For this role, we are looking for folks who have technical breadth complimented by technical depth in HPC, AI/ML, or MLOps, business aptitude, and the ability to lead in-depth technology discussions, articulating the business value of the AWS platform and services. Strong communication and interpersonal skills are required for engaging with Enterprise Architects, Technical Architects, Cloud Architects, Directors, VP’s and CXOs.
