We are building the next generation of physical security automation for AWS data centers worldwide. Our team develops software that accelerates how security devices - think cameras, access control systems, and intrusion detection - are provisioned, monitored, and managed across hundreds of global sites.
As an SDE on this team, you will primarily work on Skyward, our security device lifecycle management platform, with a focus on Zero-Touch Provisioning (ZTP) - a program that automates the end-to-end provisioning of physical security devices from construction drawings through to operational readiness. You will also contribute to Red Zone Passport, the application stack that supports red zone security workflows - including mobile validation, access control, and device compliance tooling used by security teams on the ground. This work directly impacts the speed at which new AWS data centers come online.
Key job responsibilities
Design and build backend services, APIs, and orchestration workflows that automate security device provisioning at global scale
Develop integrations with internal systems for device discovery, network configuration, and operational monitoring
Build event-driven architectures using AWS services (Lambda, DynamoDB, SNS/SQS, Step Functions) to process device lifecycle events in real time
Contribute to AI/ML-powered features that extract device metadata from engineering drawings and automate device naming and configuration
Partner with security engineers, site project managers, and systems integrators to translate operational workflows into scalable software solutions
Help evolve and maintain our red zone access and compliance platform, building features that support physical security operations across global sites
Own your deliverables end-to-end - from design through deployment and operations
About the team
The Raven Team is part of Infrastructure Security at AWS. We build and operate software that automates physical security device lifecycle management across AWS data centers globally. Our platforms - Skyward and Red Zone Passport - handle everything from automated device provisioning and health monitoring to red zone process automation. We work at the intersection of physical security and software engineering, partnering with security teams, data center security managers, and systems integrators to reduce the time it takes to bring new data centers online. We"re a small, high-ownership team solving real-world infrastructure problems at global scale.
