Full Job Description
Application deadline: Jun 6, 2026 Amazon’s STORM Red Team (SDO Threat Operations, Research & Monitoring) is looking for a Senior Security Engineer to join our team of offensive security operators. We hack Amazon’s services, infrastructure, AI/ML systems, processes, and controls, then work with defensive and service teams to fix what we find and sharpen detection, prevention, and response capabilities across the company. STORM is a 10-person team that operates with significant autonomy. We choose our own targets, scope our own engagements, and operate across Amazon (retail, devices, entertainment, healthcare, subsidiaries, and more), partnering with the AWS Red Team when our paths overlap. Our scope is expansive and always challenging, with new business areas and attack surfaces constantly emerging across Amazon. We run multi-week adversary emulation campaigns, purple team exercises, shortest-path assessments, and targeted research efforts. The work ranges from emulating nation-state actors against critical infrastructure to testing whether a financially motivated threat group’s public playbook would work against us. We report directly into SDO security leadership and our findings regularly reach VP and SVP audiences. This is a fully remote position by design. The team is distributed and operates remotely as a core part of how we work. We’re looking for someone who can independently lead Red Team engagements end-to-end, identify and drive remediation of systemic security issues, mentor other operators, and influence security outcomes across organizational boundaries. You’ll be working alongside experienced operators on high-impact engagements against Amazon’s most critical systems. Key job responsibilities - Lead Red Team engagements end-to-end: scoping, target identification, execution, reporting, and driving remediation with service teams - Build and execute complex, multi-stage attack paths across diverse environments including cloud infrastructure, AI/ML systems,
