Connect to your opportunity.
We are seeking Identity and Access Management (IAM) architects and engineers. The candidate will have a strong background in architecture and engineering, with the ability to design and implement identity and access solutions, conduct testing of the solution, and optionally maintain and operate the technology. This role will involve working closely with cross-functional teams to ensure seamless deployment and integration of identity solutions, as well as contributing to the ongoing operation and maintenance of IAM technologies across our clients. As part of this role, you will be expected to:
- Define IAM use cases, functional and non-functional solution requirements, and technical specifications e.g., user authentication, access control, integration, performance and scalability requirements and specifications.
- Design and architect IAM solutions by creating high-level and low-level designs that align with business objectives and comply with industry cybersecurity standards (e.g., NIST). For example, this includes:
- Creating high-level and low-level system architecture diagrams with technical descriptions of each component.
- Defining the dependencies to implement the solution, e.g., network rules, server resources, storage requirements.
- Defining the system specifications to support optimal performance.
- Integrating workflows with third-party systems and security tools, such as Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solutions, multi-factor authentication solutions, and cloud platforms like Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Azure.
- Defining the Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, and Informed (RACI) matrix to operate and maintain the solution’s infrastructure components.
- Develop technical documentation for IAM implementations including process documentation to enable operation of the solution e.g, defining processes which cover user onboarding, access requests, identity governance, approval workflows, authentication workflows, provisioning/deprovisioning tasks.
- Implement IAM solutions:
- Install solution components in on-premise environments where relevant, or configuration of cloud components (and scripting / coding of plug-ins / extensions for cloud solutions)
- Work with IT infrastructure teams (e.g, Networks, Entpoints) to ensure pre-requisites and dependencies have been met and are in place.
- Integrate IAM solutions with existing enterprise applications/systems such as directories, cloud applications, HR systems and third-party identity providers.
- Execute unit, integration, functional and non-functional testing for IAM solutions. As part of this, troubleshoot and resolve issues (e.g, authentication failures, access policy conflicts, user provisioning errors etc.) by working with vendors.
- Deliver services post-implementation, from hyper-care support, resolving additional issues in production through advanced troubleshooting and debugging to ensure smooth operation.
- Conduct knowledge transfer to client IAM teams through technical training sessions on operating and maintaining the solution, empowering clients to effectively manage and support the IAM environment.
