue, and Amazon QuickSight. •Lead customer-facing immersion days, builder days, and executive-altitude technical briefings — translating business priorities into AWS architectures, pricing estimates, and roadmap proposals. •Build and contribute reusable demo and architecture patterns to the NPO SA org's bi-weekly Kiro demo-build program — your work is expected to multiply beyond your accounts and benefit peer SAs across the broader NPO vertical. •Mentor more junior SAs on the team via structured coaching: the SA-AE mock customer-call program, build-day shadowing, peer review of customer artifacts, and pair-architecting on complex engagements. •Influence customer technical and business stakeholders at director through C-suite altitude Compensation: •$65 Interested candidates, please apply directly through the job posting on company's career page or try via AI auto apply on this platform.
