Are you ready to build the future of secure artificial
intelligence not just design it, but actually construct it? The
AWS AWS GenAI Innovation and Delivery Center stands at the
forefront of the AI revolution, where we're not just advising on
technology we're in the trenches, writing code, architecting
systems, and co-building alongside the world's most innovative
organizations. As businesses race to adopt
transformative GenAI capabilities, security isn't just a checkbox
it's the foundation that makes innovation possible. In this role,
you won't just advise on that foundation you'll build it,
hands-on, alongside the engineers and partners who are making GenAI
real for customers. We're seeking a Senior
GenAI Security Consultant to embed directly with our Forward
Deployed Engineering (FDE) teams, serving as the hands-on security
builder who ensures every line of code, every architecture
decision, and every customer delivery meets AWS's security bar.
This isn't a strategy role it's a builder role. You'll be in the
code, in the architecture, and in the room where it happens,
co-creating secure GenAI solutions at the bleeding edge of what's
possible. Why This Role
Matters In the GenAI Innovation Center, our
Forward Deployed Engineers are on the front lines of customer
delivery building, prototyping, and shipping GenAI solutions at
speed. Security excellence at this layer can't be bolted on after
the fact. It has to be built in from the start, by someone who can
work at the same technical depth as the engineers they're
partnering with. You'll be: -
Embedding directly within FDE engagements as the hands-on security
builder, co-developing secure GenAI solutions alongside internal
engineers and external partners - Holding and enforcing
the AWS security bar at the implementation level, ensuring customer
deliveries meet the highest standards of security by
design - Partnering with internal builders and
third-party partners to architect and implement security controls
that are production-ready, not just conceptually sound -
Translating complex security requirements into working code,
reusable components, and deployable accelerators that teams can
build on - Serving as the technical security authority
within engagements, making real-time architectural decisions that
protect customer trust without slowing
delivery The Innovation
Opportunity This role puts you at the absolute
tip of the spear of AWS GenAI delivery. You'll have the unique
opportunity to: - Build security capabilities deployed
immediately in production environments for some of the world's most
demanding customers - Collaborate with AWS's most
talented Forward Deployed Engineers, shaping how security is
implemented at the intersection of speed and rigor -
Develop reusable security patterns, reference architectures, and
accelerators that scale your impact far beyond individual
engagements - Influence how AWS and its partners approach
secure GenAI delivery from the ground up If
you're energized by building things that no one has built before,
if you're as comfortable in an IDE as you are in an architecture
review, and if you want to be the person who ensures that the most
exciting GenAI deployments in the world are also the most secure,
this role is for you. Join us in building the future of secure AI
innovation at AWS. Key job
responsibilities Security for GenAI - Embed
within FDE engagements as the hands-on security builder,
co-developing and co-implementing secure GenAI solutions alongside
internal engineers and partners - Design and implement
production-ready security architectures for enterprise GenAI
deployments, with specific service configurations and working code,
not just conceptual frameworks - Build and deploy
security controls specific to GenAI applications, including prompt
injection defenses, data boundary enforcement, model access
controls, and audit logging - Develop reusable security
accelerators, reference implementations, and deployable assets for
AWS GenAI services that teams can adopt across
engagements - Conduct real-time security architecture
reviews and implementation guidance within active customer
engagements, ensuring security requirements are met at
delivery GenAI for Security
Innovation - Design and build innovative GenAI-powered
security solutions within the context of customer engagements,
demonstrating what's possible at the intersection of AI and
security - Develop proof-of-concepts and working
prototypes for novel applications of GenAI in security operations,
with a path to production deployment - Build
security-focused applications leveraging AWS GenAI services (Amazon
Bedrock, Amazon GuardDuty, Amazon Security Lake, and others) that
solve real customer problems - Partner with internal
builders and external partners to identify and implement
GenAI-powered security capabilities that can be operationalized at
scale - Contribute to the development of new tools and
methodologies that advance how GenAI is used to enhance security
capabilities Thought Leadership & Industry
Impact - Author technical content, reference
architectures, and implementation guides that capture and scale the
security patterns developed through customer
engagements - Present at AWS events and industry
conferences on hands-on GenAI security implementation and
forward-deployed security engineering - Collaborate with
AWS service teams to provide ground-level feedback on security
features and capabilities based on real deployment
experience - Contribute to the development of security
best practices and standards for GenAI implementation, grounded in
practical delivery experience - Share knowledge and
mentor team members on secure implementation practices, elevating
the security capability of the broader FDE
community Success in this role requires
exceptional technical depth, the ability to build and ship
production-quality security solutions under the time pressures of
active customer engagements, and the judgment to make sound
security decisions in real time without sacrificing delivery
velocity. A day in the life As a Sr
GenAI Security Consultant embedded with Forward Deployed Engineers,
you might start your day in a working session with an engineering
team, reviewing and hardening the security architecture of a GenAI
application mid-build. By mid-morning, you're writing and testing
security controls for a customer's Amazon Bedrock deployment,
collaborating directly with a partner engineer on implementation.
After lunch, you're in a rapid architecture review for a new
engagement, identifying security requirements that need to be built
in from day one. By afternoon, you're contributing to a reusable
security accelerator that will benefit the next ten engagements
after this one. Your day might conclude with a technical deep-dive
with an AWS service team, sharing what you've learned from the
field. Throughout the day, you'll balance hands-on building,
real-time security decision-making, and knowledge capture always
at the forefront of what secure GenAI delivery looks like in
practice. About the team Diverse
