Description
AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. In other words, we’re the people who keep the cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help.
You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.
The Infrastructure Security Team is responsible for the security and risk management of the AWS Infrastructure. We build systems that detect, assess, and mitigate risk across the global infrastructure and are accountable for keeping the Amazon Infrastructure secure and compliant with customer requirements. The Infrastructure Compliance Team is looking for a Security Engineer to join our dynamic, outcome-driven team. The successful candidate is an owner who can deliver through high performing, diverse teams and who understands all parts of security, software development, deployment, and operations. You must possess strong technical networking, supply chain security and/or data center compliance background, strong verbal and written communication skills, be self-driven, demonstrate high impact and influence across teams, and deliver high quality results in a fast-paced environment. We’re looking for leaders who can lead through challenges and seek to shed light on ambiguity. If that is you, Amazon is the place to be as we solve hard problems, make history, and have fun.
Key job responsibilities
• You will aid in the development, assessment, and analysis of security outcomes for AWS Infrastructure (networking, supply chain security and/or data center compliance) in accordance with NIST, FedRAMP, ISO and AWS standards.
• As a member of the Infrastructure Security Compliance organization, you are expected to be the subject matter expert on regulatory, compliance, legal implications on security risks and opportunities.
• Identify and drive mitigation of security risks through formal, deep dive assessment activities
• Lead in the identification and application of remediations and mitigation techniques, including the development of monitoring and reporting capabilities for continued compliance.
• Lead compliance related discussions both internally, with stakeholders and customers, and externally, representing Infrastructure holistically in audit/regulatory exams.
• You will assist technical teams in resolving security issues and concerns and providing contextualization as well to how compliance with various standards and frameworks is achieved.
