DESCRIPTION
At Amazon, we are obsessed with customer trust. The Security Policy team supports this vision by developing, maintaining, and governing Amazon's enterprise security policies and standards — setting clear expectations for Amazonians and establishing the foundation for consistent, enforceable security practices across the company. We are seeking an experienced, self-motivated Security Industry Specialist who will help mature and scale our security policy framework.
We define the security policy landscape for Amazon, ensuring policies and standards are clear, actionable, and aligned with evolving threats, regulatory requirements, and business needs. Our mission includes driving policy quality improvements, enabling automated enforcement, and instilling a culture of security awareness across the enterprise. To accomplish this, we work with Amazon organizations to translate complex security requirements into practical, well-governed policy artifacts.
Amazon Security is looking for a Security Industry Specialist to join the Security Policy team and drive the development, governance, and continuous improvement of Amazon's security policies and standards. This role will own key policy domains, partner with cross-functional stakeholders to identify gaps and emerging risks, and lead initiatives to modernize how policies are authored, reviewed, and enforced. In this role, you will work with cross-functional teams of technical and non-technical stakeholders to define and operationalize policy strategy and interpret, communicate, and drive full lifecycle security policy projects. You will champion automation, AI/ML, and innovative tooling to transform traditional policy processes — enabling scalable, real-time enforcement and reducing manual effort across the policy lifecycle.
Key job responsibilities
- Develop, author, and maintain enterprise security policies and standards that set clear, actionable expectations for Amazonians.
- Drive policy quality improvements through structured review cycles, stakeholder engagement, and alignment with industry best practices.
- Identify policy gaps by analyzing emerging threats, regulatory changes, and internal risk assessments, and develop new or updated policy content to address them.
- Partner with cross-functional teams — including privacy, legal, compliance, and engineering — to ensure policies are practical, enforceable, and aligned with business objectives.
- Lead initiatives to establish the foundation for automated policy enforcement, working with technical teams to translate policy requirements into machine-readable formats.
- Identify and drive opportunities to innovate the policy lifecycle through automation, tooling, and AI/ML — reducing manual effort and enabling scalable, real-time policy enforcement.
- Serve as a subject matter expert on security policy, providing consultation and guidance to internal customers navigating policy requirements.
- Manage the policy exception process, including reviewing exception requests, assessing risk, and driving resolution.
- Develop and deliver policy awareness and education programs to drive adoption and understanding across the organization.
Understand and manage cross-functional requirements to translate them into optimal policy solutions. Be comfortable with hands-on day-to-day problem solving and implementing quick and effective action plans to meet short- and long-term priorities.

Entry Level Industry Analyst Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an entry level industry analyst job?
Start by building a foundation in data analysis, market research, and reporting tools like Excel, Tableau, or Power BI. Employers at this level look for candidates who can demonstrate analytical thinking through coursework projects, internships, or independent research samples. Tailoring your resume to show specific findings you have surfaced, even from academic work, gives you a concrete edge over candidates who list skills without evidence.
Which companies hire entry level industry analysts?
Companies hiring entry level industry analysts right now include Esri, TikTok, and TSMC, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. At this level, hiring comes from a broad mix of employers, including consultancies, financial services firms, technology companies, and research organizations that bring on junior analysts to support data gathering and competitive intelligence functions.
Are there remote entry level industry analyst jobs?
Yes, though availability varies by employer and industry. About 45% of entry level industry analyst openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, giving new graduates real flexibility in where they work. Many fully remote roles still expect candidates to be responsive during core business hours and comfortable collaborating through shared data tools and video calls.
Are these new grad industry analyst jobs?
Yes, the listings on this page include new grad, recent graduate, and junior industry analyst roles. A new grad friendly posting typically welcomes zero to two years of experience and treats internships, capstone projects, or a portfolio of independent analysis as equivalent to full-time work history. Look for language like 'entry level,' 'new graduates welcome,' or 'training provided' as signals that the employer is open to candidates early in their careers.
Which industries hire the most entry level industry analysts?
Entry Level industry analyst roles concentrate in Technology & Software, Manufacturing, and Chemicals & Materials, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors tend to drive hiring at the junior level because they rely heavily on structured market research, competitive benchmarking, and data reporting functions that are well suited to recent graduates building foundational analytical skills.
