Amazon Hpc Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Amazon Web Services is seeking an Advanced Computing Solutions Architect to support our Intelligence Community (IC), Department of Energy (DoE), and broader U.S. Federal Government customers.
Are you excited to help U.S. Government customers leverage performant networks, computing nodes, and emerging technologies to solve the most important workloads in advanced computing? From high performance computing (HPC) and quantum computing to large-scale analytics, modeling, and simulation, this role sits at the forefront of next-generation compute. Thrilled to be a key part of Amazon, who has been investing in agile and elastic compute for decades, pioneering and shaping the world's technology? Come join us!
Key job responsibilities
Advanced computing is growing in importance as these systems are critical to the explosion of ML, AI, quantum research, and scientific discovery. We're seeing more and more amazing work being done from autonomous vehicles and imagery analysis to financial trading, logistics optimization, and quantum algorithm development. Given the scale required for advanced computing workloads, the cloud is an ideal place to deploy them, and Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the leader. We're looking for someone passionate and deeply excited about this space. Someone who is devoted to helping U.S. Government customers understand how advanced computing, including HPC, quantum computing, and custom accelerators, can make a big difference to their mission.
As an Advanced Computing Solutions Architect (SA), you will be the Subject Matter Expert (SME) for designing solutions that leverage AWS services to enable and optimize advanced computing workloads and their key performance indicators. You will work across multiple domains including HPC, quantum computing (Amazon Braket), custom silicon (AWS Graviton, AWS Trainium, AWS Inferentia), and high-performance networking. As part of the Specialist Solutions Architecture team, you will work closely with other Specialist SAs to enable large-scale customer use cases and drive the adoption of AWS for advanced computing. You will interact with other SAs in the field, providing guidance on their customer engagements, and you will develop white papers, blogs, reference implementations, and presentations to enable customers and partners to fully leverage advanced computing on AWS. You will also create field enablement materials for the broader SA population, to help them understand how to integrate AWS advanced computing solutions into customer architectures.
You must have deep technical experience working with technologies related to advanced computing, such as high-speed I/O (storage, networking), processing (including GPU and custom accelerators), quantum computing frameworks, and code customization to exploit underlying hardware. A strong engineering, physics, computer science, or mathematics background is preferred, in addition to experience helping customers architect enterprise grade solutions. You will be familiar with the ecosystem of software and hardware vendors in the advanced computing space, including HPC and quantum. You must have the ability to leverage this knowledge to help AWS customers in their technology selection process.
Candidates must have great communication skills and be very technical, with the ability to impress AWS customers at any level, from executive to developer. Previous experience with AWS is desired but not required, provided you have experience building large scale solutions. You will get the opportunity to work directly with senior engineers at customers, partners and AWS service teams, influencing their roadmaps and driving innovation.
If you are someone who enjoys innovating, likes solving hard problems and working on the next generation of technology, we would love to have you on the team.
This position requires that the candidate selected be a US Citizen and must currently possess and maintain an active TS/SCI security clearance with polygraph. The position further requires the candidate to opt into a commensurate clearance for each government agency for which they perform AWS work.
