AWS Security is a global team tasked with keeping the cloud safe. To help deliver for customers on this promise, the AWS Bug Bounty team is seeking a security engineer with strong security analytic skills to join our team!
The primary responsibility of this role is to leverage your experience and internal knowledge of AWS systems to effectively triage a diverse set of incoming reports which can pertain to any of AWS's 200+ services. Technical dive deep and curiosity are a way of life on this team in order to establish the true severity of a report and what defense in depth mechanisms need to happen beyond just an immediate patch.
Automation is the key to scaling and innovation at AWS and in this role you will write automation to reduce the load on humans; everything from developing ticketing, reporting and trend identification automation.
AWS Bug Bounty has a diverse set of customers: service owners and engineers, security leadership as well as our external crowd of researchers

Strong communication skills are required when providing excellent customer service for our customers, especially when growing our external crowd. As an engineer on the team, you will be expected to help deliver insights to leadership and assist service teams in prioritizing and remediating difficult security problems.
The development of the AWS researcher community is paramount to ensuring the success of our program and of our customers. As such we seek to earn researcher trust by being as transparent as possible with our responses to their reporting and our reward structures

As part of this team you will be expected to develop external messaging for both researchers and our own customer base. Above all else, a strong sense of Customer obsession is necessary to focus on the ultimate goal of keeping Amazon and its Customers secure with the highest priority.
This role will provide you with challenging opportunities, both technologically and as a leader to grow AWS's Bug Bounty Program into the best on planet Earth.
Key job responsibilities
- Researching, reproducing, and responding to security issues reported through the bug bounty program
- Technical Escalation
- Managing relationships with external security researchers working with AWS's bug bounty program

- Driving improvements to team tooling, automation, and processes

A day in the life
Our mornings typically start by looking at the queue of submitted reports that have already undergone initial triage by our third party partners

We single out reports that need urgent attention and then do a deep dive: reproducing, root causing and where appropriate extending the findings in the report to demonstrate maximum impact. Once done we coordinate with the internal stakeholders to drive the report until remediation.
We maintain a close partnership with other security teams across Amazon to surface reports and trend data that are relevant to their mission.
