Do you have a unique combination of deep technical knowledge, business acumen and strong interpersonal skills? Do you like helping government leaders think through how to secure services in the AWS Cloud? Amazon Web Services (AWS) is seeking a security solutions architect to work with some of our largest Public Sector customers. At AWS, customer obsession is in our DNA. The successful candidate will become a trusted advisor to our customers and will work with AWS Global Government sales, business development, solutions architecture and product teams to develop the security and compliance expertise needed to deliver results. In this vital role, you will help customers achieve their mission goals on AWS by identifying and tackling major security risk, and compliance questions from stakeholders in areas such as Identity, Data Protection, Network Security, and Generative AI. You will work directly with customer security, engineering, audit, risk and compliance teams to help them understand how to confidently use AWS. This position requires that the candidate selected be a US Citizen and obtain and maintain an active Top Secret security clearance. ### Key job responsibilities - Work with AWS Strategic customers to convey cloud computing security, compliance, and risk management best practices - Provide subject matter expertise on security topics including identity, data protection, network security, and agent-based AI - Design and Build working proof-of-concept architectures to tackle emerging security challenges - Develop technical content, such as white papers and reference architectures, that can be used by our customers to assist them in deploying secure and compliant cloud-based solutions - Provide mentorship across AWS sales and solutions architecture teams regarding Security and Identity to build skills in the field - Work with customers to better understand compliance models in the cloud - Represent AWS at trade events by delivering presentations and workshops ### A day in the life An AWS Security Specialist SA is the deep-domain security expert for the Global Government sales leaders. Day-to-day, you design secure architectures with customers, build proof-of-concepts using services like Security Hub and GuardDuty, deliver hands-on workshops, and respond to specialist requests from field teams. A major part of the role is scaling through others—training generalist SAs to lead security conversations independently—and producing thought leadership like blog posts and reference architectures. ### The philosophy security is an enabling function, not a blocker. Success means customers are more secure and the field is more self-sufficient. About the team ### About AWS Why AWS? Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform. We pioneered cloud computing and never stopped innovating — that’s why customers from the most successful startups to Global 500 companies trust our robust suite of products and services to power their businesses. ### Inclusive Team Culture Here at AWS, it’s in our nature to learn and be curious. Our employee-led affinity groups foster a culture of inclusion that empower us to be proud of our differences. Ongoing events and learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon conferences, inspire us to never stop embracing our uniqueness. ### Work/Life Balance We value work-life harmony. Achieving success at work should never come at the expense of sacrifices at home, which is why we strive for flexibility as part of our working culture. When we feel supported in the workplace and at home, there’s nothing we can’t achieve in the cloud. ### Mentorship and Career Growth We’re continuously raising our performance bar as we strive to become Earth’s Best Employer. That’s why you’ll find endless knowledge-sharing, mentorship and other career-advancing resources here to help you develop into a better-rounded professional. ### Diverse Experiences Amazon values diverse experiences. Even if you do not meet all of the preferred qualifications and skills listed in the job description, we encourage candidates to apply. If your career is just starting, hasn’t followed a traditional path, or includes alternative experiences, don’t let it stop you from applying. ## At a glance - Posted by the employer: Jun 22, 2026 - First seen by OpenNash: Oct 25, 2026 - Last checked: Nov 8, 2026 - Listed for: 139 days - Location: US, VA, Arlington[Apply on Amazon’s careers site →](https://www.amazon.jobs/en/jobs/10454889/senior-security-solutions-architect-aws-global-government-sa-specialists) ## Hiring at Amazon - Open jobs: 21,930 - New in the last 7 days: After two weekly collections - Tracked since: Jul 10, 2026 [All Amazon jobs](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/) · [Weekly hiring report](/reports/hiring/) ## More jobs at Amazon ### [Senior Software Development Engineer, Leo Security](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/a933a84fb8939b5ac760/) US, VA, Arlington ### [Senior Solution Architect, Amazon Ads - Publisher Technology (PubTech)](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/152bf9e921ed169f49a3/) US, VA, Arlington ### [Senior Solution Architect, US-Healthcare](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/055c649f5c2d6962537b/) US, VA, Arlington ### [Senior Solutions Architect, Nonprofit Financial Institutions and Credit Unions](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/acc92c59f0b782fe640e/) US, VA, Arlington ### [Senior Security Solutions Architect, AWS Security & Networking - North America](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/c95527b48a7ea99d2e98/) US, CA, San Francisco ## Similar jobs at other companies ### [Enterprise Solutions Architect - AWS (HHS OIG)](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/general-dynamics/jobs/fc8e66f999166fcf7709/) General Dynamics · Falls Church, VA, US ### [AWS Solutions Architect, Global Banking & Markets, Cloud Platform](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/goldman-sachs-group/jobs/d7ce390a11e250fe19c6/) Goldman Sachs Group · Dallas, United States ### [Lead Software Engineer AWS](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/jpmorganchase/jobs/f1fb27b65665be2ce4d4/) JPMorganChase · Wilmington, DE, United States ### [Infrastructure Engineer III - Terraform, AWS](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/jpmorganchase/jobs/6d104f18d6e89cf2cea5/) JPMorganChase · Tampa, FL, United States ### [Cloud Solutions Architect - Azure Data & AI Solutions](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/microsoft/jobs/61a310b4dd84e7a5c7cb/) Microsoft · United States, Georgia, Atlanta, Texas, Las Colinas, North Carolina, Charlotte [Jobs in Arlington, VA](/locations/us/va/arlington/)[Jobs in Virginia](/locations/us-va/)[Security jobs](/functions/security/) OpenNash lists jobs from employers’ own careers sites and does not handle applications.
