Sr. Software Development Engineer, Products and Solutions

About the role

We're looking for a Senior Software Development Engineer who wants to build AI-powered products that change how enterprises move to the cloud — and who thrives as the technical anchor of an AWS 2-pizza team.

Responsibilities

• Own team-level architecture — design systems that are simple, extensible, and operationally sound
• Influence design and technical decisions beyond your immediate team, contributing to org-wide architectural direction and engineering standards
• Lead projects spanning multiple engineers; make sound technical decisions and drive execution from design through production deployment
• Design and build agentic AI components — whether that's agent logic, orchestration workflows, evaluation pipelines, or integration APIs
• Write production code daily — you should spend the majority of your time building, not meeting
• Set engineering standards on your team: code quality, testing practices, CI/CD pipelines, observability, and incident response
• Solve complex distributed systems problems where trade-offs between latency, consistency, extensibility, and cost aren't obvious
• Proactively identify and resolve technical debt; simplify systems rather than layering complexity
• Mentor and grow engineers on your team; help junior and mid-level engineers level up through code reviews, design guidance, and career coaching
• Communicate technical designs clearly in writing — design docs, RFCs, and architecture decision records
• Drive operational excellence: meaningful alarms, runbooks, dashboards, and a culture of learning from incidents
• Travel ~5% to customer sites and partner team locations to understand how your tools perform in the field

Requirements

• 5+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
• 5+ years of programming with at least one software programming language experience
• 5+ years of leading design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience
• Experience as a mentor, tech lead or leading an engineering team
• Experience with Machine Learning and Large Language Model fundamentals, including architecture, training/inference lifecycles, and optimization of model execution
• Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent

Qualifications

• Experience building complex software systems that have been successfully delivered to customers

Skills

• Python
• AWS CDK
• React
• Heavy use of AWS services (Bedrock, Step Functions, Lambda, DynamoDB, API Gateway, and others)

Benefits

Final compensation will be determined based on factors including experience, qualifications, and location. Amazon also offers comprehensive benefits including health insurance, 401(k) matching, paid time off, and parental leave.
