We are looking for people that are humble, authentic, value driven and empathic. The culture is strong at Amazon and we are driven by our leadership principles in our day to day work. As a more experienced Solutions Architect, you will be able to have conversations with leaders of companies about their strategy as well as with developers that are doing the implementation.
