Description
Amazon’s Identity Services cares deeply about building and preserving customer trust. We are seeking engineers who will work with us to deliver the world's most secure, convenient and intuitive Identity experience ... We own the systems that enable identifying and authenticating every Amazon customer in the world. Every aspect of the Amazon global business depends on our systems to know who the customer is. If our systems are not up and running, the company stops. We balance keeping our systems fast, scalable and performant (no exceptions!) with rapidly delivering great features for Amazon customers and our developer partners. We have a hand in almost every major launch at Amazon so working with us you get exposed to all kinds of exciting initiatives. In short, we get to own and innovate on security features while also supporting nearly every other business at the company; the best of both worlds!
In this role you will be helping us build the next generation of Amazon’s Identity infrastructure using latest AWS offerings (e.g. Fargate, Lambda, ECS, DDB, VPC, etc.) to deliver industry leading security controls not previously possible. You will have the opportunity to partner with our Senior and Principal tech leaders to deliver zero-trust distributed systems, applying best practices for API, security and scalable system design. You will build event-based containerized micro-services that can easily scale to support millions of authentication operations per minute. You will deliver best-in-market authentication solutions such as WebAuthN approval notifications, and/or improve existing functionality to incorporate higher authentication assurance to protect high-value transactions for our customers. Our engineers are proud of the work they do and the impact it has when used by hundreds of millions of customers on Day 1, helping make their accounts more secure.
