AWS Specialist Solutions Architects (SSAs) are technologists with deep domain-specific expertise, capable of addressing advanced concepts and feature designs. As part of the AWS sales organization, SSAs work with customers facing complex challenges that require expert-level knowledge to solve. SSAs craft scalable, secure, and resilient technical architectures to address these challenges. This may involve guiding customers as they refactor applications or designing entirely new cloud-based solutions.
Specialist SAs play a critical role in capturing customer feedback, advocating for roadmap enhancements, and anticipating customer requirements by working backwards from their needs. As domain experts, SSAs also participate in field engagement and enablement, producing content such as whitepapers, blogs, and workshops for customers, partners, and the AWS Technical Field.
