In this role, you will attack Amazon’s services, applications, and websites to discover security issues and report them to our internal technology teams.

Engineers in this role must show exemplary judgment in making technical trade-offs between short-term fixes and long-term security and business goals. You will demonstrate resilience and navigate ambiguous situations with composure and tact. You will be expected to provide thought leadership for the organization as you discover, invent, and innovate throughout the course of your duties. Above all else, a strong sense of customer obsession is necessary to focus on the ultimate goal of keeping Amazon and its customers secure.

Key job responsibilities
  1. Conducting high quality application penetration tests independently, or as part of a team
  2. Creating detailed engagement plans and thoroughly documenting findings, gaps, and remediation recommendations
  3. Contributing to team tooling, innovation, and process improvements
  4. Communicating and collaborating with partner security teams, service owners, and senior leadership to influence and prioritize the resolution of discovered security findings
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

  2. Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent
  3. 3+ years of any combination of the following: threat modeling experience, secure coding, identity management and authentication, software development, cryptography, system administration and network security experience
  4. 3+ years of experience in a penetration testing or similar offensive security role
