Full Job Description
Do you want to shape how a global consulting organization builds software in an AI-first world? As Senior Consultant, Agentic Delivery Acceleration, you'll be the hands-on builder who turns the AI-Driven Development Lifecycle (AI-DLC) into the training, tooling, and agents that thousands of AWS Professional Services consultants use on customer engagements. AI-DLC is our methodology for how humans and AI work together to deliver software. It isn't a traditional software development lifecycle (SDLC) with an AI assistant added on. It defines what AI executes, what humans validate and own, and where quality gates sit when agents do most of the building. In this role, you'll write both the playbook and the code that brings it to life.
Key job responsibilities
- Build AI-DLC into the AI coding agents and frameworks used on customer engagements. Contribute steering files, hooks, skills, and prompts that embed AI-DLC phases, quality gates, and human accountability. Build agents that check and improve how well delivery agents follow the methodology, and create tested guidance and guardrails for running AI-DLC in customer environments
- Build modular, role-based AI-DLC training (labs, workshops, and assessments). Run early cohorts, measure what lands, and take it from beta to global rollout, using the same terminology at every level
- Track the capabilities AI-DLC depends on (such as context management, review agents, and security workflows) and how well common delivery tools support each one. Feed field evidence back into how the methodology and its terminology evolve
- Serve as hands-on AI-DLC subject matter expert on selected customer engagements and mentor a growing network of regional champions
- Publish blog posts, customer stories, and open-source contributions, then grow into tech talks, executive briefings, re:Invent sessions, and customer workshops that help establish AWS as a recognized voice in AI-native delivery
A day in the life
You'll split your week between building and teaching. One morning you might tune an agent's steering files after reviewing how it handled a customer engagement. That afternoon you might run a training cohort and gather feedback on what worked. You'll also join selected customer engagements to see the methodology in action, and bring what you learn back into the code and the curriculum.
