About The Position

We are looking for an experienced Support Engineer with the ability to deep-dive
into complex creative-technical workflows, invent and simplify with a high
degree of ownership, and deliver a world-class support experience for the
creators building the future of entertainment.

As a Support Engineer on the AI Studios Engineering team within Prime Video and
Amazon MGM Studios, you will be the single point of contact for all customer
intake on Nara, our AI-native content creation platform that empowers animators,
filmmakers, and storytellers to produce professional animation and
live-action/VFX content featuring world-class intellectual properties at
unprecedented speed and scale.

This is a uniquely high-impact, high-autonomy role. You will serve creators who
operate under tight production timelines and expect a premium, frictionless
experience. You will balance delivering the white-glove support that
entertainment professionals demand with building scalable mechanisms including
AI-powered agents that act as delegate support engineers to multiply your
capacity without sacrificing quality. You will be the strategic bridge between
creative users and engineering teams, exercising judgment on when to shield and
when to connect, ensuring engineers develop genuine empathy for the creators
they serve while staying focused on building.

Requirements

• Experience troubleshooting and debugging technical systems, or experience in development or technical support
• Experience in agile/scrum or related collaborative workflow, or experience in development or technical support
• Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, mathematics or equivalent, or Master's degree

Nice To Haves

Responsibilities

• Strategic Intake & Operations As the single-threaded leader for Nara platform customer intake, you will own the end-to-end support experience for Prime Video’s elite creative talent (animators, VFX artists, and filmmakers). You will define SLAs and KPIs where time-to-resolution directly impacts production delivery timelines.
• White-Glove Service at Scale You will provide a "red carpet" experience high-touch, polished, and attuned to the urgency of live production. To balance quality with capacity, you will build scalable mechanisms, including intelligent triage, automated routing, and self-service playbooks, deciding precisely where the human touch is irreplaceable.
• Bridge to Engineering Serving as the interface between creators and AI Studios, you will translate workflow blockers into actionable technical requirements. You will influence Software Engineering and Product roadmaps by exercising judgment on when to shield teams from "noise" versus when to foster direct creator-engineer empathy.
• AI-Driven Evolution Operating as a solo lead, you will scale your impact by architecting a support model powered by AI agents. Using LLMs and agentic frameworks, you will codify platform knowledge into automated delegates that act as support engineers, expanding coverage while maintaining a premium creator experience.
