About The Position

As part of the AWS Applied AI Solutions organization, we have a vision to
provide business applications, leveraging Amazon’s unique experience and
expertise, that are used by millions of companies worldwide to manage day-to-day
operations. We will accomplish this by accelerating our customers’ businesses
through delivery of intuitive and differentiated technology solutions that solve
enduring business challenges. We blend vision with curiosity and Amazon’s
real-world experience to build opinionated, turnkey solutions. Where customers
prefer to buy over build, we become their trusted partner with solutions that
are no-brainers to buy and easy to use.

We are seeking a dynamic Software Development Manager to join the DCV
organization, leading a team working on the remote desktop protocol and on
peripheral redirection. In this critical role, you will drive software
development across multiple platforms (Windows, Linux, Mac, Web, Android, iOS)
and the supporting infrastructure. Your leadership will balance immediate
customer needs with a strategic vision for the future, requiring exceptional
organization and prioritization skills.

This position offers a unique opportunity to shape the in-session experience for
WorkSpaces users while developing engineering talent. You'll collaborate with
leaders across End User Computing teams to create software that resolves
customer friction points and delivers features customers love. If you excel at
balancing tactical delivery with strategic planning and are passionate about
creating exceptional user experiences, this role offers significant impact and
growth potential.

Your day begins with leading the team through prioritization of customer
requests, feature development, and technical investments. You'll collaborate
with product managers to understand customer needs and translate them into
actionable engineering plans. Throughout the day, you'll communicate your vision
to our collective leadership and coordinate with partner teams to ensure
alignment. You'll mentor engineers, remove roadblocks, and make technical
decisions that balance immediate customer satisfaction with long-term platform
health.
