AWS Specialist Technology Team (STT) is seeking a Software Development Manager to lead the Specialist AI Tooling engineering team - the group building AI-native, agentic solutions that are fundamentally transforming how thousands of AWS technical specialists and field team members develop expertise, get matched to customer engagements
how AWS service teams consume customer feedback at scale. If you want to build production agentic AI systems that impact thousands of users daily - not research prototypes, but real AI agents solving real problems - this is the role for you. You will own and grow a team of Software Development Engineers responsible for building brand new and enhancing existing four interconnected products that collectively power the intelligence layer of AWS's specialist ecosystem: - AWS Learning Agent - A new generative AI-powered, agentic learning system that replaces static training paths with personalized, cross-domain skill development for every builder in the AWS technical field. Powered by a structured skill graph, persistent learner profiles
the Specialist Knowledge Vault, the Learning Agent delivers adaptive learning journeys via a custom console, in Kiro, Claude, Quick and wherever builders work. - Intelligent Routing Agent - A new AI-driven routing engine that matches 136K+ annual specialist requests to verified domain experts using validated skill profiles rather than manually maintained lists - reducing resolution time (currently 7.72 days) and enabling precision matching at scale. - Technical Field Community (TFC) Hub - The platform powering 46 Technical Field Communities, managing member engagement, competency tracking, learning path orchestration
community-driven content curation across AWS's specialist network. - Service 360 - A GenAI summarization and prioritization engine that aggregates customer feedback signals (PFRs, SpecReqs, SFDC Opportunity data) into categorized, prioritized service recommendations - automating what was previously a manual closed-loop feedback process to influence the roadmap for AWS public service teams.
