Software Dev Engineer, AWS Infrastructure Security, AWS InfraSec Security Products and Services

Amazon • Seattle, WA

About The Position

We are building the next generation of physical security automation for AWS data centers worldwide. Our team develops software that accelerates how security devices — think cameras, access control systems, and intrusion detection — are provisioned, monitored, and managed across hundreds of global sites.

As an SDE on this team, you will primarily work on Skyward, our security device lifecycle management platform, with a focus on Zero-Touch Provisioning (ZTP) — a program that automates the end-to-end provisioning of physical security devices from construction drawings through to operational readiness. You will also contribute to Red Zone Passport, the application stack that supports red zone security workflows — including mobile validation, access control, and device compliance tooling used by security teams on the ground. This work directly impacts the speed at which new AWS data centers come online.
