Join us in building the future of AI-powered software development with Kiro, an intelligent development environment that revolutionizes how developers code.

This is an opportunity to be part of a new team launching innovative AI products from the ground up.

The role offers high visibility with AWS leadership and the chance to shape products that will transform how businesses leverage AI.

Key job responsibilities

- Work backwards from customers to define what "operational excellence" means in a world of AI agents
- Build and execute go-to-market strategies, including positioning, launch planning, and strategic partnerships
- Partner deeply with engineering to ship at the pace this market demands, with the technical depth to make the right tradeoffs
- Engage customers and partners at the executive level to shape the roadmap and build strategic relationships across the AI ecosystem

Skills and AI tools this role asks for

AI Agents

Questions you could be asked

How do you decide when an AI agent can act on its own versus asking for approval first?
Describe a typical day in a role like this one: which parts run through AI directly?
If you removed AI from this role, what would be left, and how do you decide what still needs a human?

Adapt your resume

List these exact terms on your resume: AI Agents. An applicant tracking system matches the wording, not the idea.
Attach one line of real, concrete experience to at least one of them — a tool named with nothing behind it rarely survives a human read.
Show where AI is part of your daily process, not a one-off project — this role expects it to be a running habit.
