DSTP offers horizontal services for builders to ensure trust, privacy, and accessibility is built into our products and services. We also build customer-facing capabilities that provides customers with control and transparency and reducing privacy risk, while enabling partner teams to innovate with appropriate guardrails for content moderation, privacy, accessibility, and trust. The DSTP team is looking for a passionate Security and Privacy Incident Response Engineer who can lead the response to privacy and data protection issues across Devices & Services. You must thrive in dynamic/ambiguous situations, and think like both an attacker and defender, while working through the entire incident response lifecycle. You'll be working in a global team environment where clear and accurate communication and collaboration on privacy and data protection issues is critical. In this role, you will apply your creative and critical problem solving skills to quickly contain incidents and then work with cross-functional teams to remediate the root cause. You must have a passion for engineering solutions to complex privacy and data governance challenges, and recognize and fill gaps in capabilities. Above all, you should be passionate about privacy, information security, the ever-changing threat landscape and privacy/security automation and tooling. Key job responsibilities - Manage escalated privacy and trust risk events/cases from start to finish; write detailed case notes, reports, summaries, short and long-term recommendations, and trade-off analyses for all audiences, including senior leadership. - Interact with and influence other teams (e.g., service teams, engineering, product, legal); identify experts and stakeholders on other teams to support decisions on containing incidents or mitigating privacy and trust risks; build consensus and recommendations based on analysis of the nature of potential violations to Privacy Policies, Promises, or Legal/Regulatory requirements. - Own successful delivery of large, impactful, and highly cross-functional program initiatives while simultaneously tracking a set of smaller projects. Demonstrate comfort with handling technical investigations and analysis, and provide actionable recommendations to senior leadership audience with minimal supervision. - Develop deep knowledge of global privacy and data governance obligations, processes, best practices, and solutions utilized by Amazon. Utilize this knowledge to provide recommendations and consultation to improve DSTP processes and tooling and reduce risk through control automation and enhancements. - Establish metrics and regular reporting/escalation mechanisms for measuring results, progress, and gaps in performance and compliance. - Communicate plans, status, and critical issues clearly and effectively. - Support deep dive assessments and ad-hoc data analysis requests. A day in the life This is an inherently cross-functional role where you will work directly with engineers, product managers, policy and compliance specialists, legal, PR, Marketing, and other Amazon builders to help them identify, expediently contain/mitigate privacy incidents and risks, and implement a Privacy by Design and Default culture. You will use your investigative and/or analytical experience and demonstrate your prowess and experience in writing and briefing complex cases. You will track risk assessment, validation, adjudication, and remediation actions, and ensure that teams prioritize and execute those tasks in a timely fashion. You will be responsible for knowing the ins and outs of impacted systems, and ensure the impacted builders/owners follow the correct paths to compliance. You should be comfortable working in a fast-paced, rapidly evolving environment with fast delivery time, rapid iteration, and data-driven decision-making.
