We are building a new AI-native security product from the ground up. This is a 0-to-1 effort: no legacy codebase, no inherited architecture, no predefined constraints. You will own the technical direction, write the foundational code, and ship directly to customers as part of a small, high-autonomy team.
Strong software engineering fundamentals, you write clean, testable, production-grade code
Comfort operating in ambiguity, this is a new product with open design questions, not a mature service with established runbooks
Experience building systems where both speed and correctness matter
Genuine interest in security, AI/ML, or ideally both
Bias toward solving hard problems
A desire to own outcomes, not just contribute to them
This is a rare opportunity at Amazon: a small team, a greenfield product, genuine ownership, and a problem space at the intersection of AI and security that is only growing in importance. If you want to look back in two years and say "I built that," this is the role.
Key job responsibilities
Design and build core product infrastructure from scratch
Own end-to-end delivery of features, from system design through production deployment
Work directly with customers and security researchers to shape product direction
Build AI/ML capabilities into the product's foundation, not as an afterthought
Operate what you build, with full ownership of availability and performance
