Full Job Description
Within CS, Network Solutions is responsible for designing, planning, and operating the world's largest customer service network - building intelligent, adaptive systems that anticipate demand, match customers to optimal experiences, and continuously improve service quality. We are transforming CS from a manually operated, reactive model into an AI-native ecosystem that makes CS a growth driver and competitive advantage for Amazon.

We are seeking a Software Development Engineer in the Customer Journey engineering team, building the next generation of customer service channel experiences, giving customers visibility, choice, and control over how and when they connect, and eliminating the wait entirely. Today, when customers need a human, their only option is to enter a queue and wait, with no commitment on when they will be helped, leading to broken journeys where customers abandon, retry, and many silently disengage for good. This leader will design and build the AI-native systems that turn customer service from a queue you wait in into a promise Amazon keeps - orchestrating the journey across every channel to guide each customer to the optimal resolution path, all operating in real-time at massive scale.

- Collaborate with experienced cross-disciplinary Amazonians to conceive, design, and bring innovative products and services to market.

- Ability to design and code the right solutions starting with broadly defined problems.

- Work in an agile environment to deliver high-quality software.

- On-call rotation to support the services owned by the Software team

- Peer code reviews
