What happens when you combine startup speed with Amazon-scale impact? You get this team. Amazon Enterprise Security Products is a newly launched group building intelligent, cloud-agnostic security tools using AI-first development practices. Here, you build AI and you build with AI — at the same time. This role is a chance to shape the future of security tooling with a small, fast team that ships like a startup but deploys at Amazon scale. We're looking for a Data Scientist who thrives at the intersection of applied ML, agentic AI, and security. You'll design and deploy models that detect threats, power intelligent agents, and make security decisions at cloud scale. You'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with SDEs, applied scientists, security researchers, and PMs on a team where the best idea wins, regardless of title or tenure. Key job responsibilities
* Build the intelligence behind AI-first security products: Design, train, and ship ML models that power agentic systems, anomaly detection, threat classification, and automated response — all running across multi-cloud environments. * Own the full science lifecycle: From problem framing and data exploration through model development, evaluation, production deployment, and monitoring. You build it, you ship it, you run it. * Build with AI to build AI: Use agentic coding tools, LLM-powered workflows, and experimental AI tooling to accelerate every phase of your work; from EDA to feature engineering to model iteration. Multiply your velocity and raise the bar for what one scientist can deliver. * Power agentic architectures: Develop the models, embeddings, RAG pipelines, evaluation frameworks, and feedback loops that make multi-agent security systems smart, safe, and customer-ready. * Prototype rapidly and validate with customers: Turn hypotheses into prototypes in days, not quarters. Iterate based on real customer signal and ship what works. * Partner across disciplines: Work directly with SDEs, applied scientists, security researchers, PMs, and UX designers to turn ambiguous problems into shipped solutions. Small team means short lines between you and the decision. * Communicate with impact: Translate complex modeling results into clear recommendations for engineers, product leaders, and senior executives. Influence direction with data. * Raise the science bar: Contribute to technical and science reviews, mentor teammates, and champion AI-first development practices. Help shape the science culture of a fast-growing team from the ground floor. Diverse Experiences
