Principal Solutions Architect, Strategic Accounts

Job description

What if your architecture became the industry blueprint for agentic AI? As a Principal SA embedded with a Fortune 500 technology leader, you'll architect, design, and build multi-agent systems at massive scale while advising C-Suite executives on AI transformation.

The Opportunity

You'll serve as a trusted technical advisor to a technology company that is actively reshaping their industry using AI. You will be a technical counterpart to customer executives who speak fluent AI and expect their AWS Solutions Architect to match that depth and push the conversation further.

The customer is:

- Deploying specialized AI agents across every stage of the traveler journey — from inspiration to booking to in-trip support

- Pioneering a Business-to-Agent (B2A) marketing paradigm — treating AI agents as a first-class audience

- Building MCP-based infrastructure that opens services to third-party AI agents at massive scale

- Leveraging frontier foundation models for real-time inference, fine-tuning, and agentic orchestration

What Makes This Role Different

This role

- Shapes the technical agenda for the account and operates at the C-Suite level

- Builds net-new architectures that become the reference

- Focuses on business outcomes

- Influences company-wide AI strategy

- Span GenAI, ML platforms, agentic systems, data, and infrastructure

Key job responsibilities

- Build — create prototypes, reference implementations, and production-ready architectures that prove the value of new AI capabilities at scale

- Serve as the trusted technical voice — shaping the industry-level conversation on AI

- Access the full power of AWS — engage specialist teams, applied science resources, and product groups to deliver outcomes that no single team could achieve alone

- Pioneer new patterns — the solutions you build define how the industry approaches agentic AI, model orchestration, and intelligent automation

- Mentor the next generation — develop Solutions Architects who can operate at this altitude and complexity

A day in the life

This is a builder role.

You will:

- Architect agentic AI systems — design multi-agent orchestration frameworks, model fine-tuning pipelines, and real-time inference platforms that serve hundreds of millions of users

- Prototype and prove — build working POCs that demonstrate the art of the possible, turning executive vision into deployable architectures in days, not quarters

- Shape AI product strategy — sit in the room where roadmaps are set, influencing not just how but what gets built, both at the customer and within AWS

- Drive the technical relationship — own the end-to-end technical strategy for the customer
