The ISV Solutions Architecture team partners with software companies to build, optimize, and scale their products on AWS - unlocking growth through cloud-native architectures, marketplace distribution, and AI-powered differentiation. As a trusted technical advisor, you will help ISVs modernize their platforms, consolidate AI infrastructure onto AWS, and accelerate go-to-market through AWS Marketplace.
What We're Looking For
- Strong familiarity with generative AI architectures: LLM integration patterns, RAG, agentic workflows, and the Amazon Bedrock ecosystem (Agents, Knowledge Bases, Guardrails).
- Ability to articulate the consolidation value of Bedrock vs. direct model provider contracts: security, compliance, cost optimization, and multi-model flexibility.
- Understanding of SaaS architecture patterns: multi-tenancy, control planes, consumption metering, and CI/CD at scale.
- Familiarity with AWS Marketplace, ISV Accelerate, and AWS Partner Network programs.
- Ability to connect architecture decisions to ISV business outcomes (ARR, margins, customer acquisition).
- Experience with modern application development: containers, serverless, microservices, event-driven architectures.
Preferred Qualifications
- Prior experience at a SaaS/ISV company (engineering, architecture, or technical leadership).
- Hands-on experience migrating production AI workloads from direct provider APIs to Amazon Bedrock, including benchmarking and cost modeling.
- Experience with AI developer productivity tooling (Claude Code, Amazon Q Developer, Kiro).
- AWS certifications: (Solutions Architect Professional, DevOps Engineer, or specialty).
Key job responsibilities
- Partner with ISV account teams to formulate and execute technical strategies that drive AWS adoption and platform modernization.
- Drive adoption of Amazon Bedrock as the unified endpoint for frontier foundation models (Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, Meta Llama, Amazon Nova) - helping ISVs consolidate fragmented AI vendor relationships into a secure, cost-optimized access layer.
- Advise ISVs on migrating from direct model provider agreements to Bedrock, articulating the value of unified governance, cross-model flexibility, guardrails, and EDP drawdown.
- Enable ISVs to embed GenAI capabilities into their products using Bedrock Agents, Knowledge Bases, and model customization.
- Advise on AWS Marketplace listing strategies, private offer structures, and co-sell motions to accelerate ISV revenue growth.
- Design and validate architectures for ISV SaaS workloads - including multi-tenancy, tenant isolation, and modern application patterns (containers, serverless, microservices, event-driven).
- Build executive-level technical relationships with ISV CTOs and VPs of Engineering.
- Drive product feedback loops (PFRs) by translating ISV pain points into feature requests for AWS service teams.
