Description

AWS Applied AI Solutions (AAIS) is building toward a future where every business innovates with Amazon AI teammates. To get there, we build AI solutions that improve human capabilities and transform entire business functions. We create end-to-end products that surprise and delight out-of-the-box, making complex things easy and hard things possible, with no cloud experience required. We start with customers who embrace the future and build bridges to meet the rest where they are. We pursue ambitious opportunities with conviction, and we are looking for builders who share that mindset.

The mission of Agentic WorkSpaces is to enable AI agents to work the way people do. Across the industry agents are becoming digital workers. Like every team member they need identity, permissions, governance, and a trusted place to do their work. The Agentic WorkSpaces Client team builds the front door to that place: the client software people use to securely access and operate the desktop and web applications their businesses rely on and the software AI agents will use to do the same.

We build the client software that runs on customer endpoints across major operating systems and browsers and we own critical parts of the connection and user experience for Amazon WorkSpaces a highly scaled system that delivers remote desktops and streamed applications to millions of end users every day. We are evolving that same client experience to carry agentic workloads which require secure access, enterprise permissions, governance, observability, and human oversight.

Industry consensus points to a growing share of cloud desktop workloads becoming agentic in the coming years.

We build the client software those desktops are reached through which is exactly why the Agentic WorkSpaces Client team can lead that shift. Today most of the team's work is building and running the clients our users rely on; the agentic share of the roadmap grows from there. Your work includes secure session connectivity, client lifecycle, cross-platform architecture, user experience, performance, software updates, operational telemetry, and integrations supporting human and agentic workflows.
