- Acting as the customer's trusted senior advisor on migration approach, industry trends, and emerging AWS technologies, influencing executive and architecture decisions
- Raising the technical bar across the organization through mentoring the tech leads and engineers, running enablement, and creating reusable artifacts, patterns, and accelerators
