    Amazon Web Services (AWS) is seeking a Partner Solutions Architect (PSA) to join the Partner Growth & Strategy (PG&S) Organization, focused on Independent Software Vendor (ISV) partners. In this role, you will serve as a trusted technical advisor to strategic ISV partners, helping them architect, build, and optimize their solutions on AWS. You will drive deep technical engagement with ISV partners to accelerate their cloud adoption, validate joint solutions, and enable go-to-market success through co-engineering efforts, technical enablement, and solution design.

    As a PSA in the Partner Growth & Strategy (PG&S) Organization, you will combine broad technical expertise with strong relationship-building skills to influence partner technology decisions, identify strategic design wins, and deliver customer value through partner-led solutions. You will work at the intersection of partner strategy and hands-on technical delivery - bridging business outcomes with cloud architecture best practices.

    Key job responsibilities

    • Serve as the primary technical advisor for assigned ISV partners, conducting architectural reviews, POCs, and Well-Architected assessments
    • Design, build, and validate scalable cloud-native partner solutions through co-engineering efforts that drive strategic design wins (SDWs)
    • Develop reference architectures and best-practice documentation for partner solutions
    • Enable partner teams through workshops, immersion days, and hands-on training; support readiness for ISV Accelerate, Competency programs, and Marketplace
    • Collaborate with AWS field teams (Account SAs, AMs, Specialist SAs) to drive partner-led customer engagements and pipeline growth
    • Track engagement metrics, co-engineering milestones, and strategic design win attainment
    • Partner with AWS service teams to advocate for ISV requirements and influence roadmap priorities
    • Collaborate across APO on territory strategy, partner prioritization, and joint planning
    • Represent AWS at partner events and create technical content (blogs, case studies, whitepapers) showcasing partner success

    About the team

    Your day blends deep technical work with strategic partner engagement. Mornings often start with architecture discussions - whiteboarding a multi-tenant design on EKS or reviewing a partner's Marketplace listing readiness. Mid-day, you're co-engineering hands-on with a partner's team, building a POC that integrates Amazon Bedrock into their platform. Afternoons shift to cross-functional collaboration: syncing with field SAs on customer opportunities, advocating for partner requirements with AWS service teams, or presenting a recent strategic design win to your Tech COE peers. You'll wrap up capturing field insights, updating engagement trackers, and drafting technical content. No two days are identical, but each balances technical depth, relationship building, and measurable partner impact.

So far, this mindset has helped us achieve some incredible things. Let’s build new systems, challenge the status quo, and design the world we want to live in.

    It’s Always Day 1
    At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

    Our Leadership Principles
    Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
