Within AWS Infrastructure Services, the AWS Infrastructure Security – Security Products & Solutions (SPS) team is a global engineering organization responsible for the end-to-end lifecycle of physical security products and solutions deployed across all AWS data centers worldwide. Our portfolio spans the full range of physical security technologies deployed across AWS data centers, including video surveillance, access control, intrusion detection, media destruction, and more.

We own everything from initial design and engineering through deployment, operational enablement, and eventual decommissioning. Our team develops the standards, SOPs, automation, runbooks, and training that enable operations teams in the field to maintain and scale these systems reliably. We work cross-functionally across AWS organizations to deliver secure, cost-effective, and resilient solutions that meet the evolving needs of the world's largest cloud infrastructure.

We are seeking a Data Center Security Systems Engineer to join our team and contribute across all phases of the security product lifecycle. In this role, you will design, engineer, and integrate complex security systems involving multiple internal and external stakeholders. You will develop technical documentation, define equipment specifications, and create the operational frameworks that enable global deployment and support. You will drive standardization, identify opportunities for innovation, and help shape the next generation of physical security infrastructure at AWS scale.

Our products and solutions support all AWS regions globally. Travel will be necessary but should not exceed 25%, including occasional international travel to support cross-regional initiatives and deployments.
