Software Development Engineer, AWS Security

Join AWS Security's Mitigation Services team to build cutting-edge security solutions that protect AWS customers from cyber threats in real-time. As a Software Development Engineer, you'll work alongside data scientists and security engineers to develop automated mitigation capabilities that can stop threat actors as attacks happen. You'll leverage AWS's comprehensive service portfolio to build scalable, real-time security solutions and create risk analysis models.

The role offers significant growth opportunities within Amazon's security organization, which is central to maintaining customer trust across all Amazon products and services. You'll gain exposure to various security domains including cloud, devices, retail, healthcare, and physical stores. The team values diversity of thought and maintains an inclusive culture where continuous learning is encouraged.

The position includes on-call responsibilities (one week every two months), but the team focuses on building fault-tolerant systems and addressing root causes to minimize disruptions. You'll work in Dublin, Ireland, with Amazon providing relocation support for EU candidates. The role offers flexible work arrangements to support work-life harmony and provides comprehensive benefits including medical coverage and ongoing professional development opportunities.

Ideal candidates should have 5+ years of software development experience, strong architecture skills, and proficiency in languages like JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, or Java. You should be enthusiastic, empathetic, curious, and able to work effectively with diverse teams while contributing to the positive, inclusive culture.
