Job summary
Come join a security team who focuses on ease of use and delighting our customers to build security services, used across all of Amazon, that secure our internal systems and networks.
At Amazon Web Services (AWS), Security is our highest priority. Our team is responsible for inventing, scaling, and operating the foundational security services used across Amazon to secure our systems, processes, and data. We build authentication, authorization, and enforcement services that are used across our diverse internal teams as they build and deliver services for our customers. We support all of Amazon.com and AWS with our services, and need solution-oriented thinkers who are passionate about solving problems at scale, thinking through edge cases, and iterating quickly to delight our customers.
Key job responsibilities
In this role you will join an established and rapidly growing DevOps software team who is maintaining an existing security service while expanding the deployment, features, and capabilities to address significant new initiatives across the company. We are looking for full stack developers, as well as specialized skills, working on N-tier systems, written in various languages on authorization, authentication, data analytics, security audit, security response, configuration management, and access monitoring services. We have multiple open positions and would like to talk with you about specific roles that might match your preferences and experience.
We have roles available in Virginia (Herndon and Arlington), Seattle, San Diego, Vancouver, Chicago, and Boston.
A day in the life
You'll love this team if you are passionate about security, and curious how we design security into the cloud and Amazon infrastructure from the minute a server hits our data center through how we securely administer and operate services. At Amazon, we are looking for engineers who know how to think through a problem, be creative, and who think outside the box in ways that benefit our customers. The intense focus we have on our customers is why we are one of the world's most beloved brands - it is part of our company DNA. Our Software Development Engineers (you!) are obsessed with customer trust, building solutions that address real world risks, and thinking deeply about how humans use security systems to build elegant security that users love to use. We are looking for people who bring diverse perspectives, ask a lot of questions, and challenge the status quo. We are a team of out-of-the-box thinkers, who iterate quickly, and think deeply about how to build secure systems that are easy to use.
