Sr. Solutions Architect (Bilingual) – Amazon – Toronto, ON

Amazon’s Alexa International team is hiring a Senior Solutions Architect (Bilingual) based in Toronto, Ontario — a founding-team role at the heart of one of the company’s most forward-looking AI initiatives. If you’re a technically deep engineer who also thrives in strategic conversations, and you speak English plus Spanish, Portuguese, or Canadian French, this is worth a close look.

This position puts you at the centre of Alexa+’s third-party integration program across the Americas, working closely with strategic partners in Canada, Mexico, and Brazil. You’ll guide partner engineering teams through complex agentic architecture designs, oversee integrations from first technical contact through to production launch, and help shape the playbooks that will define how Amazon scales this program to hundreds of partners.

About the Role: Sr. Solutions Architect – Bilingual, Alexa International

As a Senior Solutions Architect, you’ll serve as the technical face of Amazon for its most strategic third-party partners in the Americas. Your work will span end-to-end integration design — from backend services and API layers to front-end rendering — using modern protocols such as MCP, tool-calling, and REST. You’ll own the full integration lifecycle and be hands-on with partner teams to assess readiness, architect solutions, and troubleshoot challenges across multiple device surfaces including Echo devices, mobile, Fire TV, and Alexa.com.

Beyond delivery, this role carries a scalable enablement mandate: you’ll build reusable integration patterns, reference architectures, and onboarding documentation that reduce the need for one-on-one engagement over time. You’ll also collaborate directly with Amazon’s internal product leadership during early capability formation, using real partner learnings to influence the Alexa+ roadmap. This is a founding contributor position — the patterns you establish will set the standard for how Amazon works with partners across categories for years to come.

Benefits and Salary

This position offers a base salary range of $146,000 to $211,600 CAD annually for the Toronto location. Amazon’s total compensation package may also include sign-on payments and Restricted Stock Units (RSUs), with final compensation determined by experience, qualifications, and location. Benefits include comprehensive health insurance (medical, dental, vision, prescription, basic life and AD&D), a Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP), a Deferred Profit Sharing Plan (DPSP), paid time off, and additional wellness resources.

Responsibilities

Day to day, this role blends deep technical delivery with strategic partner engagement. You’ll spend time in design discussions, troubleshooting sessions with partner engineering teams, and internal alignment meetings with Amazon’s business development, product, and engineering organizations. Every integration you lead is an opportunity to refine the playbook for what comes next.

• Design and deliver end-to-end partner integration solutions using modern protocols and agentic patterns (MCP, tool-calling, REST) that feel native to Alexa+
• Work hands-on with partner engineering teams to assess technical readiness, architect full-stack solutions (backend services, API design, front-end rendering), and troubleshoot complex integration challenges
• Collaborate with internal engineering teams to test and deploy software packages required to onboard partners to Alexa+
• Exercise strong judgment in ambiguous technical situations, making clear trade-off recommendations on solution strategies
• Create reusable integration patterns, technical documentation, and onboarding playbooks that accelerate future partner launches
• Develop reference architectures that leverage horizontal capabilities (compositional rendering, streaming, smart routing) to address common partner needs
• Own technical relationships with partner engineering and product teams from commitment through launch
• Influence the roadmap by collaborating with product leadership during early capability formation, using real integration learnings and data-driven analysis

Amazon is looking for a technically versatile, bilingual professional who can move fluidly between deep engineering conversations and high-level strategic discussions with partner leadership. The right candidate brings a strong foundation in modern integration protocols and agentic system design, paired with the communication skills to translate technical complexity into business value.
