Software Development Engineer, Devices Software & Services

The Amazon Devices Software & Services team is looking for a talented Software Development Engineer to join a high-velocity, specialized team. This is not a traditional framework or infrastructure role - we are building a new delightful customer experience that will define how millions of users worldwide interact with their technology - making it more proactive, intuitive, and invisible.

We are looking for a Software Development Engineer to join a high-velocity product team. This isn"t about maintaining existing frameworks; it"s about using the latest agentic software development tools to fundamentally redefine the software engineering lifecycle. You will build delightful experiences where the device disappears into the background, and the AI proactively manages the customer"s world - from coordinating complex family schedules and "agentic" shopping to creating seamless transitions between your favorite devices at home and on the go.

Key job responsibilities

• Invent New Paradigms: Move beyond traditional voice UI to build "Ambient Intelligence" experiences that span Alexa, Fire TV, and mobile/wearable surfaces, focusing on proactive assistance rather than reactive commands.
• Agentic Engineering: Revolutionize the way we ship code by integrating LLM-based coding agents and autonomous development workflows to achieve unprecedented engineering velocity.
• Redefine "The Assistant": Build the logic that allows Alexa to handle multi-turn, complex reasoning tasks - like planning a week of calorie-specific meals or autonomously booking a repair service through third-party integrations.
• Rapid Innovation: Operate in a fast-paced environment where you will prototype, test, and deploy features that leverage multimodal inputs (camera, audio, and documents) to create personalized customer magic.
• Cross-Surface Continuity: Ensure that a customer's experience is persistent and context-aware beyond the device boundaries - whether they are at their desk using Alexa.com, in their living room with Fire TV, or on the go with a wearable.

A day in the life

In our team, you will get to build new products and features from the ground up. You will define and build features and tools used by thousands of developers for building for millions of customers.
