Cyber Security Design Engineer - IAM & Secrets Management
We are seeking a Cyber Security Design Engineer specialising in Identity and Access Management (IAM) and secrets management to help design, implement and improve secure technology services across a complex enterprise environment. You will develop practical, scalable security designs that protect identities, privileged accounts, applications, infrastructure and sensitive credentials throughout their lifecycle. Working closely with architects, engineers, technology teams and business stakeholders, you will translate security requirements into robust technical solutions aligned with recognised security principles and regulatory expectations.
Your responsibilities will include defining IAM and secrets management patterns, standards and reference architectures; designing solutions for authentication, authorisation, privileged access, identity governance, service accounts, machine identities and cryptographic secrets; and assessing existing capabilities to identify risks and opportunities for improvement. You will produce high-quality design documentation, security assessments, implementation guidance and technical recommendations. The role will also involve supporting technology and delivery teams, reviewing proposed designs, contributing to threat modelling and risk assessments, and helping establish effective controls for the storage, rotation, monitoring and emergency recovery of credentials, keys, certificates and tokens.
The successful candidate will have substantial experience in cyber security engineering, solution design or security architecture, with strong hands-on knowledge of IAM technologies and secrets management platforms. You should understand concepts such as least privilege, role-based and attribute-based access control, federation, single sign-on, multi-factor authentication, privileged access management, identity lifecycle management and public key infrastructure. Experience with cloud environments, APIs, automation, infrastructure-as-code, directory services and DevSecOps practices is highly desirable. Strong communication and stakeholder-management skills are essential, as is the ability to explain complex technical issues clearly and make sound, risk-based decisions. Relevant professional certifications or demonstrable equivalent experience would be advantageous.
