Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada Amazon Full time $137,800

Help us protect not only the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud computing environment but all of our customers as well Since 2006, our great team at AWS has been enabling our customers to bring great ideas to life in ways that aren't possible in traditional IT environments.

With AWS you can flexibly harness compute, storage, security, and other services from across the globe as your business demands them.

AWS Security is on the cutting edge of many security issues for a wide variety of platforms and technologies including cloud services, Internet of things (IoT), identity and access management, mobile devices, virtualization and custom hardware, all operating at massive scale.

Similarly, our highly collaborative team is committed to each team member's growth as our business grows.

AWS Security is looking for an Application Security Engineer to help validate that our services, applications, and websites are designed and implemented to the highest security standards.

You will be responsible for analyzing the security of applications and services, discovering and addressing security issues, building security automation, and quickly reacting to new threat scenarios.

You will have the opportunity to learn from, and be mentored by, those who are building and securing our cutting-edge services.

You are expected to be strong in multiple domains and provide significant contributions to the AWS IT Security team and to multiple groups throughout Amazon.

You are expected to develop elegant solutions to complex business problems and apply appropriate technologies while following security engineering best practices.

You are also expected to mentor more junior engineers and be a security thought leader for the organization.
You will foster constructive dialogue and seek resolution when confronted with discordant views.

Engineers in this role are expected to participate fully in the planning of the AWS IT Security team's work and constantly seek opportunities for process improvement.

You should also have a deep understanding of at least one specialty for which they are a sought out resource (both within AWS Security and by groups throughout Amazon), while having an understanding of the application of information security in a broad range of technical areas.

You will need a combination of troubleshooting, technical, and communication skills, as well as the ability to handle a mix of disparate tasks which may include project and software development work.

This role will provide career growth opportunities as you gain new security skills in the course of your duties.
