About The Job We are looking for an experienced IAM Tech Lead to provide technical leadership across our Identity & Access Management landscape and accelerate our journey towards a more automated, standardized and engineering-driven IAM environment.

You will help define the technical direction across Identity Governance & Administration, Directory Services, Authentication & Federation, Privileged Access Management, PKI and IAM Engineering & Automation, working closely with platform and service owners.

A key focus will be to reduce manual IAM operations through automation and standardization, using APIs, scripting, workflow orchestration, Infrastructure as Code and CI/CD.

Drive the technical implementation of the IAM Service Intake and Automation Model, standardizing and automating IAM requests across Jira, ServiceNow, IGA and other IAM platforms.

You will establish reusable engineering patterns for integrations, automation, testing, deployment and monitoring, while improving the resilience and operational readiness of IAM services.

As a hands‑on technical leader, you will lead complex IAM designs and modernization initiatives, guide engineers and contribute directly to integrations, automation and troubleshooting.

Our IAM landscape includes Omada, Microsoft Active Directory and Entra ID, Ping Identity, Delinea PAM, HashiCorp Vault/Boundary and enterprise PKI.

What You Will Help Drive IAM Technical Leadership Provide technical direction across the IAM landscape, lead complex solution designs and establish common technical standards in collaboration with IAM platform and service owners.
