Evening Remote Amazon Security Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Application deadline: Jun 2, 2026
Amazon's STORM Red Team (SDO Threat Operations, Research & Monitoring) is looking for a Security Engineer to join our team of offensive security operators. We hack Amazon's services, infrastructure, AI/ML systems, processes, and controls, then work with defensive and service teams to fix what we find and sharpen detection, prevention, and response capabilities across the company.
STORM Red Team is a 10-person team that operates with significant autonomy. We choose our own targets, scope our own engagements, and operate across Amazon (retail, devices, entertainment, healthcare, subsidiaries, and more), partnering with the AWS Red Team when our paths overlap

Our scope is expansive and always challenging, with new business areas and attack surfaces constantly emerging across Amazon. We run multi-week adversary emulation campaigns, purple team exercises, shortest-path assessments, and targeted research efforts. The work ranges from emulating nation-state actors against critical infrastructure to testing whether a financially motivated threat group's public playbook would work against us.

We report directly into SDO security leadership and our work regularly reaches VP and SVP audiences.
This is a fully remote position by design. The team is distributed and operates remotely as a core part of how we work.
We're looking for someone who can independently execute Red Team engagements, build attack paths in complex environments, and communicate findings clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. You'll be working alongside experienced operators who will push you to grow.
Key job responsibilities
Conducting red team engagements throughout Amazon independently, or as part of a team, targeting traditional infrastructure, cloud services, and AI/ML systems.
Creating detailed engagement plans, performing operations, and emulating adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs).
Thoroughly documenting timelines, attack paths, findings/gaps, and recommendations.
Communicating and collaborating with partner teams, service owners, Amazon Security teams, and senior leadership to influence, prioritize, and drive the resolution of discovered security findings.
Performing manual examination of client systems, applications, networks, and AI-powered features to discover weaknesses, and thoroughly documenting high quality exploit chain/proof of concept scenarios/reports for customer consumption.
Assessing the security of AI/ML systems including LLM applications, agentic architectures, RAG pipelines, and model serving infrastructure for vulnerabilities such as prompt injection, training data poisoning, model extraction, and guardrail bypass.
Leveraging AI/ML capabilities to build and enhance offensive tooling, automate security research workflows, and improve engagement efficiency.
Contributing to tooling, processes, documentation, and quality of red team operations.
Helping to recruit and interview, and train/mentor/develop other Red Team engineers.
