Manager, Security Engineering

AWS Security Incident Response is looking for a Security Manager who combines deep technical expertise in security operations with the leadership judgment to drive a team through a fundamental transformation — from human-driven investigation to AI-native security operations. You will own operational excellence for a global team of security engineers and data scientists, engage directly with customer security executives during high-severity incidents, and drive the response-to-automation flywheel that makes the service smarter with every investigation.

The AWS Security Incident Response team provides 24/7 security response through a follow-the-sun operating model. The service combines automated triage workflows, AI-powered investigation agents, and human security analysts to respond to threats across customer AWS environments at massive scale. Our AI systems autonomously resolve the majority of routine investigations within minutes, allowing engineers to focus on complex threat analysis, proactive hunting, and customer engagement. We treat every investigation as a confirmed security incident until the data proves otherwise.

Based in Singapore, this role also contributes part-time capacity to a strategic AWS engagement in the region that brings together cybersecurity, data engineering, and AI/ML to support large-scale threat detection and response capabilities.
