## About the role

Building this experience introduces a new class of engineering challenges. How do you ground an LLM's response in relevant, up-to-date information from a customer's AWS environment while maintaining strong security boundaries and low latency? How do you orchestrate multi-step agentic workflows that can reason, retrieve information, invoke tools, and take actions reliably and safely? How do you evaluate AI systems where quality cannot be measured by traditional software testing alone?
