Software Dev Engineer II, AWS Applied AI Solutions

As part of the AWS Applied AI Solutions organization, we have a vision to provide business applications, leveraging Amazon's unique experience and expertise, that are used by millions of companies worldwide to manage day-to-day operations. We will accomplish this by accelerating our customers' businesses through delivery of intuitive and differentiated technology solutions that solve enduring business challenges. We blend vision with curiosity and Amazon's real-world experience to build opinionated, turnkey solutions. Where customers prefer to buy over build, we become their trusted partner with solutions that are no-brainers to buy and easy to use. On Agentic WorkSpaces, our vision is to enable AI agents to work the way humans do. AI agents are no longer chatbots waiting for prompts.

If you like owning features from design through production and want your work to be the reason enterprises trust AI agents, this team is for you. Key job responsibilities * Own features end-to-end: design, implement, test, deploy, and operate in production * Build new services for policy enforcement, session recording and replay, and human-in-the-loop approval workflows * Integrate with AWS services and make build-vs-compose decisions with your team * Handle customer cont [... source excerpt omitted ...] incident response A day in the life Your mornings are usually free for focus work — writing code, reviewing CRs, and working through whatever problem you've picked up. Around 11 you'll have standup, then grab lunch with the team (if you like) before the afternoon opens up for integration work, cross-team syncs, or design reviews. The team is small, so you'll know what everyone is working on, and when something breaks, the whole team rallies. Our pipelines are full CD, our ticket queue is small, and when something pages us we fix the root cause — not just the symptom. We encourage responsible AI usage across our development workflow — it's one way our team moves fast. The prob
