Key job responsibilities
- Build the GenAI-powered future of Prime experiences — design and develop Agentcore infrastructure, multi-agent orchestration, and autonomous experimentation capabilities.
- Collaborate with experienced cross-disciplinary Amazonians to conceive, design, and bring innovative products and services to market — from natural language program configuration to AI-driven CX generation.
- Design and build innovative technologies in a large distributed computing environment, including Agent-to-Agent (A2A) communication frameworks, ML-powered recommendation engines, and real-time event-driven orchestration systems.
- Create solutions that run at incredible scale and speed — our platform serves hundreds of millions of Prime customers across dozens of countries, processing millions of state transitions daily.
- Build distributed, fault-tolerant systems that are scalable, low cost, and easy to manage — from experience orchestration engines to incentive management platforms.
- Design and code the right solutions starting with broadly defined problems — you'll own features end-to-end, from architecture to production deployment.
- Work in an agile environment to deliver high-quality software with development cycles measured in weeks, not years.

A day in the life
The challenges SDEs solve for at Amazon are big and influence millions of customers, sellers, and products around the world. We are looking for individuals who are passionate about creating new products, features, and services from scratch while managing ambiguity and the pace of a company where development cycles are measured in weeks, not years.
