Software Development Engineer II, AFX

The AWS Field Experience (AFX) team builds go-to-market tooling that gives the AWS sales and marketing organization superpowers - helping them focus on customers instead of manual processes. As a Software Development Engineer II on AFX, you will design and deliver distributed systems, data pipelines, and LLM-powered automation that operate at AWS scale. Large language models are redefining how we support go-to-market functions, and this is your chance to help shape that transformation. You will work across the full software development lifecycle, writing high-quality code, contributing to system design, and collaborating with partners across the AWS partner business, enterprise support, and solutions architecture teams.

Key job responsibilities

- Design and build distributed services and APIs that power go-to-market tooling for one of the largest field sales organizations in the world, covering the full lifecycle from design through deployment and operations.

- Develop and optimize data pipelines that synchronize account data across systems at scale, improving data quality and coverage for the AWS field organization.

- Implement LLM-powered workflows and automation that reduce manual effort for the sales field and generate actionable insights from complex business data.

- Participate actively in code reviews, providing constructive feedback that raises engineering standards, and mentor other engineers through documentation, training, and pairing sessions.

- Identify root causes of operational issues and drive permanent fixes, while collaborating with stakeholders across the AWS partner business, enterprise support, and solutions architects to ensure your solutions meet real customer needs.

A day in the life

You start by reviewing pull requests from teammates, offering detailed feedback that helps everyone grow. Mid-morning, you dig into a feature that connects account data across systems, writing code and pairing with a colleague to work through a tricky integration. After lunch, you join a design discussion with solutions architects about how an LLM-powered workflow can reduce manual steps for the field team. Later, you investigate an operational alert, trace it to its root cause, and ship a lasting fix. You move between focused coding and cross-team collaboration with partners in enterprise support and the partner business.
