I am a Principal Solutions Architect with 13 YOE of which 5 years exp is with Biotech focusing on Public Cloud (AWS) & overall AWS exp. 9 years. I need suggestions /opinions if applying for a Senior Solutions Architect (Level6) at AWS makes sense or if I should aim for a Principal SA (level 7) role at AWS with Healthcare & Lifesciences industry experience. If it makes any difference, I worked for AWS ProServe as an external SA in the past. Any insights / feedback appreciated.

Assume they’ll come in with a 10% bump. But it also depends on the company. Everywhere is different. Yes they’re negotiable. Get a number in your head that you’re comfortable accepting a promotion at. If you don’t get that number, make your case. If they say it stands at what it is, find a different job that’ll pay you what you’re asking for.
I'm hearing about a lot of 3-5% bumps, but that's in tech. Everything will depend on your company and your role and your value, don't be afraid to push for more!
Definitely varies by industry and company. You can ask around your company (if there's anyone you're comfortable asking) about their past bumps to get an idea. If it's a big company you may be able to ask here in your industry bowl for people's experiences there.
10% is standard according to the HR experts, however I’ve heard of people getting 20%.
It really depends. I think the average is about 10%. I have never negotiated one but it never hurts to ask.
