Welcome to Season 2! My guest is lifelong learner Fred Hoskyns (Sr. Solutions Architect, AWS).
In this episode, I ask Fred how he built a bridge into the AWS cloud and created learning and career progression to the Sr. Solutions Architect role. Fred didn't start in tech - he majored in French & Italian and worked abroad in the Oil & Gas sector.
Back in London, Fred joined Amazon and progressed to a team lead position with Amazon Global Selling. -Fred describes why he made a big change from e-commerce sales into Cloud solutions architecture with AWS. That's a significant technical jump, imho!
-Fred used #5Pillars like Effective Training and Powerful certifications.
-With the help of Well-placed Mentors, Fred is becoming Credible, Capable and Visible in Cloud solutions architecture.
