About the Role
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 responsibilities include designing and architecting SAP solutions on AWS aligned to public sector mission outcomes, working closely with SAP and systems integrators to drive joint solution delivery, providing technical leadership across the full lifecycle including pre-sales, implementation, migration, and optimization, and leading architecture reviews and technical strategy for SAP workloads such as SAP RISE with AWS, S/4HANA Cloud, BTP, and SAP AI services.

You will build executive and technical stakeholder relationships with government CIOs/CTOs, mission owners, and partner leadership, support RFPs/RFIs, workshops, customer presentations, and public sector go-to-market activities including agency-specific capture efforts. Mentoring junior architects and scaling best practices for SAP on AWS in government contexts is also a key part of the role.

The role requires staying current on SAP technologies, cloud modernization, and public sector regulatory and 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 join a call with SAP Public Sector engineering to unblock a joint integration. Later, you could lead a technical deep-dive with a Ministry of Defence customer evaluating Generative AI capabilities, followed by connecting with your partner development manager on pipeline strategy. You'll balance hands-on technical work such as writing reference architectures and building proofs of concept with strategic partner engagement, all aimed at helping government customers modernize faster.

About the team
We are the WWPS ISV Partner Solutions Architecture team, a group of solution architects embedded with strategic software partners serving U.S. and global public sector and regulated industry customers. We operate at the intersection of AWS and our ISV partners, helping government agencies modernize by combining the best of both platforms. Our SAP-focused architects work hands-on with SAP Public Services to architect cloud-native solutions that meet the unique compliance, security, and scale requirements of public sector customers. We are technical, customer-obsessed, and thrive on solving complex problems with real mission impact.
