About The Position

At Amazon we're working to be the most customer-centric company on earth, and
that includes protecting our customers and their data. To get there, we need
exceptionally talented, bright, and driven people. Do you have a passion for
architecture, security, software design, and innovative technologies? Do you see
security, compliance, and risk management as business enablers? Amazon’s
Internal Audit team is seeking a technology auditor to perform assessments of
Amazon Web Services. You will have the rare opportunity to dive deep into the
internal architecture of AWS services to assess operational risks and security
posture.

The ideal candidate is interested in diving deep into a variety of complex
architectures and ensuring AWS services are designed and operating securely. You
will support the planning, scoping, execution, and reporting based on identified
risks. Assessment scope may include identity and access management, data
security/privacy, service monitoring, release management, and service
availability.

You will bring independent and objective points of view to provide support to
service teams and their partners to identify opportunities for control
improvements to mitigate risks, ensure compliance and improve operational
performance. In this capacity, you will gain valuable exposure to many areas of
our global business.

This position will challenge your current understanding of AWS services. You

and encouraging innovative and pragmatic solutions to complex problems. In
addition, you will have solid business judgment, enthusiasm for risk management,
