Software Development Engineer, Applied AI Solutions

About the role

The Physical AI team at AWS is developing infrastructure that enables customers to build digital twins, train autonomous systems, and deploy edge intelligence at scale. As these capabilities grow, the experience layer—how customers discover, interact with, and visualize their physical AI workloads—is a key part of making the platform accessible and useful.

Responsibilities

• Design and implement the AWS console experience for the Physical AI platform, enabling customers to manage spatial data assets, configure digital twin lifecycles, and monitor autonomous operations through intuitive dashboards built with CloudScape design system components.
• Build and maintain the public API surface and SDKs that customers and partners use to programmatically interact with the Spatial Data Management Architecture (SDMA), including REST APIs for CRUD operations, streaming APIs for real-time spatial data, and CLI tooling for developer workflows.
• Develop the 3D visualization layer that renders OpenUSD scenes, NVIDIA RTX-powered digital twins, and multi-modal spatial data (point clouds, 2D overlays, sensor streams) in the browser using WebGL/WebGPU, enabling customers to inspect, annotate, and collaborate on digital twin environments without local software installation.
• Create interactive coverage dashboards and analytics views that surface operational insights from spatial data pipelines—processing volumes, digital twin health, edge device status, and autonomous system performance metrics.
• Define and enforce API design standards, versioning strategies, and backward compatibility practices across the Physical AI platform, ensuring a consistent and composable developer experience as the service surface grows.
• Partner with Physical AI Platform engineers to translate backend capabilities (SDMA, digital twin orchestration, edge-to-cloud communication) into customer-facing experiences, and with UX designers to validate interaction patterns through customer research and usability testing.
• Surface partner solution integrations within the console experience, ensuring customers can discover, activate, and navigate partner capabilities alongside native workflows without context-switching between platforms.

Requirements

• 3+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
• 2+ years of non-internship design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience

• 1+ years of Object Oriented Design experience
• Bachelor's degree or foreign equivalent in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field

• Experience programming with at least one software programming language

Skills

• Full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations experience
• Object Oriented Design experience
