Video Series: Women at AWS
By the Life at AWS Video team
The Women at AWS Spotlight series celebrates the inspiring career journeys of our builders from across the business, and around the world. Each story highlights the influence of the 'Women at AWS' affinity group on our builders, which has enabled them to reach their own professional goals and pay it forward to the next generation of women.
"Women at AWS is a community of colleagues who share common interests, and want to strive for something amazing. We support members in non-technical roles who want to move to a technical position, but simply don't know how. We build self-confidence by showing them that they don't need a computer science degree or years of experience in software engineering.
Antonia
AWS machine learning data scientist
"This affinity group is a safe space for unconventional conversation—the kind of conversations that take courage, and allow others in the group to say, 'yes, that's me, too.' I love seeing people come out of their shells and find confidence that always been there, that perhaps they just lost touch with."
Rashada
AWS enterprise account manager
"We are continually innovating, both what we do and how we do it. ... Women at AWS is a forum where women can connect, collaborate, and challenge each other. I especially enjoy mentoring, because for me, mentorship works both ways. It's two-way learning that benefits everyone."
Arthi
AWS principal serverless solutions architect
"Women at AWS is a community that gives women a chance to meet people from different backgrounds who are now on similar journeys. We share life experiences and work together to lead change."
Fabiola
AWS technical account manager
"We want the next generation to see that their future career is more than they might imagine."
Shoko
AWS principal solutions architect
"Women at AWS is full of people just like me, and everyone can find community. I have been able to extend my network across continents and, as I like to say, work with more than a million of my closest friends. I want people to know that whatever your background, you can find your place in technology."
Deondriea
AWS program manager
