Job Description

DESCRIPTION

The Global Services, Security (GSS) team, a part of Amazon Web Services, leverages the expertise and ingenuity of our builders to establish scalable security solutions for both internal and external customers that drive business outcomes. Our goal of securing the world’s workloads and building a brighter future for humanity requires us to focus on reliable delivery of bar raising security outcomes and investment in security mechanisms and automation on behalf of our customers.

Security is our highest priority at AWS. As an AWS customer, you benefit from an environment built to meet the requirements of the most security-sensitive organizations. As an Global Services, Security (GSS) team member, you will help secure that environment for our internal and external customers while working on cutting edge security products for a variety of platforms and technologies, all operating at massive scale.

We are looking for an experienced security leader to join the Global Services, Security (GSS) team. As a security leader, you will own building and managing a team of security engineers and leaders, fostering a strong team culture. You and your team will be responsible for reviewing and testing our new services before release, partnering closely with our development teams to produce innovative and secure solutions. We are looking for a leader that is highly passionate about the potential of cloud computing and building a high performing security team.

Security Managers at Amazon have a track record of delivering high quality technology products and services in a hyper-growth environment where priorities shift quickly. You should know how to prioritize, communicate clearly and compellingly, and understand how to drive a high level of focus and excellence with a strong team. AWS in general, and GSS in particular, operates at very large scale and demands high standards, so a passion and discipline around security and delivery is critical. A high level of ownership and accountability is a must.

Key job responsibilities
* Provide strategic leadership and direction for the security engineering team to ensure effective security solutions aligned with business needs
* Oversee the design, development, implementation, and maintenance of the organization's security infrastructure and tools
* Assess security risks, establish mitigation strategies, and develop technical roadmaps
* Build, lead, and develop a high-performing security engineering team with the right mix of skills
* Define team goals, provide coaching, and foster a culture of innovation and collaboration
* Partner with AWS security teams and development team to understand requirements and integrate security seamlessly
* Communicate security strategies, project status, and performance metrics to executive management

Why AWS

Our team affords employees options to work in the office every day or in a flexible, hybrid work model near one of our Amazon offices.
