Raviteja Sunkavalli

I'm a Sr. Worldwide Specialist Solutions Architect at AWS, specializing in Cloud Operations. With 6+ years of proven experience in the Information Technology and Cloud industry, I excel in designing and supporting complex enterprise infrastructure, including scaling, migrations, and operational excellence. My current focus areas include GenAI Observability, Application Performance Monitoring, and Incident Management across multi-cloud environments.

As a technical advisor for customers across public and private sectors, my work involves architecting solutions to their most complex operational challenges, conducting effective C-suite meetings, and guiding strategic decision-making to drive organizational success. These hands-on customer engagements provide unique insights that flow back to AWS product teams, directly influencing feature development and shaping the product roadmap.

I translate this expertise into thought leadership by sharing best practices through AWS blogs, whitepapers, and reference architectures. I speak at major events like AWS re:Invent and AWS Summits, reaching thousands of practitioners worldwide. I also partner with Business Development teams to define technical components of go-to-market strategies, ensuring our solutions address real customer needs.

Beyond external work, I build internal capabilities. I lead a worldwide community of technical experts and create enablement materials that help engineers integrate AWS services into customer architectures. As a trusted technical advisor, thought leader, and customer advocate, I shape the future of observability and operational excellence in the cloud-native era.
