Engineering Manager (Identity)
We are seeking an Engineering Manager to lead a team responsible for building and operating secure, reliable identity and access management capabilities. You will provide technical direction and people leadership across authentication, authorisation, user lifecycle management, identity governance, and related platform services. Working closely with product, security, infrastructure, and compliance partners, you will help shape a clear engineering strategy that supports both customer needs and organisational goals.
Your responsibilities will include setting team priorities, managing delivery plans, and ensuring that projects are completed to a high standard. You will support engineers through regular coaching, feedback, career development, and thoughtful performance management, while fostering an inclusive and collaborative environment. You will also contribute to architecture and design discussions, promote engineering best practices, and ensure services are scalable, observable, resilient, and secure. A key part of the role will be balancing feature delivery with operational excellence, technical debt reduction, incident readiness, and continuous improvement.
The successful candidate will have experience managing and developing software engineering teams, ideally in a platform, security, identity, or similarly complex technical domain. You should be comfortable working with distributed systems, APIs, cloud infrastructure, authentication protocols, access controls, and risk-based security practices. Strong communication and stakeholder management skills are essential, along with the ability to translate strategic objectives into practical execution plans. You will be expected to make sound decisions in ambiguous situations, encourage ownership, and build effective relationships across technical and non-technical teams. Experience working in an agile environment and delivering highly available, security-sensitive services would be advantageous.
