Job Description
DESCRIPTION
Do you want to help education technology companies build what's next with generative AI? Do you enjoy owning the technical relationship with a customer, from the first architecture whiteboard to a production launch at scale? Would you like a seat on a sales team where your technical judgment shapes the plan and the strategy?
Amazon Web Services is looking for a Senior Solutions Architect to join the EdTech team in the Worldwide Public Sector (WWPS) organization. You'll be the trusted technical advisor to a set of strategic EdTech customers, from fast-growing startups to established learning platforms that serve millions of students and teachers. You'll help them design, build, and scale on AWS, with a focus on bringing generative and agentic AI into their products in ways that are secure, cost-effective, and ready for production.
From idea to IPO and beyond, AWS sets the standard for education technology. The AWS Cloud lets EdTechs build and launch solutions that help students learn every day. You'll work on problems like scaling for back-to-school peaks, building AI tutors and assistants that teachers and districts can trust, protecting student data, and turning years of learning data into products that improve outcomes.
Key job responsibilities
Key job responsibilities
A day in the life
You might start with an architecture review for a customer launching an AI teaching assistant. Then you build a proof of concept on Amazon Bedrock, and end the day walking a CTO through a plan to cut inference cost before back-to-school. You'll go deep with engineers and stay strategic with executives, often on the same day.
About the team
EdTech West is a subregion of the North America-based WWPS EdTech organization. The team covers eight territories, each containing multiple customer accounts. Every territory operates with a paired Solutions Architect (SA) and Account Manager (AM).
EdTech and its sister GovTech teams (collectively "xTech") belong to the State and Local Government and Education (SLG/EDU) domain.
Our Customers
EdTech customers are Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) that build and deliver SaaS products for education institutions. Most are private-equity backed commercial companies. They prioritize speed to market, cost control, and product innovation. A large portion of our engagements center on guiding these customers through on-premises-to-cloud migrations and Generative AI adoption.
Industry Rhythm
The education technology industry operates on a seasonal cycle aligned with the academic calendar. Customers deploy their largest application and workload changes during summer months when end-user disruption is lowest. New projects, regional expansions, and application launches occur throughout the year.
Why AWS?
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform. We pioneered cloud computing and never stopped innovating — that’s why customers from the most successful startups to Global 500 companies trust our robust suite of products and services to power their businesses.
Diverse Experiences
AWS values diverse experiences. Even if you do not meet all of the preferred qualifications and skills listed in the job description, we encourage candidates to apply. If your career is just starting, hasn’t followed a traditional path, or includes alternative experiences, don’t let it stop you from applying.
Inclusive Team Culture
Here at AWS, it’s in our nature to learn and be curious. Our employee-led affinity groups foster a culture of inclusion that empower us to be proud of our differences. Ongoing events and learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences, inspire us to never stop embracing our uniqueness.
Mentorship & Career Growth
We’re continuously raising our performance bar as we strive to become Earth’s Best Employer. That’s why you’ll find endless knowledge-sharing, mentorship and other career-advancing resources here to help you develop into a better-rounded professional.
Work/Life Balance
We value work-life harmony. Achieving success at work should never come at the expense of sacrifices at home, which is why we strive for flexibility as part of our working culture. When we feel supported in the workplace and at home, there’s nothing we can’t achieve in the cloud.

- Raise the bar for the SA community by mentoring other Solutions Architects, sharing best practices, and speaking at customer and industry events.
- Travel up to 25 to 30% to meet with customers and partners.
Key job responsibilities
- Execution of a strategic technical account plan for platform adoption (e.g., establish relationships to influence technical stakeholders);
- Direct customer interaction to technically qualify and validate sales opportunities (e.g., conduct architecture meetings to validate solution);
- Thought leadership engagements to evangelize and advocate for the AWS platform (e.g., public speaking at customer/partner events) ;
- Curation and documentation of best practices to accelerate deployments of AWS solutions (e.g., public whitepapers, blogs, code);
- Conducting technical enablement for customers/partners (e.g., Immersion Days); and
- Capturing customer feedback and demand for evolving the AWS platform.

Solutions Architect Jobs in Austin: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a solutions architect job in Austin?
Focus your search on Austin's cloud and enterprise software companies, which generate the most solutions architect openings locally. The Domain and downtown corridors are where hiring concentrates, so targeting employers anchored in those districts gives you the best pipeline. Candidates who can demonstrate hands-on AWS, Azure, or GCP architecture alongside consulting or pre-sales experience stand out most in Austin's market, where vendor and SaaS employers dominate alongside mid-market technology services firms.
Which companies hire solutions architects in Austin?
Employers hiring solutions architects in Austin right now include Amazon Web Services, Molex, and AMD, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Austin's hiring base skews toward cloud platform vendors, enterprise SaaS companies, and large financial technology firms, many of which maintain regional headquarters or major engineering hubs in the city.
Are there remote solutions architect jobs in Austin?
Yes, though fully remote availability varies: solutions architect roles that involve client-facing architecture reviews or pre-sales work tend to require at least some on-site presence, while internal platform and cloud architecture positions are more frequently remote. About 54% of solutions architect openings tied to Austin are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the city's strong SaaS and cloud employer base. Internal infrastructure and platform architecture roles at Austin's larger tech employers are the most consistently remote-eligible.
How can I get a solutions architect job in Austin with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path in Austin is moving laterally from a technical support, cloud operations, or software engineering role at one of the city's many SaaS or cloud services companies. Austin-based technology services firms and mid-market cloud consultancies regularly hire associate or junior solutions architects from internal technical roles. Earning a cloud certification such as AWS Solutions Architect Associate, combined with any project experience designing or migrating workloads, is the credential that consistently opens doors with local employers.
Which industries hire the most solutions architects in Austin?
Most solutions architect openings in Austin sit in Electronics & Hardware, Manufacturing, and Technology & Software, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Austin's growth as a cloud platform hub and its concentration of financial technology and enterprise software companies drive sustained demand for solutions architects who can translate technical architecture into business outcomes for commercial and regulated-industry clients.
