Description

AWS is looking for a Security Engineer to join the Cloud Response team in Australia.

The team manages the security and availability of AWS Cloud services. We operate on the ‘AWS’ side of the Shared Responsibility Model to ensure “Security of the Cloud” and to protect our customers. This role requires engineers to work tactically with both internal and external stakeholders to solve security challenges at massive scale, and to think strategically to develop and implement changes to drive automation, scalability and continuous progress for the organization.

Key job responsibilities

• Supply oversight of in-flight security issues.

• Triage new incoming issues to determine the level of risk they present to AWS, and then accordingly prioritise its remediation in conjunction with the impacted service team.

• Communicate the state of these issues to various audiences, both technical and non-technical, at various levels of seniority (up to and including AWS’ Chief Information Security Officer).

• Escalate issues to senior AWS leadership if you feel your issues are not being treated at the correct pace due to their impact to ensure that we are putting customers first.

• Explore building and improving our tooling to make your own life easier, and at the same time, sharing that benefit with all our engineers globally.
