Sr. Security Services SA, AWS Industries - Customer Acceleration Team - Security Specialists

Description

The AWS Industries Customer Acceleration Team is building a first‑of‑its‑kind Security Services SA function dedicated to the largest, most complex enterprise customers. This founding role will define how AWS goes deep on security services adoption—paired 1:1 with a dedicated Security Specialist Seller, owning architecture and customer outcomes across a named portfolio of our top customers.

• Serve as the long‑term security architect for enterprise customers within an industry, designing solutions across detection and response, identity governance, data protection, and network security.
• Engage CISOs and security engineering leaders as a technical peer—leading architecture reviews, security assessments, and proof‑of‑concept guidance.
• Drive measurable adoption of the AWS Security Services portfolio, including Security Hub, Guard Duty, Inspector, Detective, IAM Identity Center, Macie, Security Lake, Network Firewall, WAF, and emerging capabilities.
• Help customers secure their generative AI and agentic AI workloads by architecting security controls that keep pace with their innovation velocity.
• Shape the roadmap by translating field patterns and customer friction into structured product feedback.
• Create reusable assets (reference architectures, blogs, workshops, conference sessions) that scale impact beyond individual engagements.
• Own at least one team‑level initiative per year that raises the bar for the function as it scales.

Your morning might start with a Financial Services customer whose CISO needs to consolidate five security vendors into a unified posture management framework— you map their current detection stack against AWS‑native capabilities and sketch a phased migration plan. After lunch, you guide a Healthcare customer’s engineering team through an architecture for securing agentic AI workloads that interact with sensitive data. Between meetings, you draft a brief on a pattern you've seen across three accounts and flag it to the product team.

No two days look the same— but depth and follow‑through are constant.

• Experience in a technical role within a sales organization.
