About the Role

~1 min read

Build AI Workers using AWS Strands, autonomous agents that handle discrete steps in the research chain.
Design and build content pipelines that ingest raw research inputs and transform them into structured, reusable components.
Automate steps in the research workflow (Plan, Collect, Analyze, Author, Publish, Advise) without breaking the sequencing logic that makes automation safe.
Build and maintain dynamic work management automations that route, prioritize, and track research tasks.
Own prompt design and evaluation for production AI systems operating on research content.
Integrate research tools, content repositories, and publishing systems via APIs and middleware.
Translate research workflow requirements from analysts and editors into working technical specifications, then ship them.

8+ years of hands-on software engineering. You build and ship real systems.
Genuine curiosity about agentic AI and knowledge work automation. You think about how reasoning systems handle ambiguous tasks and have strong opinions about where AI earns its place in a workflow.
Practical experience building with AWS Strands or comparable agentic frameworks in production.
Experience building content or document processing pipelines, ingestion, transformation, structuring, and delivery of unstructured or semi-structured content.
Solid automation engineering fundamentals. You know when to reach for an LLM and when a rule-based system or a well-structured script is the right call.
Practical experience with Amazon Bedrock, AgentCore, and MCP server integration.
Proficiency in Python and REST APIs, comfortable with webhooks and middleware.
Ability to work directly with domain experts (analysts, editors, researchers) and translate their process requirements into technical systems.
Comfort operating with significant autonomy in a complex, dependency-heavy environment.
