Sr. Startup Solution Architect, Canada Startups Do you like startups? Are you interested in cloud computing? If so, we have a role you might find interesting. Startups are the large enterprises of the future. These young companies are founded by ambitious people who want to build something meaningful and challenge the status quo. They often operate with limited capital, engineering resources, or experience. This is where you come in.

Key Job Responsibilities

Create plans, in conjunction with other member teams, to define how you will help customers with their cloud needs.

Share technical knowledge broadly by participating in startup‑focused sessions with larger groups of customers.

Collaborate with other AWS teams, such as marketing and training, to create content that can be delivered to the broader startup community at scale.

A Day in the Life As a Startup Solutions Architect, you partner directly with co‑founders and CTOs to architect scalable cloud solutions that accelerate their growth. Your day involves evaluating technical requirements across AI, containers, and serverless architectures, leading hands‑on workshops, and designing migration strategies with partners. You collaborate with fieldengineers and product teams to remove scaling bottlenecks, optimize costs, and translate startup feedback into product improvements. Your guidance helps startups reduce time‑to‑market and build resilient architectures that fuel their expansion.
