Are you looking for an opportunity to design products and services that put people first? The Security Issue Management engineering group, part of Stores Security, is looking for an innovative, passionate, and outcome-oriented design leader.

What we do

The Security Issue Management team builds solutions that keep Amazon systems and data secure on behalf of the Amazon customer. Our customers range from security engineers who need a comprehensive understanding of Amazon systems and their security state, to service teams who need solutions that make it easy to build and operate secure systems. We use the latest technology, including AWS, to solve security problems at Amazon scale. We employ automation and machine learning to reduce, or eliminate, manual effort to help our internal customers raise the security bar. We have bold goals to stay ahead of the curve on security and delight our customers with intuitive and effective products.

What you will do

As a Senior UX Designer on our team, you will solve complex design problems, helping empower internal service teams, security engineers, and managers to continuously raise the bar on security posture. Throughout the strategy, design, and development lifecycle, you will work collaboratively with customers, engineers, product managers and senior stakeholders.

This position requires deep customer focus and the ability to build relationships and feedback loops to continuously improve products based on evolving customer needs and security goals. You will have ownership over your design solutions from conception through implementation, working closely with engineering teams to ensure the high standards of your designs are maintained.

What you bring

You have an “anything is possible” mindset when faced with highly ambiguous and complex problems. You are proud of your work, skills, judgment, and expertise – but you are simultaneously eager to listen to feedback from others. You have a background in complex data products or developing deep understanding in technical or scientific domains, geek out over customer experience, and believe that no experience is perfect unless it delights customers in unexpected ways. You have demonstrated design acumen and believe in the power of strategic design to differentiate experience and increase customer trust. You are an influencer who doesn’t hold your ideas as precious and who iterates quickly, based on data, and delivers recommendations and analysis that tell the story of the customer experience your team is delivering.

Why you want to be on the Security Issue Management team


We are technology professionals, who are genuinely passionate about continuously improving the security of Amazon systems on behalf of the Amazon customer. We also take pride in reducing the effort required for service teams across Amazon to build and maintain their systems securely. We are on a mission, have fun working together, and have a culture of learning and career growth.
