Build CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure as code; contribute reusable components, engineering standards, automated quality gates, security guardrails, and operational runbooks.
Create and maintain technical design artifacts covering application functionality, architecture, data flows, interfaces, integrations, security controls, and operational requirements.
Provide post-production support, troubleshoot complex issues, optimize performance and cost, and continuously improve deployed solutions.
Collaborate effectively in an Agile environment, communicate technical trade-offs clearly, and mentor junior team members.

What do you need to succeed?

Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Software Engineering, Data Science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
7+ years of professional software engineering experience, including 5+ years building and operating solutions on AWS.
Hands-on experience delivering AI, Machine Learning, or Generative AI solutions in production environments.
Strong Python development skills and experience designing, testing, and integrating RESTful APIs and event-driven services.
Practical experience with Amazon Bedrock and core AWS application services such as AWS Lambda, Amazon API Gateway, AWS Step Functions, Amazon EventBridge, Amazon S3, Amazon DynamoDB, and Amazon Aurora or Amazon RDS.
Experience building RAG solutions, including document ingestion, chunking, embeddings, retrieval, grounding, evaluation, and vector databases or vector-search services.
Experience developing AI agents or tool-using workflows, including orchestration, state or memory, safe tool access, error handling, and human approval points.
Working knowledge of AWS security and operations, including AWS IAM, AWS KMS, secrets management, logging, monitoring, tracing, and incident support.
Experience with Git-based development, automated testing, CI/CD, and infrastructure as code using Terraform, AWS CDK, or AWS CloudFormation.
Understanding of containerization and cloud deployment patterns using Docker and at least one of Amazon ECS or Amazon EKS.
Strong communication, collaboration, analytical, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to explain technical decisions to varied stakeholder groups.

Preferred qualifications
