Austin, Texas, United States Amazon Full time
About the Role

Amazon Security is seeking a Senior Technical Program Manager to join our Defensive Security Operations team. This role will support security excellence initiatives, analyzing operations, identifying opportunities, and managing the execution of projects and programs.

This role is responsible for implementing and driving program management for large-scale, complex, global information security events and initiatives, communicating with leadership, and transforming nebulous needs into actionable security solutions.

You will partner with service, engineering, and security teams, bringing process and rigor to the response and non-response focused programs.

This requires managing and balancing multiple priorities simultaneously, and at times, supporting response operations with our incident response and vulnerability management teams.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Develop and execute project plans with an impact across Amazon business units to drive security excellence across vulnerability management, incident response, and secure software development.
  • Lead initiatives aimed at identifying and eliminating security risks for Amazon across subsidiaries and business lines
  • Demonstrate the ability to provide both structured and creative thinking in a dynamic, evolving, multi team-based environment
  • Demonstrate the ability to communicate effectively at multiple levels of management, building trust across the organization, and demonstrating discretion with sensitive information
  • Show ownership and leadership skills in coordinating projects across multiple teams, driving them to successful conclusion while building strong, lasting relationships with both internal and external customers
  • Be comfortable working in a fast-paced, ever-changing environment while driving teams to complete goals
  • Demonstrate the ability to break abstract goals into attainable, measurable work items
  • Manage a cross-functional process to translate the desired customer experience into a logically sequenced and optimized program

About the Team

The Defensive Security Operations team is a group of highly-skilled technical and non-technical program managers that sits between two of Amazon's high-impact security teams: incident response and vulnerability management.

Given this placement, no two days are exactly the same, but our mission of supporting the continuous operational developments of these two teams to protect Amazon's data never changes.
