About the position
The Imperium Network Traffic and Security (INTAS) team, under Operations Technology Infrastructure Engineering (OTIE) organization is looking for an experienced Software Development Engineer to join team in Austin. The INTAS team provides network security solutions to Amazon fulfillment centers (FCs) using Access Control Lists (ACLs) and VLANs deployed on networking devices. ACLs act as a gatekeeper, allowing or blocking network traffic flow in and out of FCs based on predefined rules. Changes in the underlying infrastructure necessitate updates in deployed ACLs to ensure seamless operation of FC solutions. To maintain the right security posture while enabling FC solutions to get network connectivity within defined Service Level Agreements (SLA), the INTAS team focuses on two aspects: 1) ACL Freshness: the frequency with which ACLs are deployed to network devices, 2) ACL effectiveness: determines if the ACLs defined by the FC solutions using OTIE tools are used effectively and are not adding unnecessary complexity to the OTIE network.
