[AWS China Introduction] Amazon Web Services came to China in 2013, and has been relentlessly investing and expanding our infrastructure and business since then. Amazon Web Services launched its China (Beijing) Region (operated by Sinnet) in September 2016 and its China (Ningxia) Region (operated by NWCD) in December 2017. In 2019, Amazon Web Services added a new region in Hong Kong, making China the only country with three Amazon Web Services regions aside from the U.S. In 2022, Amazon Web Services launched Local Zone in Taipei. Amazon Web Services has also established an AI lab in Shanghai and two IoT labs in Shenzhen and Taipei. The Amazon Web Services Partner Network has thousands of Partners in China. Amazon Web Services has supported over 10,000 local startups and has provided cloud skills training to over 700,000 talents. Amazon’s first two utility-scale renewable projects—a solar farm and a wind farm—are also generating clean energy to the country’s grid.
Build the future of AI innovation alongside AWS's most forward-thinking customers. The AWS Prototyping and AI Customer Engineering (PACE) team transforms ambitious ideas into working Generative AI and Agentic AI prototypes in days and weeks - not months - and we need world-class builders who can turn customer visions into reality. If you're passionate about full-stack development, love experimenting with AI technologies, and thrive on shipping prototypes that demonstrate what's possible with large language models, autonomous agents, and multi-agent systems, this is your opportunity to make history.
In this role, you'll work hands-on with customers to architect and build production-ready AI prototypes using the latest Generative AI technologies - from prompt engineering and RAG architectures to function calling, autonomous agents, and complex multi-agent orchestration. You'll leverage AI-driven development tools to write code faster, exploring agentic workflows where AI systems can reason, plan, use tools, and collaborate to solve complex problems. You'll be a full-stack developer comfortable with multiple languages and frameworks, combining modern application patterns with AWS AI services to rapidly deliver solutions that showcase the transformative potential of Generative AI and Agentic AI. This isn't traditional consulting - you'll be writing code, making architectural decisions about agent behaviors and LLM integrations, and creating breakthrough experiences that influence how organizations globally approach AI adoption.
Position requires travel - generally 25%
Key job responsibilities
Your morning starts with team standup where you and fellow Prototyping Architects align with your Technical Program Manager on customer momentum, breakthrough patterns, and hard problems at agentic AI's edge. Then into deep coding work building transformative agentic solutions, orchestrating multi-agent patterns integrated with AWS AI services. You make architectural decisions that drive measurable business outcomes: faster resolution, smarter recommendations, autonomous scaling. Mid-morning brings a strategic conversation with customer leadership on how agentic architectures power their business. Afternoon: architecting a retail shopping assistant with specialized agents, collaborating with Design Technologists. You document edge cases and patterns that become blueprints for future engagements. As day closes, you're context-switching between production code, architectural decisions, and translating innovation into strategic language for leadership. You're building solutions that illuminate the path for how enterprises adopt transformative AI.
