Not really. They can just use a public key to encrypt ephemeral symmetric keys. The private key is stored inside AWS and is never exposed to the device.

The public key is on the device (which is fine) and that's the key it uses to encrypt the data (if we consider the symmetric key as just a performance optimization)
