At Amazon, Security is Top Priority. We are looking for security architects who are passionate about Cloud Security. Ideal candidates are those who have working experience with AWS Cloud, Cloud Security, Infrastructure Security, Network Security, Cloud Security Assessment, Penetration testing, Application security assessment, Compliance audits, Cryptography, and are interested in helping customers embrace cloud technologies. This role is ideal for security architects who have worked in regulated industries like Banks, Insurance Companies, PSUs or as security architects in System Integrators. AWS ProServe India is looking for a SRC (Security, Risk & Compliance) Architect with a strong foundation in traditional cloud and infrastructure security, coupled with a forward-looking focus on AI Security. This role will deliver end-to-end security engagements for customers in India and globally — spanning network security, identity management, encryption, compliance, and DevSecOps, while also helping customers secure their Generative AI, LLM, and agentic AI workloads against emerging threats such as prompt injection, model poisoning, and data exfiltration. This role is ideal for professionals who have built their careers on traditional security disciplines (infrastructure hardening, penetration testing, compliance audits, incident response) in regulated industries like Banking, Insurance, and Financial Services — and who are now extending that expertise into AI/ML security. Ideal candidates bring deep hands-on experience with AWS Cloud Security, Network & Infrastructure Security, Cryptography, and DevSecOps, alongside growing proficiency in securing AI workloads, LLM applications, RAG pipelines, and agentic systems. A passion for helping customers embrace both cloud and AI technologies securely is essential.
