Role Overview This role is part of a broader enterprise initiative to establish a Data Context Layer (DCL) - a foundational capability designed to provide consistent, reusable, and scalable context across enterprise data products. The DCL is intended to address challenges related to data fragmentation, lack of shared semantics, and inconsistent interpretation of data across systems and products . It establishes a unified layer for representing context, relationships, and meaning, enabling downstream products to operate with greater consistency, interoperability, and intelligence. In addition, the DCL plays a critical role in enabling agentic AI capabilities across the enterprise by providing the structured context and semantic grounding required for intelligent agents to operate reliably. This includes ensuring that agent-driven workflows and decisions are based on consistent, governed, and interpretable data context , reducing risks associated with fragmentation, ambiguity, and lack of control. Within this initiative, we are seeking an SDK / Developer Experience Engineer with strong experience in AWS cloud technologies to design and build the developer tooling, SDKs, and integration experiences that make enterprise context services easy to adopt. This role focuses on creating high-quality developer-facing assets that enable teams to consume APIs, context services, and platform capabilities consistently, securely, and with minimal friction. The ideal candidate has hands-on experience with SDK development, developer tooling, API integration, and cloud-native systems on AWS. Familiarity with data context, semantic systems, ontologies, agentic AI, prompt engineering, and context engineering is preferred, as the tooling and SDKs may support both human developers and AI-enabled workflows.
