Job Summary

What if you could shape how AI agents and marketers work side by side to create manage and deliver content on a global scale AWS Marketing is shifting from tool-assisted to AI-native and it wont happen from a product silo. It happens when someone embeds directly with the teams doing the work sees how content actually moves through the system and rebuilds it with AI from the inside out.

We are looking for a Senior Forward Deployed Engineer to embed directly with Product Managers and marketing teams across AWS. Youll turn their highest-friction workflows into AI-first systems where AI agents can reinvent how work gets done. Your role: figure out what the future-state workflow needs to look like design how agents and humans collaborate within it wire the systems together and drive the effort from prototype to production. You are the connective tissue between whats possible and what actually ships.

The work spans the full content lifecycle - web publishing creative production localization brand operations. One week you may be wiring an agent into a creative workflow the next redesigning how global content flows across AWS properties through AI-enabled translations the next prototyping a system that turns a brief into a publishable asset with a human in the loop at exactly the right moments.

This is not a traditional role. You put working software in peoples hands to validate ideas in hours not weeks. You are comfortable with MCPs orchestration frameworks and tool integrations and you have the product judgment to know whats worth scaling versus whats just technically a world where everyone can build with AI you bring great taste: the ability to distinguish great from good through deep customer empathy structured problem framing and relentless focus on adoption as the finish line.

60% building 40% leading. Youll have executive sponsorship and engineering partners to scale what works. Your prototypes wont die in a backlog; theyll become platform investments that serve hundreds of marketers and touch millions of customer-facing assets.

Key job responsibilities
Build to learn. Take identified opportunities and turn them into working prototypes using model APIs agent frameworks and lightweight code. Compress the distance from idea to conviction.

Design the human-agent experience. Define where humans stay in the loop at which steps and with what controls. Shape how marketers discover and interact with agents and how agents collaborate with each other through protocols context passing and trust signals.

Turn validated prototypes into production architectures. Partner with engineering to move from this works to this ships. Defining the technical path integration points and data contracts that make a prototype durable.

Own agent quality in production. Define evaluation frameworks set quality thresholds monitor drift after model or data changes and drive continuous improvement based on real usage.

Build the scaffolding that accelerates the team. Create reusable patterns agent templates integration blueprints and reference architectures that make PMs and engineers faster at shipping AI-native workflows.

Evangelize whats possible. Run workshops and provocations that help stakeholders experience the future through working artifacts not decks. Turn skeptics into co-owners by putting working software in their hands.
