Amazon’s Legal Department is looking for a talented attorney to support Amazon Web Services (AWS), one of the world’s fastest growing technology companies. AWS provides cutting edge cloud computing services and IT infrastructure trusted by millions of customers around the world, including the fastest-growing startups, largest enterprises, and leading government agencies. To learn more about AWS, visit https://aws.amazon.com.This role will provide a blend of transactional support and product counseling. You'll structure, draft, and negotiate complex agreements, including hardware development, technology licensing, supply, procurement, and manufacturing deals. You'll also advise business teams on new product and feature launches, on regulatory and compliance questions, and on strategic matters involving the hardware, technology, and facilities behind specialized security solutions.
