Solution Architect, Vehicle Technology CoE

Description

AWS's Vehicle Technology Team is a global Center of Excellence covering AMER, EMEA and APJ. It helps automakers, Tier-1 suppliers and mobility companies build the next generation of vehicles on AWS. As a Senior Solutions Architect, you'll set the worldwide technical strategy for our three core areas: Software-Defined Vehicle (SDV), ADAS/Autonomous Driving, and E/E Architecture. You'll be the technical lead on pilot engagements with strategic customers. You'll also choose and build relationships with key technology partners, and turn new ideas into demos for the industry's biggest stages.

This role is for a hands-on technologist who can talk architecture with OEM engineering leaders in the morning and build a working prototype in the afternoon. You'll have real influence on how AWS shows up in the automotive industry.

Key job responsibilities

Technical strategy: Guide the worldwide technical strategy for Vehicle Technology across SDV, ADAS/AV and E/E Architecture, and turn industry trends into reference architectures and solution patterns.

Pilot customer engagements: Lead pilot engagements with strategic automotive customers from discovery through proof of concept, and help turn them into production pipeline.

Partner ecosystem: Choose and work closely with key automotive partners (silicon, simulation, middleware, toolchain and systems integrators) to build joint solutions.

Industry demos: Build demos for flagship events such as AWS re:Invent, CES and IAA Mobility, working with account solutions architects.

Ambassador programs: Represent AWS in strategic technology ambassador programs, such as with NVIDIA and OpenAI.

Thought leadership: Speak at conferences, write blogs and whitepapers, and give product teams feedback from the field.

A day in the life

No two days are the same. In the morning you might meet with the E/E architecture team at a European OEM to look at how a zonal compute design maps to a cloud-native development and validation toolchain. Around midday you could join a working session with a silicon or simulation partner to scope a joint reference architecture for virtual ECUs and large-scale ADAS simulation. In the afternoon you might get hands-on with a prototype for the next CES or IAA Mobility demo, working with an account solutions architect who has a customer ready to see it.
