GenAI Solution Architect-Dubai

Amazon Web Services

<div><h2 class="jobSectionHeader">DESCRIPTION</h2><div>
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is looking for a Senior Solutions Architect to join our Commercial Sector Enterprise team in the UAE. You will work directly with customers in Financial Services, Retail, Travel &amp; Hospitality, and Media &mdash; organizations navigating complex digital transformations where the technology strategy is not yet defined and the right path forward requires both technical depth and business judgment. 
 
This is a builder role. You will go into customer environments, understand their hardest problems, and design solutions that work &mdash; from whiteboard architecture through proof of concept to production. You will bring deep expertise across cloud infrastructure, modern application development, data and analytics, and increasingly, generative AI and machine learning. You will earn trust by shipping things that matter, not by presenting slides. 
 
You will be part of a collaborative, supportive team that values curiosity, ownership, and impact. We learn from each other, coach and develop each other, and build an environment where every voice is heard. 
 
Key job responsibilities 
As a Senior Solutions Architect, you will own the technical relationship with customers end-to-end. This means: 
 
<ul><li>Partnering with enterprise customers to understand their business objectives, assess their current technology landscape, and architect cloud solutions that deliver real outcomes &mdash; in cost optimization, operational efficiency, security, reliability, and innovation.</li></ul> 
<ul><li>Building hands-on: prototypes, proofs of concept, reference architectures, and production-ready designs. You lead by doing, not just advising.</li></ul> 
<ul><li>Helping customers adopt and build with generative AI and machine learning &mdash; identifying high-value use cases, designing architectures for foundation models and intelligent applications, and guiding teams from experimentation to production.</li></ul> 
<ul><li>Acting as the customer's technical advocate inside AWS &mdash; translating field insights into clear, prioritized feedback that shapes the roadmap for AWS services and features.</li></ul> 
<ul><li>Creating and sharing technical content that scales your impact: workshops, blog posts, code samples, reference architectures, and public talks at meetups, user groups, and conferences.</li></ul> 
<ul><li>Shaping the future of our team by helping hire, coach, and mentor fellow Solutions Architects. You make the team stronger because of your presence, but the team does not depend on your presence to succeed.</li></ul> 
A day in the life 
No two days look the same. You might spend the morning whiteboarding a multi-account landing zone architecture with a financial services customer's platform team, then pivot to a hands-on working session helping a retail customer's developers integrate a foundation model into their recommendation engine. In the afternoon you might review a colleague's architecture proposal, draft a blog post on a pattern you discovered in the field, or hop on a call with an AWS service team to advocate for a feature your customer needs. You balance depth with breadth, strategic thinking with hands-on execution, and customer urgency with long-term technical direction.
