Want to help the largest public sector customers and global enterprises derive business value through the adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI)? Eager to learn from many different enterprises’ use cases of AWS Edge, IoT, and ML? Do you have a strong combination of deep technical knowledge, business acumen, and interpersonal skills?

At Amazon Web Services (AWS), we are helping large enterprises build Edge/IoT ML solutions on the AWS Cloud. We are applying ML techniques to large volumes of IoT and customer data against a wide spectrum of problems. Our Professional Services organization works together with our AWS customers to address their business needs using AI.

If you have experience with IoT, Edge devices, and AI, and want to work with AWS sales, business development, solution architects, and service teams to drive AWS adoption, we’d like to have you join our team. You will get to work with an innovative company, with great teammates, and have a lot of fun helping our customers.

A successful candidate will be a person who enjoys diving deep into customer problems, doing analysis, discovering root causes, and designing long-term solutions. The candidate will be a person who likes to have fun, loves to learn, and wants to innovate in the world of Cloud/Edge hybrid deployments, IoT, and AI.

Here at AWS, we embrace our differences. We are committed to furthering our culture of inclusion. We have ten employee-led affinity groups, reaching 40,000 employees in over 190 chapters globally. We have innovative benefit offerings, and we host annual and ongoing learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences. Amazon’s culture of inclusion is reinforced within our 14 Leadership Principles, which remind team members to seek diverse perspectives, learn and be curious, and earn trust.

We're dedicated to supporting new team members. Our team has a broad mix of experience levels and Amazon tenures, and we’re building an environment that celebrates knowledge sharing and mentorship.

Our team also puts a high value on work-life balance. Striking a healthy balance between your personal and professional life is crucial to your happiness and success here, which is why we aren’t focused on how many hours you spend at work or online. Instead, we’re happy to offer a flexible schedule so you can have a more productive and well-balanced life—both in and outside of work.
