As the Identity Access Management (IAM) Architect, you will report directly to the Head of Cloud Security and lead IAM initiatives across our workforce, customer, and partner environments. We have embraced Zero Trust principles, incorporating SPIRE, Open Policy Agent (OPA), and a custom group management engine into our stack.

You will take ownership of the complete IAM lifecycle, transforming our existing infrastructure into a scalable and modern ecosystem that acts as a competitive asset for our business operations.

Your Responsibilities:

  • Design and advocate for the target-state IAM architecture and roadmap, ensuring alignment with our overall business strategy and security objectives.
  • Oversee the assessment, selection, and implementation of new IAM technologies and products (IGA, PAM, AM, Directory Services).
  • Establish and enforce IAM policies, standards, and procedures within our cloud-first infrastructure.
  • Provide architectural direction for complex access control models, role engineering, and segregation of duties (SoD) compliance.
  • Develop solutions for Federation/SSO, ensuring secure and intuitive access for partners and customers.
  • Possess a profound understanding of access models such as RBAC, ABAC, and PBAC.
