About the job

The future of software development is autonomous. AWS is building Kiro Autonomous Agent—a frontier agent that independently tackles development tasks, maintains context across interactions, and continuously learns from its work. This isn't just another AI tool; it's a fundamental shift in how software gets built and maintained. We're looking for engineers who want to shape this transformation. You'll work alongside exceptional talent solving novel problems at the intersection of AI and software engineering. The challenges are unique: building systems that operate autonomously, retain context across complex workflows, and improve through experience—all while meeting AWS's exacting standards for scale, reliability, and security.

Responsibilities

Contribute to the design, implementation, and maintenance of large-scale distributed systems. Apply rigorous engineering principles to develop infrastructure that is reliable, performant, and resilient under production conditions. Develop an environment where agent and tools will run.
