About the job

AWS Global Sales drives adoption of the AWS cloud worldwide, enabling customers of all sizes to innovate and grow. Our team empowers every customer by providing tailored service, compelling technology, and hands-on support.

As a trusted customer advocate, the Solutions Architect will help Consumer Packaged Goods organizations within the Retail, Restaurants and Consumer Goods (RRCG) vertical understand best practices around advanced cloud-based solutions, and how to migrate and modernize existing workloads to the cloud. You will have the opportunity to help shape and execute a strategy to build mindshare and broad adoption of AWS within enterprise CPG, with a specific focus on how Generative AI and Agentic AI are reshaping how CPG companies operate, compete, and serve consumers.

Conduct enablement sessions covering GenAI-powered demand forecasting, agentic ERP exception handling, real-time supply chain analytics, and autonomous trade promotion optimization. Capture and share best practices across the SA community, including reusable agentic AI frameworks and responsible AI governance patterns.
