Software Development Engineer, AWS Security
Arlington, Virginia
Each day, hundreds of thousands of developers make billions of transactions worldwide on our cloud. They harness the power of Amazon Web Services (AWS) to enable innovative applications, websites, and businesses. The AWS Security team owns security for all of these services offered by AWS, including EC2, S3, and many others. Our team works with AWS teams to solve security challenges at massive scale. We earn trust by building services that meet the security goals of our customers, from compliance to analysis. We dive deep into security technologies such as new authentication systems, hardware security components, cryptography, system hardening, and massive-scale audit analysis.
We are looking for highly intelligent software and systems professionals to raise the security bar for cloud computing. You should enjoy working on complex system software and delivering meaningful security protections on behalf of our customers. We do not simply produce good software here at AWS Security... we produce disruptive, history changing innovations.
Our team creates services that continuously scan, identify, and mitigate security threats against AWS. We process immense quantities of data from millions of resources to keep hundreds of AWS services secure. If you have a passion for data analytics, building systems of systems, and security we'd love to hear from you.
Key job responsibilities
As a Software Development Engineer, you will leverage Amazon technology (Lambda, Kinesis, DynamoDB, etc.) to solve AWS Security problems at staggering scale. You will be central to raising the bar on our software architecture and practices - your design skills will be key. You will share ownership of our operational excellence, ensuring our system is properly tuned and has appropriate alarms for warning or error conditions. You will help drive our working backwards processes, inventing and simplifying on behalf of our customers.
A day in the life
Amazon has a fast-paced environment where we "Work Hard, Have Fun, Make History." We follow an agile development approach that emphasizes empowerment of the team. You will collaborate with AWS services to design and develop new security features using AWS technology, deploying software through our large automated systems, and operationally supporting your newly deployed software. You will work with security engineers and data scientists to apply radically new approaches to complex, multifaceted problems in network and application security.
About the team
You'll be part of a world-class team in a fast-paced environment that has an entrepreneurial vibe. This is an opportunity to operate and engineer systems on a massive scale, and to gain top-notch experience in cloud computing. You'll be surrounded by people who are smart, passionate about cloud computing, and believe that world class service is critical to customer success.
