The team is small and emphasizes high ownership, working closely with Applied Scientists and product teams to enhance advertiser experiences. This greenfield opportunity allows for significant impact on how AI transforms advertising. The ideal candidate will thrive in a fast-paced environment and contribute to making AI agents smarter and more reliable.

Requirements

  • 3+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
  • 2+ years of design or architecture experience for new and existing systems
  • 1+ years of experience as a software development engineer or in a related role
  • 1+ years of experience designing and developing large-scale software applications using C#, C++, Java, or Perl
  • 1+ years of Object Oriented Design experience
  • Experience programming with at least one software programming language
  • 3+ years of experience in the full software development life cycle
  • Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent

Responsibilities

  • Develop orchestration systems that coordinate multiple specialized AI sub-agents for complex advertising workflows
  • Build identity, authorization, and permission frameworks for scoped access
  • Implement feedback signal pipelines to capture expert judgment for model improvement
  • Partner with Applied Scientists to integrate reinforcement learning into production systems
  • Design and operate evaluation systems to measure recommendation quality and enforce quality gates
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define integration contracts and onboard new consumers
  • Own system reliability, observability, and performance for agent infrastructure serving multiple advertiser accounts

Benefits

  • Employees at Amazon are often offered comprehensive health benefits—including multiple medical plan options (no pre-existing condition exclusions, 100% covered in-network preventive care), dental and vision plans, a 24/7 medical advice line from day one, expert second-opinion services, and broad mental-health support with several free counseling sessions (including pediatric). Financial wellness typically includes a 401(k) with company match (up to 2%), Restricted Stock Units (equity), FSAs, an emergency savings program, product and partner discounts, and even college-savings and home-purchase programs. Overall, the package is designed to support employees and their families’ health, finances, and day-to-day life.
