Applied AI means AI that is put to work to solve real-world problems and attain practical goals within the constraints of running a business. Our team leverages Amazon’s expertise to build applied AI solutions that businesses love and trust for their day-to-day success.

We're a 2 pizza team moving fast to build a new agentic UI product and design system from the ground up. If you are scrappy and bias for action is your favorite LP, you will fit right in. You will lead a group of strong self-driven engineers transitioning to becoming an AI native organization. Our ambition is to achieve 10x more leverage by scaling our software development through AI. You must be excellent at driving results, anticipating bottlenecks and making quick trade-offs to keep the team unblocked. Our products are designed for business users and we obsess over ease of use, so you must be comfortable traversing across backend and frontend.

We're prioritizing the following experience:
  • Strong mechanisms for rigorous execution in planning, designing, developing and delivering enterprise software
  • Experience managing engineers across multiple disciplines in an Agile environment
  • Knowledge of personalization systems, recommendation engines, or dynamic content generation
  • AWS service launch / production operational experience desired
