Our customers trust us to handle their data with air-tight security measures, which is something that we guarantee. AWS is growing rapidly, and we are looking for a Data Center Security Specialist to join our expanding Infrastructure Operations team. ### Key job responsibilities As a Data Center Security Specialist (individual contributor) you will be tasked with driving operational security excellence in several separate facilities located within a short driving distance. Your constant vigilance will discover physical security gaps and shortcomings, which you will drive to fix immediately. You will interface and direct vendors involved in new security construction, repairs, daily security operations and patrols, and planning. You will extract metrics and observe improvements by looking at hard data. You will make suggestions on improving electronic surveillance and access controls. You will direct efforts to educate data center occupants on false alarm reductions. You will write and implement security process and procedures. Your position will require you to write reports, create presentations and communicate with management on the status of physical security operations. ### About the team AWS Infrastructure Services (AIS) owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. In other words, we’re the people who keep the cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help. You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion. ### Diverse Experiences AWS 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. 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 (gender diversity) conferences, inspire us to never stop embracing our uniqueness. ### Mentorship & 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. ### 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. ## At a glance - Posted by the employer: Oct 8, 2026 - First seen by OpenNash: Oct 11, 2026 - Last checked: Oct 11, 2026 - Listed for: 3 days - Location: US, VA, Woodford[Apply on Amazon’s careers site →](https://www.amazon.jobs/en/jobs/10573946/data-center-security-specialist-dc-security) ## More jobs at Amazon ### [2027 Applied Science Internship - Recommender Systems/ Information Retrieval (Machine Learning) - United States, PhD Student Science Recruiting](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/ff40f3fb9994d287be5b/) US, WA, Seattle ### [2027 Applied Science Internship - Reinforcement Learning & Optimization (Machine Learning) - United States, PhD Student Science Recruiting](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/ec62591ec9ad3128e879/) US, WA, Seattle ### [2027 Summer Applied Science Internship - Information & Knowledge Management (Machine Learning)- United States, PhD Student Science Recruiting](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/7128f74c5feed87f1056/) US, WA, Seattle ### [ABM Program Manager, AI, Data & Operational Solutions, ABM Global Practice Team](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/427e3089d280c572540f/) GB, London ### [AI Data Associate (Dutch-English Bilingual), Artificial General Intelligence Data Services](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/140bb0f8f998b0ab1ccd/) NL, Den Haag ## Similar jobs at other companies ### [Sr. Consultant, Info Security, App, Data, Cloud Security - Data Security](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/cargill/jobs/ecfb1c93696b3200a884/) Cargill · Atlanta, Georgia ### [Part Time Security Officer - Security - Embassy Suites Tampa Downtown Convention Center](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/hilton-worldwide-holdings/jobs/b4fd26c5958251fef532/) Hilton Worldwide Holdings · Tampa, FL, United States ### [Sr. Consultant, Info Security, App, Data, Cloud Security - AI](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/cargill/jobs/8e1ff412d3a228582619/) Cargill · Atlanta, Georgia ### [Physical Security Operations Center Lead](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/lockheed-martin/jobs/084b61405b1025f6798d/) Lockheed Martin · Orlando, FL ### [Site Security Coordinator, Distribution Center](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/genuine-parts/jobs/e8bb4a929b6f2253bb30/) Genuine Parts · Manheim, PA OpenNash lists jobs from employers’ own careers sites and does not handle applications.
