## Description

Description Amazon's Security & Privacy Regulatory Enablement (SPRe) team is the regulatory enablement engine for Amazon's security, privacy, and AI compliance assurance needs. We take any new regulatory requirement from initial publication to demonstrated compliance across three domains - Security, Privacy, and AI - using a repeatable, scalable operating model (Anticipate * Enable * Assure). We are seeking an experienced, self-motivated Senior Regulatory Assurance Specialist with a strong background spanning both Information Security and Privacy compliance. This individual will deliver external audits and regulatory examinations across security and privacy domains, working across multiple jurisdictions and regulatory frameworks. The role demands someone who can operate with equal confidence in a payments audit environment as in a DMA or GDPR compliance assessment - applying domain-agnostic assurance methodology across both disciplines. Your work directly impacts Customer Trust in
Amazon by ensuring that regulated services demonstrate compliance to external regulators, auditors, and supervisory authorities across all domains., * Deliver external audit lifecycle activities across security and privacy domains - from planning and scoping through evidence coordination, auditor management, and report issuance

 * Represent Amazon's security and privacy posture in external regulatory audits and examinations across multiple jurisdictions
 * Coordinate evidence collection, collation, and presentation to external auditors and regulatory examiners across both security and privacy frameworks
 * Develop and maintain Risk Control Matrices (RCMs) that map regulatory requirements to specific controls, evidence requirements, and testing procedures
 * Manage audit findings, remediation tracking, and formal closure - including preparation of management responses and corrective action plans
 * Drive detailed analysis of regulatory requirements in collaboration with legal teams, performing scoping and applicability assessments to determine which services, entities, and systems fall within scope
 * Dive deep into the control environment across security and privacy - understanding the effectiveness of control design and operations, and identifying cross-domain synergies (e.g., overlapping controls such as access management, encryption, logging)
 * Contribute to emerging regulations and technology standards, partnering with internal security, privacy, legal, and public policy teams to ensure Amazon's voice is represented in relevant forums
 * Influence automation efforts for evidence collection and control testing to achieve compliance at scale
 * Communicate clearly and effectively to senior stakeholders on audit status, programme health, and critical issues - escalating appropriately and driving issues to closure
 * Break complex regulatory requirements into manageable programmes, ruthlessly prioritising, and delivering results across a global, multi-jurisdictional environment

About The Team SPRe operates through three interconnected gears forming a continuous flywheel: Anticipate (regulatory engagement and horizon scanning), Enable (programme design and regulatory compliance monitoring), and Assure (external audit delivery and regulatory examination management). This role leads the Assure function - the execution engine that demonstrates Amazon's compliance to the outside world. Team members include security compliance specialists, privacy assurance specialists, and cross-domain flex resources operating across India, Europe, and the US.
