Amazon GuardDuty is a threat detection service that continuously monitors, analyzes, and processes AWS data sources and logs to identify unexpected, potentially unauthorized, and malicious activity within customer AWS environments. GuardDuty combines machine learning, anomaly detection, and malicious file discovery, using both AWS and third-party sources to help protect workloads and data across AWS accounts.
Amazon GuardDuty is seeking talented Software Development Engineers to join a team in our Los Angeles office!. In this role, you will design, build, and operate highly available, scalable distributed systems that power GuardDuty's Malware protection and Runtime Monitoring products. You will work on challenging problems at the intersection of cloud security, distributed systems, and customer experience — building platforms that serve both internal teams and millions of external AWS customers.
You will be a hands-on engineer contributing to the full software development lifecycle — from requirements gathering and system design through implementation, testing, deployment, and operations. You will collaborate closely with security engineers, applied scientists, and product managers to deliver features that protect millions of AWS customers. This is a high-impact role where your work directly contributes to the security posture of AWS customers worldwide.
Troubleshoot and resolve complex production issues, driving root cause analysis and operational excellence — including using AI tooling to accelerate log analysis, hypothesis generation, and runbook execution
Our team owns two of GuardDuty's core threat detection products: Malware Protection, which scans EC2 workloads, S3 objects for malicious files and supporting AWS Backup and Runtime Monitoring, which uses an eBPF agent to detect threats in real time across EC2, ECS, Fargate, and EKS.
We work at the intersection of security research, distributed systems, and operating system internals - protecting AWS customers from the threats that target their compute and data.
1+ years of designing and developing large-scale, multi-tiered, multi-threaded, embedded or distributed software applications, tools, systems, and services using: C#, C++, Java, or Perl experience
