Amazon • Seattle, WA • 1w ago

Description

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world's most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud provider, trusted by millions of technology customers around the world - including the fastest-growing startups, largest enterprises, and leading government agencies.

We are looking for a talented attorney to join the AWS Legal team supporting infrastructure technology (development, supply chain, security and procurement) that all AWS cloud services and customers rely upon. You will work directly with business teams to develop and launch new hardware, manage its global supply chain, and resolve security, compliance, and other risk issues related to AWS infrastructure. You will also help identify, counsel on, and mitigate a wide array of commercial, operational, regulatory, and compliance issues.

We are looking for someone who is enthusiastic about technology, loves a challenge, demonstrates sound judgment in ambiguous situations, and effectively collaborates with peers, clients, and stakeholders.

This position will be based in Seattle, WA.

Key job responsibilities

Structuring, drafting, and negotiating complex commercial and technology-related agreements, including development, supply, manufacturing services, software licensing, services, and other bespoke agreements.

Supporting and directly advising business partners on legal, commercial, operational, regulatory, and other risks.

Developing, advising on, and implementing vendor engagement, contractual, and negotiation strategies.

Collaborating cross-functionally to identify and resolve commercial, operational, compliance, regulatory, security, safety, legal, and customer/vendor issues.

About the team

We raise the bar for innovation, resiliency, and security of AWS infrastructure technology by providing best-in-class legal service. We are business owners who bring a legal perspective, instead of solely providing legal advice. We drive delivery of the best outcomes for AWS customers by anticipating risk and balancing mitigation with the need for speed and innovation. Where possible, we solve for risk and speed simultaneously through creative thinking and durable mechanisms.
