TL;DR · Software Development Engineer, Leo AI Foundations

As a Senior Software Development Engineer on the Amazon Kuiper Manufacturing Enterprises team, you will design and implement globally distributed systems to enable Leo's satellite constellation, ground gateways, and customer terminals to achieve near real-time operational intelligence. Your daily tasks include building full-stack contributions across AI/ML layers, data infrastructure, and front-end/back-end components to create intelligent agent systems that monitor and optimize system health and performance. You will leverage AWS technologies and best practices to develop agentic workflows for anomaly detection, predictive maintenance, and automated issue resolution. Additionally, you will implement natural language interfaces and reinforcement learning-based agents to enhance operational efficiency and reliability across the Leo network, ensuring low-latency, highly scalable architectures that provide critical internet services to customers worldwide.

What you'll do

  • Deliver full stack contributions to build end-to-end operational intelligence systems.
  • Design and implement multi-agent AI systems for monitoring and optimizing Leo's network health.
  • Develop intelligent agents that reason across distributed systems to solve complex issues autonomously.
  • Implement reinforcement learning-based agents to optimize system performance under various conditions.
  • Build natural language interfaces combining real-time telemetry with historical data for context-aware interactions.
  • Design scalable S3-based Data Lakehouse components with automated metadata management and lineage tracking.
  • Implement globally distributed vector database infrastructure ensuring sub-100ms retrieval times.

What we're looking for

  • Extensive experience in full-stack development including front-end, back-end, data infrastructure, and AI/ML.
  • Proficient in designing and implementing multi-agent AI systems for real-time monitoring and optimization.
  • Expertise in building natural language interfaces and RAG systems with real-time telemetry integration.
  • Strong background in reinforcement learning and developing intelligent agents for distributed system coordination.
  • Experience in scalable S3-based Data Lakehouse design, metadata management, and automated data classification.
  • Skilled in implementing globally distributed vector database infrastructure with sub-second retrieval times.
  • Knowledge of hybrid search strategies combining dense vectors with sparse representations for semantic retrieval.
