Content Engineer Jobs in Seattle, WA (NOW HIRING)

AWS Technical Content Experience (TCX) is looking for a manager to lead our Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) Reviews and Audits team within the Content Excellence organization. In this role, you will lead a recently-formed team of technical content practitioners to establish a quality operation: reviewing hundreds to thousands of contributions per week, fixing what falls short, and surfacing patterns that help our content systems get better over time.
The right person for this role has strong editorial and operational instincts in equal measure. You know what great content looks like, and you notice quickly when something is off. You can see patterns across a high volume of reviews and know how to package that signal into feedback that drives improvement in upstream systems and processes. You build operations that deliver consistently, with SLAs that are realistic, staffing models that don't burn people out, and the flexibility to absorb spikes without breaking.
Key job responsibilities
• Lead and develop a team of content reviewers; establish the operational programs, rhythms, and culture needed to evolve a new function
• Design staffing and capacity models that run lean day-to-day but scale for seasonal spikes without burning out the team
• Establish and maintain SLAs that balance business commitments, risk mitigation, and team sustainability
• Identify patterns in content review results and deliver clear, actionable feedback to the teams managing content systems and governance programs
• Define and track operations metrics that tell a clear story about the value the team is contributing to customers and AI agents consuming content
• Partner with peer and stakeholder teams to operationalize quality standards and rubrics into repeatable, measurable review workflows
• Collaborate with product and engineering teams to ensure content review findings drive upstream system improvements
• Document and present quality and risk assessments to senior leaders, articulating accepted and mitigated risks across the content ecosystem
• Hire and grow the team as the function evolves to meet rapidly evolving needs of the business
