Are you passionate about security, compliance and risk management? Do you have experience with global cybersecurity standards and regulations? Have you performed security-compliance assessments of large enterprises? Do you see cybersecurity as a business enabler? If you answered YES to these questions and enjoy working in a rapidly changing environment which is as challenging as it is rewarding, this position may be for you.
Amazon Buy with Prime and Multi-Channel Fulfillment organizations are looking for a highly motivated and experienced security specialist ready to partner across Amazon tech and security groups to assess and secure our services and data.
This security specialist will drive programs focused on providing multiple cross-cutting capabilities such as security at launch, compliance at launch, remediation support, and risk management. This is a hands-on role that will take ownership of security assessments, risk analysis and remediation processes, and help drive the evolution of future strategy and operations. You will collaborate closely with internal security teams, development teams, program managers, and other partners across Amazon to continually refine how we reduce risk and delight our customers.
You will act as a key member of the team responsible for ensuring security is embedded early into Amazon dev-teams including performing security-compliance assessments, working with tech teams on practical and scalable remediation, raising security awareness, mentoring your peers, and enabling security by design. You will work independently and navigate through ambiguity when program strategy is not defined, and deliver results. You will also be able to earn trust to establish credibility and maintain strong working relationships with all peers and stakeholders (Security, Legal, Business Development, Internal Audit, Fraud, Physical Security, Developer Community, etc.).
We operate in a hyper-growth environment where priorities shift quickly, so a passion and discipline around security and delivery is critical. You will tackle challenging situations every day and, given the size of this initiative, you will collaborate with various levels across Buy with Prime, Multi-Channel Fulfillment, AWS and other Amazon orgs.
This is a role within a team that prioritizes a strong work-life balance, mental and physical health, and that will support you and help you grow further as a seasoned security professional.
