IT Auditor, Internal Audit

At Amazon we're working to be the most customer-centric company on earth, and that includes protecting our customers and their data. To get there, we need exceptionally talented, bright, and driven people. Do you have a passion for architecture, security, software design, and innovative technologies? Do you see security, compliance, and risk management as business enablers? Amazon’s Internal Audit team is seeking a technology auditor to perform assessments of our Devices, Media and Entertainment, Alexa, Advertising and Corporate (DMAAC) suite of businesses. You will have the rare opportunity to dive deep into the internal architecture of DMAAC services to assess operational risks and security posture.

The ideal candidate is interested in diving deep into a variety of complex architectures and ensuring DMAAC services are designed and operating securely. You will support the planning, scoping, execution, and reporting based on identified risks. Assessment scope may include identity and access management, data security/privacy, service monitoring, release management, and service availability.

You will bring independent and objective points of view to provide support to service teams and their partners to identify opportunities for control improvements to mitigate risks, ensure compliance and improve operational performance. In this capacity, you will gain valuable exposure to many areas of our global business.

This position will challenge your current understanding of Amazon services. You will have the ability to learn new technology concepts quickly. You are someone who is curious and known for diving deep into subject matter, taking ownership, and encouraging innovative and pragmatic solutions to complex problems. In addition, you will have solid business judgment, enthusiasm for risk management, the ability to gain trust and respect of business leaders, and the capability to guide a fast-paced organization to the right results.

Join us and help us to continue to raise the operations and security bar for Internal Audit and the DMAAC team!
