Job summary

Amazon Security is seeking a Software Development Engineer to design and deliver scalable security services used by engineers across Amazon. You will work on ambiguous, high-impact problems with senior engineers, scientists, and security experts, delivering cloud-based features and developer-facing tools.

You will mentor others, own quality and testing, and contribute to on-call operations while advancing security standards across a global platform.

Qualifications

3+ years of professional software development experience (non-internship).
2+ years of design or architecture experience for large-scale systems.
1+ years of designing and developing large-scale, multi-tiered, distributed software applications, tools, systems, and services using C#, C++, Java, or Perl.

Responsibilities

Design and build well-architected services and tools that raise the security bar for engineering teams across Amazon.
Use your problem-solving skills to work through ambiguous, high-impact problems in collaboration with engineers, applied scientists, and security specialists, applying Amazon's principles of thinking big, inventing, and simplifying.
Deliver end-to-end features that combine cloud back-end services on AWS, data pipelines, and modern developer-facing experiences.
Partner with teams across Amazon to integrate our capabilities into the tools, workflows, and services that builders already use every day, so security guidance meets developers where they are.
Bring strong engineering judgment, clear communication, and a sense of ownership to challenging and ambiguous problems, and drive them to a high-quality outcome in a fast-paced environment.
Provide guidance to and mentor other engineers on the team, and help grow the technical skills and security intuition of the people around you.
Own the quality bar for your area, including thoughtful design reviews, robust automated testing, healthy code coverage, and reliable CI/CD pipelines.
Participate in the operational excellence of the services you build, including monitoring, on-call, and continuous improvement based on real production learnings.
