About The Position

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. You'll own the architecture and delivery of production systems that power how AWS Professional Services delivers enterprise cloud migrations and modernization at scale. Our team builds agentic AI solutions — platforms where AI agents and human consultants collaborate as a unified delivery team — reducing migration timelines from years to months and cutting costs dramatically. The work spans the full migration lifecycle: assessment, planning, orchestration, execution, and integration with AWS Transform (Amazon's agentic AI service for enterprise modernization). You'll be building real software used daily by thousands of practitioners serving Fortune 500 customers. This is a hands-on builder role with leadership expectations. You'll write code, design systems, lead projects across multiple engineers, mentor teammates, and own operational excellence for your services — all within a product engineering org that ships fast and measures success by adoption and customer outcomes.

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

Nice To Haves

• 5+ years of full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations experience
• Experience building complex software systems that have been successfully delivered to customers

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

Benefits

• health insurance (medical, dental, vision, prescription, Basic Life & AD&D insurance and option for Supplemental life plans, EAP, Mental Health Support, Medical Advice Line, Flexible Spending Accounts, Adoption and Surrogacy Reimbursement coverage)
• 401(k) matching
• paid time off
• parental leave
• sign-on payments
• restricted stock units (RSUs)
