Security Solution Architect - Secure AI, APJC Customer Security

Role Overview

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is recruiting a Secure AI Solution Architect for the APJC Customer Security team focused on creating content and frameworks. Customers in the region frequently ask questions related to securely building AI systems, such as assigning identities to autonomous agents, protecting against prompt injection, governing AI development lifecycles, and demonstrating AI governance compliance to regulators. Although solutions to these inquiries are emerging with customers, the need is for a cohesive, documented set of deployable patterns usable across the field. This role is dedicated to building that essential layer.

Key Responsibilities

• Transform validated secure AI concepts—including agentic AI identity schemes, security frameworks, lifecycle control mechanisms, governance guardrails, and audit patterns—into well-crafted, ready-to-deploy reference implementations with working code rather than just documentation.
• Validate each pattern against actual customer needs to ensure robustness, then compile them into a published library for use by Solutions Architects region-wide.
• Produce code, reference designs, and comprehensive documentation so that any Solutions Architect or partner within the APJC region can utilize these resources without needing specialized expertise.
• Collaborate closely with AWS product teams such as Bedrock, AgentCore, and SageMaker to communicate field insights and customer data, influencing product guidance and roadmaps.
• Keep abreast of new AI and security service offerings from AWS, rapidly translating emerging features into practical, field-ready reference implementations.
• Identify customer challenges and feature gaps to contribute meaningful feedback that shapes future product developments.

Daily Activities

Typical workdays involve hands-on building and enhancement of AI identity reference implementations, addressing customer feedback such as cross-account tool authorization issues, collaborating with service teams to align product capabilities with customer needs, constructing documented deployment-ready AI lifecycle control solutions, and coordinating with go-to-market teams to disseminate solutions through training and community events.

Team Context

The APJC Customer Security team supports customers in adopting AI securely on AWS, balancing security, risk, and regulation to accelerate AI usage rather than hinder it. The team runs two programmes: Secure AI (ensuring AWS provides optimal secure AI building blocks) and AI for Security (leveraging AI to strengthen customer defenses). As one of two Solution Architects, this role develops the foundational reusable technical architecture supporting both programmes by liaising with product teams and customer-facing field teams, ensuring solutions are widely adopted and impactful.

Required Qualifications

• Minimum of 4 years’ experience in areas such as software development, cloud computing, systems engineering, infrastructure, security, networking, or data analytics.
• At least 2 years of experience in designing, implementing, or consulting on applications and infrastructure.

Preferred Qualifications

• Professional experience in software development or Internet industries.
• Experience with migrating or transforming legacy systems to cloud environments.
• Familiarity with AWS technologies from development or operations perspectives.
