  • 4+ years of non-internship experience in scripting, programming, and security code review in common programming languages.
  • Knowledge of at least two programming languages such as Scala, Java, Python, C/C++, or Go.
  • Experience applying threat modeling or other risk identification techniques.
  • Experience with security in service-oriented architectures/microservices and web services.
  • Experience as a mentor, tech lead, or leading an engineering team.
  • Experience in identifying industry-based security vulnerabilities, attack patterns, and remediation techniques.

Responsibilities

  • Own the security strategy for the AWS Marketplace third-party catalog.
  • Identify systemic risks across the catalog and lead remediation campaigns.
  • Investigate and respond to security findings, vulnerabilities, and incidents.
  • Partner with Application Security to drive threat modeling and secure design reviews.
  • Define and raise security standards for sellers and internal teams.
  • Mentor engineers on secure development practices and cloud security.
  • Represent Marketplace security in cross-AWS forums.
