Senior FSI Solutions Architect

Job ID: 2917659 | AWS EMEA SARL (Denmark Branch)

This role is within the Danish FSI organization and you would be working with major banks, insurance companies, and other financial institutions.

Solutions Architects work hand in hand with customers to help them make the most of the Cloud. They are at the crossroads of business and technology and engage with organizations at all stages of cloud adoption. Solutions Architects are responsible for creating and presenting technical content and sharing best practices specific to the FSI industry.

Solutions Architects are responsible for the overall technical relationship between customers and AWS and make recommendations on security, cost, performance, reliability, and operational efficiency. They work to understand the customer's needs and give prescriptive guidance on how FSI companies can create business value with AWS technology. Solutions Architects lead activities such as architecture reviews, white-boarding sessions, demos, and technical workshops. They collaborate with other teams such as account management, professional services, support, product teams, and the AWS partner ecosystem.

In this role, you will get to apply your FSI domain expertise, linking technology to tangible solutions and educating AWS FSI customers about the art of the possible. You will have the opportunity to define or invent cloud-native reference architectures tailored for FSI use cases. The Solutions Architecture team includes professionals with deep knowledge of the FSI industry. Practical knowledge of the AWS platform is desired but not required, provided you have a sound technical foundation and a desire to learn.

You will have the support to grow your expertise in FSI-focused technology areas. Every day you will learn something new from your customers, your peers, and your own experiments.

At Amazon, you will be encouraged and rewarded for doing what is right for the long-term success of the customer. We value your passion to discover, invent, and build on behalf of customers.

Amazon has always been, and always will be, committed to diversity and inclusion. We seek builders from all backgrounds to join our teams, and we encourage our employees to bring their authentic, original, and best selves to work.

1. Work directly with strategic FSI customers to accelerate their challenging, mission-critical projects and recommend best-practice architectures in line with their long-term business outcomes.
2. Build technical relationships with FSI customers and operate as their trusted advisor. The best interests of the FSI customer will shape the guidance you provide.
3. Share the voice of the FSI customer to inform the roadmap of AWS features tailored for the industry.
4. Participate in the creation and sharing of FSI-focused best practices, technical content, and new reference architectures (e.g. white papers, code samples, blog posts).
5. Evangelize and educate FSI customers about AWS technology (e.g. through workshops, user groups, meetups, public speaking, online videos, or conferences).
6. Contribute to the growth of the Solutions Architecture organization by interviewing candidates and having a voice in hiring decisions. You will also be helping others develop new skills by mentoring team members and identifying talent needs in the organization.
7. Develop areas of depth in technical domains relevant to FSI outcomes.

• 5+ years experience in the financial services industry.
• Background in Cloud Architecture, Systems Design, Software Development, Infrastructure Architecture, Data Engineering, or DevOps within FSI companies.
