Amazon Web Services (AWS) is seeking an experienced SAP Solutions Architect to help public sector customers design, migrate, and modernize their SAP landscapes on AWS. In this role you will work across government, defense, regulated industries and the intelligence community, partnering with SAP Public Sector, systems integrators, and internal AWS teams to deliver mission‑critical outcomes in regulated environments.
Key Job Responsibilities
- Design and architect SAP solutions on AWS aligned to public sector mission outcomes across government, defense, and intelligence community customers.
- Work closely with SAP, systems integrators, and internal AWS teams to drive joint solution delivery for government agencies.
- Provide technical leadership across the full lifecycle: pre‑sales, implementation, migration, and optimization with emphasis on regulated environments.
- Lead architecture reviews, solution design, and technical strategy for SAP workloads including SAP RISE with AWS, S/4HANA Cloud, BTP, and SAP AI services (Joule, AI Foundation, Business AI).
- Build executive and technical stakeholder relationships with government CIOs/CTOs, mission owners, and partner leadership.
- Support RFPs/RFIs, workshops, customer presentations, and public sector GTM activities including agency‑specific capture efforts.
- Mentor junior architects and scale best practices for SAP on AWS in government contexts.
- Stay current on SAP technologies (RISE with SAP, S/4HANA, BTP, SAP AI services), cloud modernization, and public sector regulatory/compliance trends.
A Day in the Life
No two days look the same. You might start with a whiteboard session designing a compliant architecture for a government agency migrating to SAP on AWS, then jump to a call with SAP Public Sector engineering to unblock a joint integration. After lunch you lead a technical deep‑deep dive with a MoD customer evaluating GenAI capabilities, followed by connecting with your partner development manager on pipeline strategy. You balance hands‑on technical work—writing reference architectures, building proofs of concept—with strategic partner engagement, all in service of helping government customers modernize faster.
