Software Development Engineer II, Kumo-AMS AWS Comply

We are building AI cloud services for the most demanding regulated industries, tackling some of the most challenging compliance use cases deployed worldwide. Are you interested in designing and building the next generation of GenAI-powered compliance solutions — highly resilient, massively scalable, and built to make compliance consultants dramatically more productive? If so, we'd love to have you join our team as a Software Development Engineer II (SDE II)!

Key job responsibilities

• Design, develop, test, and deploy cloud-native services that power GenAI-driven compliance solutions.
• Deliver high-quality production code with comprehensive automated testing and CI/CD pipelines.
• Own features end-to-end, from design through deployment and operational excellence.
• Participate in an on-call rotation to support production systems.
• Contribute to technical design discussions, sprint planning, backlog grooming, and architectural reviews.
• Mentor junior engineers through code reviews, pairing sessions, and technical guidance.

A day in the life We use Kanban — a continuous-flow method where work items move through stages as capacity allows — or two-week sprints, depending on the project. During sprint planning, everyone receives assignments from the backlog. Our daily stand-up covers what was done yesterday, today's focus, and any blockers. We hold regular backlog grooming sessions to prioritize, refine, and estimate upcoming work items. Sprints end with a retrospective to reflect on what worked and what to improve. For features with significant scope or complexity, team members write a design document that the team reviews and approves before development begins.
