Salesforce Security Engineer, Salesforce Success Central

Overview

Salesforce Security Engineer, Salesforce Success Central (SFSC) – build and maintain security tooling for Salesforce deployments ly Salesforce security architecture knowledge, including profiles, permission sets, sharing models, and platform APIs, to develop automated security scanning and detection capabilities. Provide guidance to service owners to improve operational maturity and collaborate with Amazon security teams to implement standards across the Salesforce environment. Deliver enablement and automation that maintains secure environments.

You will design, code, and ship security tools on AWS infrastructure and Salesforce platforms, build detections, security evaluations, and customer-facing guidance to make secure configurations the easy path for teams.

You will partner with Sec Ops and security teams across Amazon as the Salesforce subject matter expert, bridging platform configurations with enterprise security requirements.

• Build and maintain automated security scanning and evaluation capabilities that assess Salesforce org configurations against defined security standards
• Apply deep Salesforce platform knowledge to identify security risks in profiles, permission sets, sharing rules, connected apps, session settings, and Apex code
• Develop detections for configuration changes that introduce security risk and deliver escalation workflows that route findings to the right owners
• Partner with service owners to interpret security findings, prioritize remediation, and implement secure configurations within their Salesforce environments
• Write and refine security evaluations that measure operational maturity across the Salesforce fleet
• Develop customer-facing guidance, documentation, and training to help service owners understand and resolve Salesforce security findings independently
• Collaborate with Amazon enterprise security teams to translate security requirements into Salesforce-specific implementation patterns
• Stay current with Salesforce platform releases, AI innovations, and security features, updating tooling accordingly
• Support other teams performing security reviews, vulnerability analysis, and incident response when Salesforce expertise is required

Your time splits across building, advising, and investigating. You write SOQL-based detections and Apex code that automate security checks, review scan results to triage new findings, and update detection logic when Salesforce releases change the threat surface. You meet with service owners to walk through remediation plans for exposed integrations or misconfigured access models. Security teams across Amazon reach out when they need Salesforce expertise to assess a risk or validate an architecture decision.

No two days look the same, but each one connects platform knowledge to measurable security outcomes.

SFSC sits at the intersection of security, SaaS platform engineering, and enterprise operations. The team is small, so your work ships fast and has visible impact across the organization. You will build expertise in securing third-party platforms at scale and partner with security teams across Amazon who rely on Salesforce knowledge to make decisions. We seek out and celebrate a diversity of ideas, perspectives, and technical backgrounds.
