As an AVP, IAM AI Engineer, you will join a technical leadership team to design, operationalize, and automate identity controls for human and non-human actors. You will focus on building runtime controls, secrets workflows, and governance guardrails specifically for AI agents and agentic identities. Your daily work involves developing policy-as-code, establishing reference architectures for user-to-agent and agent-to-agent flows, and partnering with data science teams to embed authentication and authorization into new AI applications from the design phase. You will utilize technologies including Ping Identity, SailPoint, HashiCorp Vault, Python, Terraform, and CI/CD pipelines within AWS, Azure, or GCP environments. The role addresses the critical challenge of securing emerging AI systems by managing secrets, enforcing least-privilege access, and ensuring compliance in a regulated financial services environment while leading a team to scale these essential security capabilities.
