Senior Identity Security Engineer

Reference: 0gd2nu62rfk0gohhv921

We are seeking a Senior Identity Security Engineer to design, implement and strengthen identity and access controls across a complex technology environment. In this role, you will help protect critical systems, applications and data by developing secure, scalable identity solutions aligned with business and regulatory requirements. You will work closely with cybersecurity, infrastructure, application, cloud and risk teams to improve identity governance, authentication, authorisation and privileged access management.

Your responsibilities will include leading the engineering and administration of identity platforms, directory services, single sign-on, multi-factor authentication, lifecycle management and privileged access controls. You will define and enforce access policies, support role-based and attribute-based access models, and automate joiner, mover and leaver processes. You will also investigate identity-related security events, support incident response, identify control weaknesses and implement remediation plans. The role will involve contributing to architecture reviews, technical standards, threat modelling, audit activities and continuous improvements to identity security capabilities. You will be expected to document designs, procedures and operational guidance, while mentoring colleagues and providing technical leadership on complex initiatives.

The successful candidate will have substantial experience in identity and access management, cybersecurity engineering or a closely related discipline, with strong knowledge of authentication protocols and standards such as SAML, OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect and SCIM. Experience with cloud identity services, privileged access management, directory technologies, identity governance platforms and security automation is highly desirable. You should be comfortable scripting with tools such as PowerShell or Python and able to integrate identity services with enterprise applications and cloud platforms. Strong analytical, communication and stakeholder-management skills are essential, along with a practical understanding of security frameworks, access reviews, least privilege and regulatory controls. Relevant professional certifications in identity, cloud or information security would be advantageous.
