Not in that role, but recent AWS hire. Learn about STAR interviews, read about the leadership principles in the context of your STAR stories (and STAR is just a format for a story). The HR and phone screen calls are important. Dont try to BS what you don't know, be honest. More on reddit.com

what have you done in AWS? AWS has a free tier. Sign up. You get 700+ hours to run an instance. That's enough to run one instance all month. Don't do that. Practice orchestrating multiple instances. Practice fail-over. Practice config management like Ansible/Chef/Puppet. Practice making the root drive disposable, and only putting data on a backed-up EBS data drive. Practice creating AMIs. Find some projects in Lambda on github and practice installing, configuring and monitoring them. Use SES. Use S3 lifecycle rules. Understand IAM roles. Stop using the Console - You should use the AWS CLI for everything, it's much more efficient and repeatable. Try managing some things using TerraForm. Make a website with GeoIP, CDN, where it takes markdown documents from one S3 bucket and transforms them into HTML via Lamba to another bucket. Yes, this takes time. But it won't cost more than a few bucks. More on reddit.com
