About the Role

The Senior AWS Sales Engineer serves as the primary technical relationship owner and presales authority for assigned AWS partners. This role owns technical outcomes across the presales lifecycle, ensuring solution integrity, architectural alignment, scope accuracy, and delivery readiness.
