Responsibilities

Design, build, and operate scalable IAM services and APIs spanning identity lifecycle, access requests, entitlement/role management and access certifications. Build privileged access management (PAM) capabilities — credential vaulting/rotation, session control, and secrets management and just-in-time (JIT) access flows that grant elevated, time-bound entitlements and revoke them automatically. Model and secure non-human/workload identities (NHI) — service accounts, agents, workloads, and machine credentials — including issuance, rotation, and lifecycle governance. Develop full-stack features, backend services and modern web front-ends that deliver intuitive self-service and administrative experiences for IAM. Build and manage containerized workloads with Kubernetes, Docker, and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform); operate services in a full DevOps model (monitor, troubleshoot, continuously improve). Integrate across identity sources, directories, and downstream applications using SCIM, REST, and event-driven patterns. Partner with governance and compliance teams to embed SoD, least-privilege, and audit controls (SOX, NIST, SOC 2) into the platform. Write clean, maintainable, secure code; participate in design and code reviews; and champion secure SDLC practices. Collaborate with cross-functional teams across security, infrastructure, product, and engineering to ensure platform integrity and trustworthiness. Create and maintain technical documentation, runbooks, and enablement materials. Design for significant features, mentor junior engineers, and drive technical direction and continuous improvement across the platform.

Requirements

SMTS: 5+ years of professional software development experience building distributed systems in SaaS, PaaS, or IaaS environments. Full-stack development proficiency: strong backend skills in Java, Go, and/or Python, plus front-end experience with modern frameworks (e.g., React). Solid understanding of the IAM domain, identity governance/lifecycle, authentication, authorization, RBAC/entitlement models, privileged access management including just-in-time access and common protocols (OAuth2, OIDC, SAML, SCIM, LDAP). Experience designing and consuming REST APIs (JSON/XML, OpenAPI/Swagger) and integrating heterogeneous systems. Strong experience on public cloud platforms (AWS/Azure/GCP), including containers (Docker, Kubernetes) and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform). Hands-on experience with CI/CD and source control (Git, Jenkins, or equivalent), including secure coding and defensive programming. Solid grasp of DevOps practices, monitoring, and ownership of production systems in high-availability environments. Strong problem-solving, debugging, communication, and collaboration skills. Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.

Preferred qualifications

Experience integrating AI/agentic capabilities into IAM workflows or user experiences. Experience with globally distributed teams and large enterprises. Familiarity with commercial IAM platforms (e.g., SailPoint, Okta, CyberArk, Active Directory/EntraID) as a consumer or integrator, not required as a specialty. Posting Statement
