Description
Amazon Foundational Security Services is looking for a leader to join our team working on our Access Management software systems. We provide authorization control plane and data plane software to teams across Amazon. We are in the process of transforming how Amazon does access management, and we need a leader who has experience running large-scale systems, inventing and simplifying solutions to complex problems, and operating with a sense of urgency to rapidly solve challenges for our customers. In addition to transforming our authorization services to leverage attribute based access control (ABAC), we are also on the leading edge of solving access control challenges associated with AI agents and platforms.This is a Sr Manager role in the Amazon Foundational Security Services (AFSS) organization. AFSS provides security software for internal use cases across Amazon including authentication, authorization, identity management, access management, and infrastructure security services. Our team works with businesses across Amazon, including AWS, Retail, Alexa, Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), Leo Satellite program, Whole Foods, and our Games, Media, and Entertainment divisions.
You will love this role if you bring a delightfully dissatisfied approach to the status quo. You love challenging the way it’s always been done, and finding creative ways to move faster. You love to experiment, iterate rapidly, and create high performing teams that can ship quickly (and safely) to production. You focus on automation, and adopting AI assistants, to build speed into your software lifecycle without compromising quality. You will enjoy working with diverse businesses across the enterprise, and identifying extensible solutions that unblock these businesses by providing building-block security capabilities. While you will work in a security domain, you don’t need to be a security expert on day 1. We need a leader with deep experience at rapid software prototyping and development, who can learn about the security business as you iterate.
