Worldwide Events

In July 2025, I moved to the Worldwide Events org, which orchestrates Amazon's largest retail events like Prime Day, Black Friday, and Cyber Monday.

AI Agent Platform

I joined to help build AI agents that internal teams use to plan and run these events. Having just spent a couple years building AI-powered experiences in Alexa Shopping, I was able to hit the ground running.

Evaluation Framework

One of my first contributions was advocating for and integrating an agent evaluation framework, building on what I'd designed in Alexa Shopping. When someone changes a prompt or updates a tool, the framework shows you what got better and what got worse. Without it, you're flying blind.

Strands Agents SDK Migration

I led the migration to the Strands Agents SDK on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore. The old way of hooking APIs up to agents involved a ton of boilerplate for every endpoint. Strands' @tool decorator pattern let me eliminate thousands of lines of scaffolding code and cut the time to connect an API to an agent from about a week down to a day.

As part of this, I built support for streaming responses from Bedrock.

API Design

I also reworked how our APIs were structured for agent consumption. The original design used big, coarse API calls that either overflowed the model's context window or ate so much of it that the model started hallucinating. I split them into smaller, focused endpoints so agents could make several targeted calls and piece the results together. Much more accurate, much more reliable.

Agent-to-Agent Orchestration

I've been collaborating with partner teams on connecting our agent framework with theirs, enabling agent-to-agent orchestration across the org. This is still in progress.
