Over recent years, more and more companies are converting to cloud based computing services because the conversion allows them to save money and have better auditing trails. As a prospective data engineer with Amazon AWS, your interviewer will be looking to hear that you are at least familiar with the concepts of working with cloud based data. Talk in details about the experiences you have while keeping your mind open to working with more in the future if hired with Amazon AWS.

"My current organization has been using Apprenda, a PaaS, that allows us to develop, test and maintain our software projects. I also have experience mining and converting data off of public, community and private cloud networks. If hired here at Amazon AWS, I think I would bring a wealth of cloud based experience to the data engineering team."

I do not possess work-related experience integrating data into the cloud; however, I have experience creating cloud data. I also have an understanding of cloud security and how a customer's data should be protected.
Rachelle's Feedback
It's great that you focus most of your answer on what you DO have versus what you do not. This is a smart move! If you can find a way to avoid starting your answer with 'I do not...' then I recommend doing so as beginning with a negative is rarely a positive approach :)
