AWS Applied AI Solutions (AAIS) is revolutionizing the future of work and enterprise technology with AI solutions that improve human capabilities and business outcomes. Our vision is to empower every business to innovate with Amazon AI teammates that make intelligent operations effortless. We blend curiosity with Amazon's real-world experience to build opinionated, turnkey solutions that work right out of the box. This spans customer engagement (Connect Customer AI), healthcare (Connect Health), supply chain and demand planning (Connect Decisions), high-volume hiring (Connect Talent), scientific discovery (Bio Discovery), physical retail (Just Walk Out), end-user computing (Amazon WorkSpaces), cloud workforce development (AWS Training and Certification), and AI-powered cloud operations (AWS Support). If you want to build AI that runs in production serving hundreds of millions of interactions, where correctness, latency, and failure-mode ownership are first-class concerns, this is the team. ### What You’ll Do This is a rare chance to own and ship finished AI solutions — not building blocks, not platform layers — at enterprise scale. You'll architect end-to-end systems where thousands of autonomous agents orchestrate in real time, make consequential decisions in production, and collaborate with humans in ways no one has built before. The problems here are unlike anything else in the industry. How do you guarantee correctness in non-deterministic systems? How do you orchestrate thousands of concurrent agents with heterogeneous latency profiles and zero established consensus model? How do you design an AI teammate that onboards to a business the way a new hire would — building trust, learning context, knowing when to escalate? These are research-grade challenges being solved in production, at scale. The patterns don't exist yet. You're inventing them. The systems you build here won't sit in a backlog — they ship to real customers: healthcare systems managing millions of patient interactions, pharma companies compressing drug discovery from years to weeks, enterprises orchestrating global supply chains in real time. You'll have direct influence over technical choices, minimal layers between you and decisions, and the opportunity to define what AI-native engineering looks like in practice. ### Key job responsibilities Deliver strategic technical projects and design new software systems at scale Lead architecture and engineering strategy for enterprise AI solutions across multiple domains Mentor and guide engineers while solving complex technical challenges hands-on Work cross-functionally with Principal Engineers and teams across AWS Applied AI Solutions Scout and recruit top technical talent, actively growing the engineering community Drive a strong engineering excellence and operational culture across all products and teams Shape technical direction for systems critical to shipping finished AI solutions to enterprise customers Balance technical expertise with strong analytical skills to make informed architectural decisions ## At a glance - Posted by the employer: Jun 17, 2026 - First seen by OpenNash: Jul 10, 2026 - Last checked: Oct 18, 2026 - Listed for: 123 days - Location: US, WA, Seattle[Apply on Amazon’s careers site →](https://www.amazon.jobs/en/jobs/10452091/principal-senior-distinguished-engineer-aws-applied-ai-solutions) ## More jobs at Amazon ### [ADC Engineer II, Amazon Dedicated Cloud Engineering - Support Engineering](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/6e2bf60cf0bce0914d3d/) US, WA, Seattle ### [ADC Engineer, S3 ADC, S3+Glacier Unique Regions](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/623546f687d50bfbe4dc/) US, WA, Seattle ### [Acquisition Business GTM/BD Lead, AGS North America](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/2d97c848bf5005837e30/) US, WA, Seattle ### [Analyst, Network Strategy and Performance, Network Strategy and Performance](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/b92e15f5be52bd37c801/) US, WA, Seattle ### [BI Engineer I, AWS DC Global Network Delivery](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/043e18cceb05486a90d3/) US, WA, Seattle ## Similar jobs at other companies ### [Distinguished Engineer, Networking](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/equinix/jobs/eaa7e83192d7667b5b37/) Equinix · Redwood City, California, United States ### [Distinguished Engineer - Distinguished Engineer, Data Foundation](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/intuit/jobs/904d9d94b55c3f2d1306/) Intuit · Mountain View, California ### [Distinguished Engineer, Networking](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/equinix/jobs/dabb1fdd139e0317b3f8/) Equinix · Toronto, Ontario, Canada +4 more ### [Principal / Sr. Principal Cloud & DevSecOps Engineer – Azure/AWS (TS/SCI)](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/northrop-grumman/jobs/69d2ea26ffc7fe81505a/) Northrop Grumman · United States-Ohio-Wright-Patterson AFB ### [Lead Software Engineer - AWS/SRE Engineer](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/jpmorganchase/jobs/b82e6943190d67b8219e/) JPMorganChase · OH, United States [Jobs in Seattle, WA](/locations/us/wa/seattle/)[Jobs in Washington](/locations/us-wa/)[Operations jobs](/functions/operations/) OpenNash lists jobs from employers’ own careers sites and does not handle applications.
