Open source has been the foundation of Appnovation's work since 2007, and it remains the foundation underneath every AI product the company builds today. Appnovation teams work with organizations in highly regulated industries, including global leaders such as Pfizer, Google and AstraZeneca, to help them adopt AI they can govern and own.

We’re hiring AgentCore Platform Engineers to build the agent-facing layer of the platform. What you build becomes the template other teams copy, so quality and clarity matter as much as speed. We care more about strong AWS fundamentals and real hands-on work with agent frameworks than about whether you’ve used AgentCore by name. Build runtime patterns, memory strategies, orchestration and multi-agent handoffs, and the reference implementations other teams copy.

Memory Strategies: 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.

Legacy Integration: Work with system owners to wrap older or on-premises systems safely, handling rate limits, data mapping and error cases.

Reference Implementations and Standards: 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.

5+ years of software engineering experience, with strong Python (TypeScript is a plus).

Hands-on experience building LLM agents with at least one agent framework (e.g., Solid AWS fundamentals: Clean, well‑tested code that other engineers will read and reuse.

Experience building or running MCP servers in a real environment.

Experience in pharma, life sciences or another regulated industry with data access controls.

You think about security and access control before anything goes live

You pick up new AWS services quickly and learn by building

You work well inside a client team and enjoy helping other engineers succeed
