Security Operations Engineer, AWS Security Cloud Response, Amazon Security Cloud Security Response
We are seeking a Security Operations Engineer to support cloud security response activities in a fast-paced, highly distributed environment. In this role, you will help protect cloud infrastructure, services, and customer data by investigating security events, coordinating incident response, and improving detection and response capabilities. You will work closely with security engineering, infrastructure, software development, and operations teams to identify threats, contain incidents, and reduce the likelihood of recurrence.
Your responsibilities will include monitoring and analysing security alerts, conducting technical investigations, triaging suspected compromises, and supporting the full incident management lifecycle. You will develop and maintain incident response procedures, playbooks, and operational documentation, while ensuring that security events are accurately recorded and communicated to relevant stakeholders. You will also contribute to threat hunting, log analysis, forensic investigations, vulnerability remediation, and the continuous improvement of security monitoring across cloud environments. Where appropriate, you will automate repetitive processes and build tools that improve response speed, consistency, and operational resilience.
The successful candidate will have professional experience in security operations, incident response, or cloud security, together with a strong understanding of cloud infrastructure, identity and access management, networking, encryption, and common attack techniques. Experience with security information and event management platforms, endpoint or workload protection, intrusion detection, scripting, and automation is highly desirable. You should be comfortable analysing ambiguous situations, prioritising competing demands, and communicating technical findings clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. A methodical approach, strong investigative judgement, curiosity, and a commitment to continuous learning are essential. Relevant industry certifications or equivalent practical experience are welcome.
