Identity Services are the guardians of Amazon’s most sacred asset - customer trust! The stakes for us at Amazon have never been greater as Amazon expand more into customers’ daily lives. We enable Amazon businesses to scale by providing secure authentication and authorization solutions in the most possible friction-less manner. We are moving towards the vision where our clients no longer have to choose between sophisticated security and user convenience. Our guiding principle for adaptive authentication is simple; if we suspect a risk in our multiple risk-layer checks, which run quietly in the background, we will deploy the most secure and appropriate available solution, and if we do not, we will let the customer use Amazon unimpeded.
We are looking for a software engineer to join our Authorization team that is in charge of user and session lifecycle management. We are looking for engineers who are passionate about creating new products, features, and services from scratch while managing ambiguity and the pace of a company where development cycles are measured in weeks, not years. If this sounds interesting to you, apply and come chart your own path at Amazon.
