Appnovation is hiring AgentCore Platform Engineers to build the agent-facing layer of its platform. The role focuses on agent runtime, memory, orchestration, governed tools and integrations, and enabling teams to build and operate agents safely.

Responsibilities

Design short-term and long-term memory patterns using AgentCore Memory, and guide teams on when to use which
Build patterns for planning, tool use, supervisor/worker setups and handoffs between agents, with clear boundaries and fallbacks
Expose internal REST APIs, Lambda functions and legacy services as agent tools through AgentCore Gateway, using OpenAPI specs and Lambda targets
Design and build Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers for systems that need custom integration, with clean tool definitions and schemas
Set up authentication and authorization for agents and tools (AgentCore Identity, OAuth, IAM) so agents only reach what they’re allowed to
Work with system owners to wrap older or on-premises systems safely, handling rate limits, data mapping and error cases
Build production-quality reference agents, starter kits and a repeatable process for adding, versioning and reviewing tools
Build in evaluation, Bedrock Guardrails, contract tests and safety checks so agents and tools behave predictably before going live
Run walkthroughs, write docs and support the teams onboarding to the platform
