Description

AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. In other words, we're the people who keep the cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain - and we're looking for talented people who want to help.

You'll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You'll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you'll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the leading cloud provider, providing virtualized IT infrastructure (compute, storage, networking, database, messaging, and many other services) to customers all over the world. AWS runs a globally distributed environment, operating at massive levels of scale. Businesses, from startups to enterprises, run their operations and applications on AWS's multi-tenant infrastructure, as well as governments, using this same technology on private infrastructure.

The AWS Data Centre Communities organization manages the data centre facilities and equipment that power Amazon Web Services. Safety of our employees, the security of our customers' data, and the flawless operations of our infrastructure are our top priorities. We are looking for a Facility Security Manager for our cloud infrastructure in Australia. We need someone with experience managing security of large critical installations, ideally data centres; and who can set strategy, manage budgets, lead projects, and drive improvements in our security practices and operations.

You'll be responsible for oversight of uniformed security officers, and management of the day-to-day security operations. You'll be responsible for working with our customers and Amazon teams to develop new processes, deploy new technology, and continuously improve security of our operations. You'll be responsible for developing, tracking, and driving our key security metrics, including program reviews and testing our security controls. You'll oversee the work of vendors, contractors, and Amazon employees, to ensure our security requirements are met. As a leader in private cloud security, you will engage with senior leadership across AWS and our customers, including writing and presenting documents on your ideas, operational procedures, and results.

This role requires the ability to adapt to a dynamic operational environment, driven by changing customer requirements, build schedule changes, security vendor commitments, and evolving security threats. The incumbent must be able to work at pace and adjusting priorities, while relying on established knowledge and experience in the cleared security space. Must have the ability to interact with customers and meet short notice customer driven deadlines.
