Tyler W.
Principal AI & Automation Engineer building intelligent systems
Hey there, I'm Tyler, with 10+ years hands-on software AI/ML and data engineering experience, I build and scale intelligent systems that bridge the digital and physical worlds - from autonomous robots in fulfillment centers to foundation-model-powered agents optimizing global operations. Currently, I serve as Principal Tech Product Manager, AI & Robotics at Amazon, where I lead the engineering and product strategy for the core AI infrastructure powering our fulfillment network. My team focuses on bringing foundation models and custom agent frameworks and services into production to solve Amazon's most complex operational challenges - driving efficiency and intelligence at global scale. Before transitioning into AI development, I helped launch and scale multiple robotics systems that now operate across Amazon's network from warehouse automation to perception and mobility platforms that redefined how machines and people collaborate in physical space. Prior to Amazon, I helped build and scale two venture-backed e-commerce startups, where I led product and technology. Those experiences shaped a very practical approach to technology: scalable systems, measurable outcomes, and engineering tightly aligned with real business impact. Technical Skills: 1.
