Wireless Security Engineer II, Wireless Security

Role overview

You’ll be a Wireless Security Engineer II in Amazon’s Wireless Security Assessments team. The role focuses on building cloud-based detection systems that identify wireless threats at scale by turning RF telemetry and logs into actionable detection logic.

Responsibilities

• Own the detection engineering lifecycle for wireless threats: design, build, test, and maintain detection logic running on facility telemetry.
• Ingest, transform, and analyze large-scale security data, including:
  • RF metadata
  • Wireless IDS alerts
  • System logs (e.g., syslog)
  • Custom sensor telemetry
• Develop and refine data pipelines to normalize/enrich noisy signals into clear security intelligence.
• Leverage and evolve AI-assisted workflows for automation of collection, triage, and pattern recognition.
• Perform targeted on-site wireless assessments when physical validation is needed (using RF fundamentals and wireless protocol knowledge).
• Author risk-calibrated findings, educate partner teams, drive remediation, and present analysis to senior leadership.
• Build scalable tools and automation (detection rules, pipelines, operational tooling) to improve detection coverage and efficiency.

Requirements

• Strong detection engineering and data analysis skills.
• Working familiarity with wireless security.
• Comfort operating in cloud-native environments.
• Ability to make sound decisions under ambiguity; outcome-oriented.
• Demonstrated Amazon leadership principles: Ownership, Bias for Action, Dive Deep.
• Up to 50% travel, within and outside the United States.
• Must be a US Citizen.

Nice to have

• Evidence of using AI-assisted tooling for detection/triage workflows.
• Experience with distributed sensor systems and enterprise security tooling.
