Senior Security Engineer, Platform and IAM

The Senior Identity and Access Management (IAM) and Platform Engineer plays a critical role in designing, implementing, and maintaining secure, scalable, and user-centric identity and access solutions across the organization's technology ecosystem. This role sits at the intersection of security, infrastructure, and developer experience, ensuring that access controls are robust while enabling engineering teams to move quickly and safely.

As a senior member of the engineering team, this role collaborates with the Leads on overall strategy and architecture of IAM and platform services, helping to define best practices, drive automation, and help with the integration of identity systems across cloud and on-prem environments. The role also supports broader platform engineering efforts by contributing to tooling, infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD pipelines, and service orchestration.

• Design and implementation of identity and access management solutions, including federated identity, SSO, RBAC, and lifecycle management.
• Collaborate on the integration of IAM with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure), SaaS applications, and internal services.
• Partner with security, Dev Ops, and application teams to enforce least privilege access, auditability, and compliance.
• Build and maintain platform tooling to manage secrets, certificates, authentication, and authorization flows.
• Automate IAM provisioning and de-provisioning using infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD pipelines.
• Participate in incident response and root cause analysis related to identity or platform infrastructure.

• Collaborate with lead engineers on operational support of security tools (Email Security, SASE, EDR, SIEM, etc.).
• Collaborate with lead engineers to integrate security best practices into CI/CD pipelines and cloud infrastructure (Azure, GCP).
• Assist in securing container platforms (e.g., Kubernetes, Docker) and infrastructure as code (Terraform, Cloud Formation, etc.).
• Participate in threat modeling and security reviews of new infrastructure components.

• Stay current with industry trends and threat landscapes related to identity security and platform resilience.
• Collaborate with SOC and security analysts to investigate IAM-related incidents.
• Develop scripts and automation (e.g., Python, Power Shell) to enhance identity workflows and platform security.
• Monitor system logs, access events, and security alerts from IAM and cloud platforms.
• Maintain documentation for IAM processes, security controls, and supported systems.
