About The Position

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.

We are seeking an exceptional Software Development Manager to lead engineering
teams building the foundational systems and consumer-facing features that enable
trustworthy AI experiences at scale. You will partner closely with Product,
Design, Legal, and Research teams to drive the technical strategy and execution
for privacy-preserving AI architectures, responsible AI frameworks, and set the
standard for consumer AI products. Our mission is to accelerate our customers'
businesses through intuitive, differentiated technology solutions that solve
enduring supply chain challenges. If you're passionate about creating
enterprise-grade applications that combine Amazon's operational excellence with
technology, we want to hear from you.

This is a high-impact leadership role where you'll build and scale engineering
teams tackling complex technical challenges at the intersection of AI innovation
and customer trust—balancing performance with privacy, building explainable AI
systems, and creating guardrails that protect customers while enabling
delightful experiences. You will be responsible for establishing technical
standards, driving architectural decisions, and developing engineering leaders
who can navigate the evolving landscape of AI safety and privacy. We operate
like a startup within AWS, offering you the opportunity to tackle unprecedented
challenges at global scale while working with state-of-the-art technologies. If
you're passionate about building intuitive, scalable solutions and want to shape
the future of supply chain management while working in a fast-paced,
collaborative environment, we want to hear from you. This role offers unique
opportunities to innovate, influence architecture decisions, and make
significant impacts through machine learning technologies, all while having the
backing of AWS extensive resources.
