Job description

As part of the AWS Applied AI Solutions organization, we have a vision to provide business applications, leveraging Amazon’s unique experience and expertise, that are used by millions of companies worldwide to manage day-to-day operations. We will accomplish this by accelerating our customers’ businesses through delivery of intuitive and differentiated technology solutions that solve enduring business challenges. We blend vision with curiosity and Amazon’s real-world experience to build opinionated, turnkey solutions. Where customers prefer to buy over build, we become their trusted partner with solutions that are no-brainers to buy and easy to use.

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.

Are you interested in leading a team of software engineers tasked with building on an established AWS service where you have full control of the charter and where to take the business? Do you enjoy working in cloud computing, Big Data, machine learning, and customer engagement? Do you enjoy the challenge of building and managing innovative services? Do you want to make an impact at a global scale? Then you should join our team!

AWS Customer Profiles (CP) is an always-on AI teammate that helps enterprises address any customer's need before they ask, enabling businesses to deliver exceptional experiences and better lifetime value at every touchpoint. CP uses AWS Entity Resolution, another tier-1 service, to perform matching and enrichment of data. Identity & Enrichment is the charter that takes ingested data and turns it into a trusted, resolved entity worth acting on. As the leader of this charter, you will be responsible for defining the vision, priorities and leading a team of engineers to deliver on your vision.

Key job responsibilities

You need to be creative, responsible, and able to dive deep into emerging serverless AWS technologies. You will think about business opportunities, operational issues, architectural diagrams, scalability, security, and the customer perspective in the course of a single conversation. You have a deep mastery of programming languages, distributed microservices, serverless computing, and performance engineering. Someone who makes the team both productive and fun to work in. Excited to learn from others while bringing your own novel capabilities and perspectives. Our team members thrive in a hands-on environment where everyone actively participates in product definition, technical architecture review, iterative development, code review, and operations. Our customers are innovators, and you will have the chance to work with them to understand their challenges and design new offerings. Together, we’ll shape not just our own products, but the direction of the industry.

Why AWS
