Original job description

Description

AWS Applied AI Solutions (AAIS) is building toward a future where every business innovates with Amazon AI teammates. To get there, we build AI solutions that improve human capabilities and transform entire business functions. We create end-to-end products that surprise and delight out-of-the-box, making complex things easy and hard things possible, with no cloud experience required. We start with customers who embrace the future and build bridges to meet the rest where they are. We pursue ambitious opportunities with conviction, and we are looking for builders who share that mindset.

Amazon Connect is an AI-powered customer experience solution that enables superior outcomes at a lower cost. Since its 2017 public launch Amazon Connect has become an AI leader transforming how organizations of all types interact with their customers.

We have a rapidly growing customer base and an exciting charter in front of us that includes solving highly complex engineering and algorithmic problems. We are looking for passionate and talented Software Development Engineers to join us to innovate on this new service that addresses customer needs to build modern contact centers in the cloud. The position represents a rare opportunity to be a part of a fast-growing business soon after launch and help shape the technology and product as we grow. You will be playing a crucial role in developing the next generation contact center and get the opportunity to design and deliver scalable resilient systems while maintaining a constant customer focus.

As a developer on our team you'll own code end-to-end from design to development and work closely with senior technical leaders within the team and across AWS. You'll have a sound understanding of computer science fundamentals and practical industry experience working across the stack with technology involving modern web, SOA, NoSQL databases, AI, ML, Big Data, and more.

We build backend services for Amazon Connect Amazon's cloud contact center platform used by thousands of organizations worldwide. Our customers range from small businesses to some of the largest enterprises on the planet and the tools we build are used by contact center agents and supervisors every day.

Our team works across multiple areas of the Connect platform owning services end-to-end from design through operations. We're a small close-knit engineering team based in Seattle that moves fast ships often and takes pride in building systems that are reliable and simple to operate.

We actively use AI to accelerate our work. Whether it's writing code, exploring designs, or automating operational tasks, we integrate AI tools into our daily workflows and encourage experimentation with new approaches.

The culture here is collaborative and low-ego. We debate technical tradeoffs openly help each other grow and give engineers the autonomy to own meaningful problems from day one. You'll work alongside experienced engineers who care about craft and who are excited to build tools that make a real difference for contact center teams around the world.

Key job responsibilities

Design develop and maintain highly available scalable backend services that power Amazon Connect's customer-facing features
Own the full software development lifecycle for assigned projects from technical design through deployment and operational excellence
Write clean testable production-quality code (primarily Java) and conduct rigorous code reviews for peers
Collaborate with product managers, UX designers, and partner teams to translate business requirements into technical solutions
Identify and resolve complex technical problems across distributed systems, including performance optimization, fault tolerance, and data consistency
Mentor junior engineers (L4s and interns) through code reviews design discussions and pair programming
Participate in on-call rotations and operational reviews driving improvements to reduce operational burden
Contribute to architectural decisions and technical roadmap planning for the team's services
Write and maintain design documents runbooks and operational documentation

A day in the life

You'll spend your mornings reviewing pull requests and checking service health dashboards. Our team builds the backend systems that power how contact center agents manage customer cases at scale.

Most of your day involves writing code often with AI coding assistants to accelerate development. You'll design APIs, build features, and solve distributed systems problems in Java and TypeScript, deploying to AWS. When you're not coding you'll be in design discussions with product managers and frontend engineers figuring out how to break big customer problems into shippable solutions.

You'll also mentor junior engineers contribute to architectural decisions and take turns on-call (about one week every 6-8 weeks). The customers you're building for are enterprise contact centers some of the largest in the world and the agents who use these tools every day feel the impact of what you ship.
