TL;DR · Senior Cybersecurity Engineer, Identity Platform and Access Management

The Senior Cybersecurity Engineer – Identity Platform and Access Management joins the Enterprise Security organization to lead the development, deployment, and improvement of large-scale identity and access management systems. This role involves establishing identity frameworks that safeguard developers, services, and AI agents across cloud, on-premises, and managed device settings. Key responsibilities include defining reference architectures for secure authentication, architecting centralized token issuance services, and implementing advanced security controls like Conditional Access policies and Privileged Identity Management. The position requires expertise in OAuth 2.0, OIDC, SAML, and Zero Trust architecture to modernize authentication for agentic AI and developer-scale workflows. Candidates must possess extensive experience in platform engineering, federated identity standards, and securing automated service-to-service identities within complex, multi-tenant environments to ensure reliability and compliance.

What you'll do

  • Lead enterprise identity strategy and platform architecture for cloud, on-premises, and managed device environments.
  • Transition applications to modern authentication standards including OAuth 2.0, OIDC, and SAML.
  • Architect and stand up a centralized token issuance and validation service for developer and CLI workflows.
  • Establish agent identities to enable robust access control and auditability for automated and machine-assisted workflows.
  • Build and implement advanced security controls such as Conditional Access policies and Privileged Identity Management.
  • Scale device management and identity governance systems to support rapidly growing AI-powered operations.
  • Develop reference architectures for secure authentication across CLI, browser, and agentic workflows.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree or Master's degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science or a related field.
  • Over 12+ years of experience in platform or infrastructure engineering.
  • Extensive knowledge in authentication, authorization, and identity systems including modern token-based protocols, federated identity standards, and device attestation.
  • Demonstrable experience crafting and leading identity or access management platforms within large-scale organizations.
  • Solid understanding of Zero Trust architecture, identity-based attack techniques, and modern IAM controls.
  • Experience securing automated or computer-controlled workflows, including service-to-service identity and non-human access patterns.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills to drive architecture decisions across senior and executive audiences.
  • Established background in building token services or centralized auth platforms that run at enterprise scale with high availability and low latency (preferred).
