KF8 (AZW3) doesn't support automatic hyphenation. Some people use the Hyphenate This! calibre plugin to add soft hyphens that are supported. Another alternative is conversion to KFX format using the KFX Output calibre plugin.

The Amazon Kindle Publishing Guidelines provides some (incomplete) information about what does and doesn't work in Kindle books.
