We are looking for an experienced Support Engineer with the ability to deep-dive into complex creative-technical workflows, invent and simplify with a high degree of ownership, and deliver a world-class support experience for the creators building the future of entertainment.

As a Support Engineer on the AI Studios Engineering team within Prime Video and Amazon MGM Studios, you will be the single point of contact for all customer intake on Nara, our AI-native content creation platform that empowers animators, filmmakers, and storytellers to produce professional animation and live-action/VFX content featuring world-class intellectual properties at unprecedented speed and scale.

This is a uniquely high-impact, high-autonomy role. You will serve creators who operate under tight production timelines and expect a premium, frictionless experience. You will balance delivering the white-glove support that entertainment professionals demand with building scalable mechanisms including AI-powered agents that act as delegate support engineers to multiply your capacity without sacrificing quality. You will be the strategic bridge between creative users and engineering teams, exercising judgment on when to shield and when to connect, ensuring engineers develop genuine empathy for the creators they serve while staying focused on building.


Key job responsibilities
Strategic Intake & Operations
As the single-threaded leader for Nara platform customer intake, you will own the end-to-end support experience for Prime Video’s elite creative talent (animators, VFX artists, and filmmakers). You will define SLAs and KPIs where time-to-resolution directly impacts production delivery timelines.

White-Glove Service at Scale
You will provide a "red carpet" experience high-touch, polished, and attuned to the urgency of live production. To balance quality with capacity, you will build scalable mechanisms, including intelligent triage, automated routing, and self-service playbooks, deciding precisely where the human touch is irreplaceable.

Bridge to Engineering
Serving as the interface between creators and AI Studios, you will translate workflow blockers into actionable technical requirements. You will influence Software Engineering and Product roadmaps by exercising judgment on when to shield teams from "noise" versus when to foster direct creator-engineer empathy.

AI-Driven Evolution
Operating as a solo lead, you will scale your impact by architecting a support model powered by AI agents. Using LLMs and agentic frameworks, you will codify platform knowledge into automated delegates that act as support engineers, expanding coverage while maintaining a premium creator experience.


A day in the life
As Nara’s Lead Support Engineer, you’ll start by triaging global intake solving AI rendering or VFX pipeline issues for marquee Amazon MGM Studios productions. You’ll provide high-touch support before switching to optimize the AI agents you’ve built, refining automated playbooks based on overnight performance data.

Mid-day, you’ll translate creator friction into technical requirements during syncs with Applied Scientists and SDEs. Your afternoons involve building extending agent capabilities or authoring knowledge base content. You’ll close by reviewing SLA dashboards and providing leadership with proactive experience readouts, ensuring platform gaps are addressed well before they impact critical production milestones
