Description
Customer experience is at the heart of all we do at Amazon, as we strive to be Earth's most customer-centric company. Amazon Customer Service (CS) is at the forefront of customer experience, working relentlessly to provide customers a convenient, high quality, and delightful experience across all of our CS channels in every interaction.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 Sr. Software Development Engineer to lead 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.
The ideal candidate is a strong technical leader who thrives in ambiguity, can translate a bold vision into a concrete system architecture, and is passionate about building high-performing teams. You will partner closely with science, product, and operations leaders to deliver AI-powered capabilities that let customers pick when help arrives, proactively solve their problems without waiting in queues, and turn service failures into loyalty-building moments. This is an exciting opportunity to build transformative technology that directly impacts the experience of millions of customers.
Key job responsibilities
- Lead the design, architecture, and delivery of AI-native systems that orchestrate the customer journey across Amazon's global Customer Service network
- Architect real-time journey orchestration systems that continuously guide each customer to the optimal resolution path, ensuring the least amount of effort and highest likelihood of success.
- Build and develop a high-performing engineering team by assisting in hiring and mentoring software development engineers
- Partner with Applied Science teams to develop and integrate AI-native intelligent solutions that shape demand patterns across channels and time, maximizing CSA productivity and network efficiency.
- Drive technical roadmap execution from proof-of-concept through production, balancing speed of delivery with long-term architectural quality
- Collaborate cross-functionally across Network Solutions and partner teams to integrate platform capabilities into the broader CS ecosystem
- Establish operational excellence practices for production services, including on-call, incident response, and continuous improvement mechanisms
About the team
Network Solutions is on a mission to transform Amazon Customer Service from a cost center into a growth driver by building intelligent, adaptive systems that anticipate demand, match customers to optimal experiences, and continuously improve service quality.
