Full Job Description
Key job responsibilities

- Own the front-end architecture for the service across both the AWS Management Console and the new off-console web experience, setting the technical direction and standards others build against - while staying hands-on to design and ship the most complex, high-impact pieces yourself.

- Partner with product managers, UX designers, backend engineers, and science partners to shape product direction, turning ambiguous problems into clear front-end technical strategy and design.

- Define how we build AI-native experiences - establishing the patterns for agentic and conversational workflows (such as streaming responses and real-time updates) and ensuring interfaces are responsive, accessible, and performant at scale.

- Establish and evolve the reusable component libraries, design-system patterns, and front-end architecture that keep the experience cohesive across surfaces, simplifying systems as the product grows.

- Set the bar for end-to-end quality across the team: testing strategy, automated UI testing, CI/CD, and front-end operational excellence.

- Lead code and design reviews for your team, and influence front-end technical decisions with partner teams across AWS.

- Mentor and grow other front-end engineers, helping define the engineering culture and raise the technical capability of the team.

A day in the life

You'll help build a brand-new AWS service from the ground up, owning customer-facing features end to end across our in-console and off-console experiences. Because the product is AI-native, you'll work hands-on with agentic and chat-driven workflows, experimenting with patterns that don't exist yet. Expect plenty of ambiguity, fast iteration, and real influence over the product and customer experience - with teammates who give thoughtful code reviews and a manager invested in your growth. No two days look the same this early, and your work reaches customers in days to weeks, not quarters.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

- 4+ years of non-internship professional front end, web or mobile software development using JavaScript, HTML and CSS experience

- 5+ years of front-end developer creating prototypes or wire-frames for enterprise web applications or workflows experience

- Experience developing with MVC/MVM frameworks (e.g. React.JS, AngularJS, Vue)

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

- Knowledge of web services technologies such as SOAP, HTTP, WSDL, XSD, and REST

- Experience in a broad range of software design approaches and common UX patterns.
