About the role
Join Amazon Web Services (AWS) and launch your career in cloud computing through our Early Career Talent program. You'll gain hands-on expertise designing cloud solutions, learning from experienced architects, and working on real AWS projects that impact millions of customers worldwide.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world's leading cloud computing platform, helping millions of customers, from startups to global enterprises, build and run applications without managing physical servers. We're seeking motivated individuals for our Associate Solutions Architect role within Early Career Talent, a structured learning experience designed to develop the next generation of cloud solutions architects.
This program serves as a pathway to building foundational knowledge in cloud computing, AWS services, and solutions architecture principles in a supportive, education-first environment. You'll learn to understand customer requirements, build working cloud solutions, and communicate technical recommendations effectively while being mentored by experienced Solutions Architects.

You might shadow customer engagements to see how solutions are presented to diverse audiences, then return to work on your own project, experimenting with AWS services and architecture principles. Throughout the program, you'll develop presentation skills by communicating technical concepts to colleagues and mentors, receiving feedback that helps you grow as a solutions architect.
