To get there, we build AI solutions that improve human capabilities and transform entire business functions. We create end-to-end products that surprise and delight out-of-the-box, making complex things easy and hard things possible, with no cloud experience required. We start with customers who embrace the future and build bridges to meet the rest where they are. We pursue ambitious opportunities with conviction, and we are looking for builders who share that mindset. Amazon WorkSpaces has protected and empowered enterprise work for over a decade and we are now reimagining what a workspace is. We are building Agentic WorkSpaces: a platform where the workspace itself is an active partner in how you work not just infrastructure that delivers applications. Today more than a million users rely on WorkSpaces daily; tomorrow those WorkSpaces will host AI agents alongside humans—agents that code, troubleshoot, analyze, and act on behalf of their users governed by the same identity and security policies as the people they serve. We compete with Microsoft Citrix and Omnissa and we intend to leapfrog them by building the workspace that was designed for the agentic era not retrofitted for it. Agentic WorkSpaces' Watchtower team is the layer that makes this possible from the inside of every WorkSpace: telemetry, health, secure communications both inbound and outbound, Agentic AI platforms for qualification of operating systems instances and applications. Our mission is to provide robust monitoring automation and operational capabilities that ensure the reliability and performance of WorkSpaces Instances. We are looking for a Software Development Engineer to design build and operate the services that secure and maintain WorkSpaces for humans and increasingly for the AI agents that work beside them across every supported OS and identity provider. You will own end-to-end delivery of features and systems within Watchtower - from design through deployment and operations - holding a high bar for availability latency and security. You are customer-obsessed technically deep and energized by solving hard problems. You think big about what the workspace of the future looks like - a unified agent shipping to two platforms from one codebase an identity model that treats human and agents as first-class citizens and autonomous troubleshooting that resolves issues before users notice - and then you build the systems to get there. You thrive in ambiguity make sound trade-off decisions with incomplete information and hold yourself accountable for results that matter. You want to solve challenging problems in operating systems identity AI and desktop platform engineering at a scale that impacts more than a million users daily. Key job responsibilities • : In our team you will indulge your love of diving deep into complex technical problems driving incremental system optimizations and raising the bar for operational excellence and development practices. We will look to you to help enhance the skills and expertise of those around you. About the team Amazon values diverse experiences.

We pioneered cloud computing and never stopped innovating — that's why customers from the most successful startups to Global 500 companies trust our robust suite of products and services to power their businesses. We value work-life harmony. Achieving success at work should never come at the expense of sacrifices at home, which is why flexible work hours and arrangements are part of our The description is cut here.
