DESCRIPTION

Amazon Lab126 is an inventive research and development company that designs and engineers high-profile consumer electronics. Lab126 began in 2004 as a subsidiary of Amazon.com, Inc., originally creating the best-selling Kindle family of products. Since then, we have produced groundbreaking devices like Fire tablets, Fire TV, Amazon Echo and, more recently, Ring devices. What will you help us create?

In Sr. Software Development role, you will be prototyping, implementing and testing vulnerability detection code to protect Android and RTOS platforms (e.g. IOT devices). Using a defense in depth approach, you will be building techniques on top of Linux and Android Framework to mitigate malicious actions (e.g. malware, escalation of privileges, etc.) via a security analyzer. To further innovate, you will be exploring machine learning techniques (i.e. supervised/unsupervised learning, model optimization, etc.) to help identify malicious patterns. You may also build backend web service to support data analysis. If you enjoy working in a fast-paced environment, have a passion for innovation, and have the highest standards for software development, this position will give you the opportunity to design and build cutting edge software for millions of Amazon devices (e.g. Echo, FireTV, etc.).
