Job summary

Amazon Development Center U.S., Inc. in Pasadena, CA is hiring a Software Development Engineer to build AI-native systems that accelerate quantum device research and fabrication.

You’ll design data infrastructure, integrate ML models, and create workflows that connect scientists, engineers, and AI. You will own the reliability, scalability, and on-call health of the platforms, partner with researchers and hardware teams, and contribute to the Device Lifecycle team’s technical direction through

Qualifications

• 3+ years of non-internship professional software development experience.
• 2+ years of non-internship design or architecture experience.
• 3+ years of Object Oriented Design experience.
• Bachelor's degree or foreign equivalent in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field.

Responsibilities

• Design and build data lakes and pipelines that unify experimental, fabrication, and metrology data from heterogeneous sources into a single, queryable platform for scientists and engineers.
• Develop AI-native workflows that automate the experiment-analysis-recommendation cycle: ingest results, run ML models, surface insights, and propose next steps with minimal human intervention.
• Build LLM-powered tools and autonomous agents that allow researchers to query, visualize, and reason over fabrication and experimental data using natural language.
• Partner directly with research scientists, process engineers, and hardware teams to understand their problems deeply and translate research needs into working software.
• Implement ML-driven analysis systems (e.g., automated defect detection, yield prediction, process optimization) that operate on live fabrication data.
• Design and build recommendation engines that evaluate design-of-experiment tradeoffs (cost, time, performance) and surface actionable suggestions to research teams.
• Own the reliability, scalability, and operational health of the systems you build, including monitoring, alerting, and on-call support.
• Contribute to the technical direction of the Device Lifecycle team through design documents, architecture reviews, and code reviews.
