About the team
The Appsec Acquisitions team partners with M&A organizations within Amazon during the post-close onboarding of newly acquired companies. These companies internalize into Amazon’s infrastructure more quickly than by utilizing the existing process of leveraging volunteer security certifiers. The application security bar of the onboarded companies will be higher due to having dedicated security engineers providing application security reviews, architecture design guidance, and internalization planning support.
