As a Solutions Architect within Amazon Web Services (AWS) you will have the opportunity to help shape and execute a strategy to build broad adoption of AWS services across small and mid-market customers in Taiwan. You will work as part of the Cloud Sales Center (CSC) AWSs front-line high-velocity sales organization partnering with Cloud Sales Representatives (CSRs) Demand Generation Representatives (DGRs) and our partner ecosystem to serve customers at scale (1:many) and at high velocity.

You will own the technical engagement and ultimate success of customer initiatives across a broad portfolio of accounts from discovery and architecture design through proof-of-concept and production launch. Equally you will own the leverage side of the role: building the Immersion Days workshops demo environments reference architectures and reusable runbooks that extend your technical reach far beyond what 1:1 engagements allow. You will develop deep expertise in AWS technologies while building broad knowledge of how modern applications are architected on AWS including containerization serverless and AI/ML services.
A successful candidate will possess strong customer-facing skills to represent AWS effectively with founders business owners IT managers and senior technical stakeholders combined with technical depth that enables meaningful collaboration with software developers and architects. The judgment to match engagement depth to opportunity knowing when a customer needs a thirty-minute answer rather than a three-week deep dive is as valuable in this role as technical range. Experience with generative AI use cases experience working with channel partners and the ability to deliver technical content to groups are highly valued.
Key job responsibilities
- Act as the technical partner to Cloud Sales Representatives and Demand Generation Representatives across an assigned territory or industry vertical enabling small and mid-market customers to build best-practice solutions on the AWS platform.
- Scope each customer engagement with clear objectives and success criteria applying judgment about the appropriate depth-to-value ratio for a high-velocity segment.
- Drive hands-on proof-of-concept builds technical validations and architecture reviews across Generative AI (Amazon Bedrock Amazon Quick Amazon Kiro) data & analytics security and application modernization to accelerate customer outcomes.
- Design and deliver 1:many technical enablement Immersion Days hands-on workshops webinars and demo environments that reaches many customers simultaneously.

A day in the life
You will own technical outcomes across a broad portfolio of customers which means most days move between several of them. You might spend a morning on three unrelated architecture calls helping an ISV choose between Amazon Bedrock and a self-hosted model sizing a database migration for a manufacturer and walking a startup through a security baseline then join a Cloud Sales Representative to technically qualify a new opportunity before it goes any further. Other days youll deliver an Immersion Day to thirty customers at once build the technical content that makes a Demand Generation campaign credible review a migration design proposed by a partner Solutions Architect or rewrite a reference architecture so that the next twenty customers asking the same question can be answered in an hour instead of a week. The volume is real and so is the judgment it demands: much of the craft in this role is deciding which engagements deserve depth and which are better solved once for everyone. You will work closely with Taiwans fastest-growing businesses and you will be measured as much on the leverage you create as on the individual engagements you support.
