Computer Software
Responsibilities
Design and implement agentic AI solutions using AWS Bedrock, including Agents, Knowledge Bases, and Guardrails
Build serverless architectures using AWS Lambda, Step Functions, and EventBridge to orchestrate AI agent workflows
Design and engineer sophisticated prompts for agentic AI systems that can plan, reason, and execute multi-step workflows
Develop prompt architectures that enable AI agents to use tools, APIs, and external resources effectively
Create and refine chain-of-thought, tree-of-thought, and ReAct (Reasoning Acting) prompting strategies
Build evaluation frameworks to measure agent performance, reliability, and safety
Collaborate with ML and software engineers to integrate prompt strategies with agent frameworks (LangChain, Bedrock AgentCore) and leveraging Bedrock agents/services/foundational models
Optimize prompts for accuracy, efficiency, cost, and latency in production environments
Implement guardrails and safety measures to ensure responsible agent behavior
Document prompt patterns, best practices, and design principles for the broader team
Stay current with the latest research in agentic AI, prompt engineering, and LLM capabilities
Design and build highly complex software solutions (specifically 2 years of experience with AWS serverless development and 4 years of experience on a programing language such as Java or Python)
Program well-designed, efficient code independently
Collaborate with designers, developers, and product owners to build solutions
Clearly communicate team wide progress and identify blocking processes/patterns that hold a team back
Participate in paired programming and code reviews with juniors to expand the team’s collective knowledge and understanding of software engineering
Complete independent research to refine best practices and present work to peers
Turn complex ideas into manageable pieces of work to complete as part of a product team
Coach and mentor prompt engineers
Provide technical guidance to leadership so that solutions are built with innovation and sustainability in mind
Learn the business drivers of a product and help drive the technical direction of a product to fulfill the desired vision
