AWS Sec Assurance Principal,DP

DESCRIPTION

Job summary
AWS is seeking a Security Assurance Principal who will own strategic engagements with regulators and regulated customers on the issue of data protection and privacy in Europe. The position is based in Germany, but will require regular travel to other countries in Europe, especially countries in the Nordics (Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden).

If you have a deep understanding of security, privacy and resilience and you are passionate about building and sustaining trust with our customers, then this role is for you.

You will think big, having accountability for data protection and privacy engagements in Europe, but you will sustain a bias for action and attention to detail that drives continuous rapid improvement. You will have a desire to learn and understand the complexities of legal, regulatory and compliance requirements across all sectors of your region. And you’ll translate that understanding to teams in engineering, operations, audit, policy, legal and sales.

You’ll recognise that success and value in security is measured by the pace of innovation, and the safe management of risk. You’ll aspire to change the experience of security assurance to be more valuable and frictionless for all of our customers.

You will be comfortable supporting engagement with regulator and customer auditors, architects, security officers, lawyers and policy-makers. You will be proficient in understanding the diverse needs of regulators and government assurance agencies. You’ll put the customer first, working at the centre of an extended team of specialists, program managers and engineers who are together working to earn and sustain the trust of our customers.

You will have a good understanding of cloud technologies, experience in security assurance and demonstrated success in driving innovative strategies to overcome obstacles.

If you are ready to bring all your experience, energy and talent to transform how security assurance in the cloud is experienced for our customers in the region, then we’d like to hear from you.

This position will be responsible for:

• Liaising with strategic regulators, customers and partners across public and commercial sectors on their perception and requirements for privacy assurance;
• Guiding the requirements for new programs, features, evidence and operational changes to meet evolving requirements in regulated sectors;
• Innovating to develop mechanisms that continuously improve the customer experience of security assurance;
• Performing impact and market assessments of emerging compliance programs;
• Tracking and reporting on changes to security controls and requirements standards across the region; and
• Partnering with policy, legal, marketing and sales, contributing to initiatives that build the perception of trust in AWS.
