Technical Lab Developer, Training and Certification
Job ID: 3130419 | Amazon Web Services Australia Pty Ltd
As cloud technologies continue to transform businesses, skilled individuals are in high demand. At AWS Training and Certification (T&C), we are passionate about revolutionizing the way people advance their cloud skills and careers. We equip diverse builders of today and tomorrow with the knowledge they need to leverage the power of the AWS Cloud. Join our dynamic, fast-growing team and help us empower our customers to build cloud skills.
We are looking for a Technical Lab Developer who wants to be a part of building exciting and new training for AWS Training and Certification.
Customers are rapidly adopting Amazon Web Services (AWS) as a way to build scalable and cost-effective web and IT solutions for their businesses. To do that effectively, they need training – not just a few PowerPoint slides and a long lecture. AWS is developing highly technical learning focused on cloud security, machine learning (ML) models, and Generative AI (GenAI) solutions that get customers deep into AWS technologies. The qualified candidate will have experience implementing cloud environment security best practices, an understanding of how ML models and GenAI solutions are implemented within cloud infrastructure, and a demonstrated ability to design architecture strategies based on technical requirements and learning objectives. Candidates will have excellent technical knowledge of AWS domains and, above all, a passion for learning.
Please note up to 10% travel may be required for this role, primarily for event support.
Key job responsibilities
* Dive deep into AWS technologies such as Security, Machine Learning, Generative AI, Big Data, Web Applications, Networking, High‑Performance Computing, Storage, Databases, Enterprise Applications, Migration Strategies, and other solutions areas to understand services and develop effective training for our customers.
* Develop and maintain a cohesive set of real‑world, scenario‑based labs to reinforce learning objectives for AWS courseware by offering hands‑on learning for students.
* Ensure that hands‑on labs are built for scalability and long‑term support.
* Work with Technical Curriculum Architects and Lab Engineers to provide support and maintenance for the deployed hands‑on labs.
* Determine services and features to be included in course lab exercises based on intended audience profile, learning objectives, AWS best practices and strategic initiatives.
* Collaborate with Subject Matter Experts across AWS (including Curriculum Developers, Technical Trainers, Support Engineers, Professional Services, and Solutions Architects) to build technically accurate training that meets learning objectives.
