DESCRIPTION
Amazon's Security & Privacy Regulatory Enablement (SPRe) team is the single regulatory enablement engine for Amazon's security, privacy, and AI compliance needs. We take any new regulatory requirement from initial publication to demonstrated compliance across three domains — Security, Privacy, and AI — using a repeatable, scalable operating model (Anticipate Enable Assure).
Amazon operates regulated payment entities across six major jurisdictions — US, UK, EU, India, Singapore, and MENA — each subject to distinct security compliance regimes including PCI DSS, local regulatory security frameworks, and supervisory authority examinations. The Payments Security Compliance (PSC) function within SPRe manages the full audit and compliance lifecycle for these entities.
We are seeking an experienced Payments Security Compliance Lead to own and scale the operational delivery of payments security audits, regulatory examinations, and compliance programmes across all regulated jurisdictions. This is a people management role leading a team of security compliance specialists, with responsibility for audit lifecycle management, regulatory relationship stewardship, operational excellence, team development, and delivery metrics.
The ideal candidate brings deep expertise in payments security compliance (PCI DSS, financial services regulatory regimes), has led audit/compliance teams at scale across multiple jurisdictions, and can build a high-performing, geographically distributed team. You will own the day-to-day delivery of payments security audits globally, manage relationships with QSAs, external auditors, and regulatory examiners, and drive continuous improvement in compliance operations.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Compliance Jobs
Align your degree to the role
Compliance officers need a directly related degree, not just any bachelor's. A law, finance, or accounting credential maps cleanly to regulatory roles. A general business degree may trigger an employer's RFE concern, so confirm the connection before applying.
Verify prevailing wage before negotiating
Your employer must certify your offered salary meets the DOL prevailing wage for your specific Compliance role and location. Run the OFLC Wage Search before salary discussions so you know the floor and can negotiate from an informed position.
Target regulated-industry employers for faster sponsorship
Banks, insurance carriers, pharmaceutical companies, and publicly traded firms maintain dedicated Compliance teams and established H-1B1 visa filing workflows. These employers already understand LCA certification requirements, reducing back-and-forth delays during your offer process.
Search verified H-1B1 sponsors on Migrate Mate
Filter Compliance roles by H-1B1 Chile sponsorship history on Migrate Mate. You'll see which employers have filed LCAs for Compliance positions, so you're applying to companies already set up to sponsor your visa rather than educating them from scratch.
Get your LCA certified before your consular appointment
Unlike H-1B visa, your employer files the LCA with DOL and obtains certification before you appear at the consulate, not after. Confirm your employer has completed this step and received the certified LCA before you schedule your visa interview in Santiago.
Use O*NET to document specialty occupation eligibility
Pull the O*NET occupation profile for your specific Compliance title, such as Compliance Officer or Regulatory Affairs Specialist. The profile shows the required education level and job zone, giving your employer concrete documentation that the role meets specialty occupation criteria.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Compliance role qualify as a specialty occupation under the H-1B1 Chile visa?
Yes. Compliance Officer, Regulatory Affairs Specialist, and similar titles typically require a bachelor's degree in law, finance, accounting, or a directly related field, satisfying the specialty occupation definition. Your employer documents this requirement in the Labor Condition Application filed with DOL. Roles where any degree field is accepted regardless of subject may face additional scrutiny.
How does the H-1B1 Chile visa differ from H-1B for Compliance professionals?
The H-1B1 Chile visa skips the lottery entirely and is processed at the U.S. consulate in Santiago rather than through USCIS. The annual cap is 1,400 and has never filled. H-1B requires a USCIS petition and subjects applicants to a randomized lottery with roughly 25% selection odds. For Chilean Compliance professionals with a qualifying job offer, H-1B1 is the faster, more predictable path.
How do I find U.S. employers who will sponsor a Compliance role on H-1B1 Chile?
Migrate Mate lets you search Compliance job listings filtered by employers with verified H-1B1 Chile sponsorship history. Targeting companies that have already filed LCAs for Compliance positions saves significant time because those employers understand the certification process and won't need to build it from the ground up for your offer.
Can my employer file the LCA for a remote Compliance role, and how does that affect my visa?
Yes, employers can file an LCA for a remote position, but the prevailing wage must reflect the location where you'll primarily perform the work, not the employer's headquarters. If you're working from a U.S. city rather than the employer's registered address, confirm the LCA lists your actual worksite. This directly affects your certified wage floor and your visa documentation.
What happens to my H-1B1 Chile status if my Compliance role changes significantly after I start working?
A material change to your job duties, location, or employer requires a new or amended LCA certification before the change takes effect. The H-1B1 visa is tied to the specific role and employer documented in the LCA. If your Compliance responsibilities expand substantially or you move to a different employer, your current visa no longer covers the new position and the filing process restarts.
