About the Role

Join the founders building the next generation of companies across various sectors like AI/ML, FinTech, ClimateTech, and more. You will have a front-row seat to innovation, providing technical guidance and architectural design for early-stage startups, acting as a fractional CTO or chief architect.

Responsibilities

  • Act as a trusted technical advisor to a portfolio of early-stage founders, designing architectures that are right-sized for where they are today and built to grow if and when they scale
  • Get hands-on: prototype, build reference patterns, and demo working solutions alongside founders rather than handing them a generic playbook
  • Help founders understand and improve the architectures their coding agents generated, making sense of the decisions and tradeoffs baked into what they've already shipped
  • Help startups navigate the fast-moving GenAI landscape, from selecting the right foundation models and AI services to shipping production-ready AI-powered products
  • Guide founders through the real challenges of building GenAI applications, including model cost, latency, accuracy, safety, and AI best practices
  • Help founders make pragmatic build-and-scale decisions, including when to keep architectures disposable and adaptable while the direction is still being validated
  • Stay technically sharp by experimenting with new models, agent frameworks, and emerging tools, so you can advise credibly across the entire stack
  • Build and deepen relationships across San Francisco's startup ecosystem, including top accelerators like Y Combinator, incubators, and leading VC firms
  • Be a voice for your founders, connecting their feedback and needs directly to AWS product and engineering teams to shape the tools being built for them
  • Scout emerging technology trends across the startups you work with and translate those signals back into AWS product roadmaps
  • Share your expertise at startup events, demo days, and developer meetups across the San Francisco ecosystem to build trust and visibility in the community

Requirements

  • Experience conveying complex technical concepts to both technical and business audiences
