Sells products online and rents cloud computing
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.
We are building the data and metrics foundation that our AI systems depend on. This role owns the readiness of the data engineering designs, pipeline and the BI Engineering (BI) metrics/semantic layer the trustworthy, well-defined, low-latency source of truth that every AI system consumes to deliver high-quality insights to end users.
You are the owner of the data supply chain for AI: clean, governed, well-modeled, fast-serving data and certified metrics. AI experiences including our conversational insights agent are built directly on the foundation you own. You'll partner closely with the teams building those experiences, giving them the data contracts, certified metrics, and latency guarantees they need to succeed, and closing the data and metric gaps that stand between a good answer and a great one. Your impact shows up everywhere AI touches data: the more reliable, well-defined, and fast your platform, the better every insight our users receive.
Key job responsibilities
Own data engineering readiness pipeline reliability, freshness, schema/data contracts, and the transformation layer that turns raw data into AI-consumable data products.
Own the BI metrics & semantic layer drive consistent, certified metric definitions (single source of truth) so AI systems and dashboards compute the same numbers the same way.
Guarantee high quality, low latency, set and hold SLAs for data freshness, accuracy, completeness, and query/serving latency that AI consumers require for real-time insights.
Define the AI-consumption interface data contracts, certified metric catalogs, retrieval/RAG-ready structures, and APIs the conversational agent (and future AI consumers) build against.
Partner tightly with the conversational-agent team as a primary internal customer; align roadmaps, close data/metric gaps that block agent quality, and establish feedback loops on where the agent's answers fail due to underlying data.
Establish governance metric certification process, data quality monitoring, lineage, and ownership so trust in the platform scales.
Prioritize the roadmap across pipeline modernization, metric coverage, and latency/serving improvements, balancing foundational investment against consumer needs.
Write crisp technical product docs (PRFAQs, one/two-pagers, data-contract specs) and drive alignment across Data Engineering, BI, Science, and the AI-application teams.
A day in the life
As a Technical PM bridging the gap between data and AI, you act as the critical connective tissue translating high-level business goals into scalable data architecture. You collaborate with business stakeholders and AI/ML Scientists to turn abstract requirements into concrete features, training datasets, and real-time data needs. Simultaneously, you partner with Data and BI Engineers to design low-latency feature stores, map data schemas, and standardize the business metrics conversational agents use to make decisions. Your focus remains entirely on building a robust, high-performance data foundation layer, ensuring upstream pipelines seamlessly power downstream AI logic.
About the team
Our team owns the Analytics, BI dashboards, and ML models that drive AWS Support operations across customer experience, operational efficiency, tooling, and security. We act as the strategic bridge within the organization, partnering directly with operations managers, leadership, and central support functions to deeply understand their day-to-day challenges.
From there, our team of AI/ML Scientists, Data Engineers, and BI Engineers translate those requirements into scalable data architectures, robust metrics, and automated systems. Ultimately, we build and maintain the high-performance data solutions that our internal stakeholders rely on to optimize global operations

Amazon runs the largest online store in the United States and rents cloud computing to businesses and governments through Amazon Web Services. AWS pioneered renting computing power over the internet, and Amazon built its own delivery network to get orders to customers quickly. Shoppers buy from Amazon and from independent sellers on its store, and Prime members pay a subscription for fast free shipping, streaming video and music, and other perks. AWS rents out computing power, storage, databases, and AI tools so companies can run software without owning servers, and Amazon also makes Kindle e-readers and Echo speakers with the Alexa assistant. Jeff Bezos founded Amazon in 1994, and it is based in Seattle, Washington.
