Job description

The Senior IAM Engineer owns and operates Enpal's workforce Identity & Access Management in Microsoft Entra ID. You ensure secure and scalable access through Conditional Access, a strong admin model, and reliable identity lifecycle (Joiner/Mover/Leaver) processes. You enable least-privilege access via RBAC, PIM/PAM, and recurring access reviews, while supporting secure collaboration and sharing.

Policy Development and Governance:

  • Define and maintain IAM standards and guardrails for Entra ID (authentication, Conditional Access principles, privileged access, external collaboration).
  • Establish and maintain the admin model (role design, separation of duties, privileged role assignment approach) and enforce least privilege through RBAC.
  • Own processes for access reviews, exceptions, and evidence for audits related to identity controls.

IAM Engineering and Operations:

  • Operate and continuously improve Microsoft Entra ID (tenant configuration, role design, groups, identity settings) as the central identity platform.
  • Design, implement, and maintain Conditional Access policies (including rollout strategy, exclusions, and safe operations).
  • Build and operate Joiner/Mover/Leaver lifecycle processes, ensuring timely provisioning and deprovisioning and reducing manual access handling.
  • Own Privileged Access controls:
  • Implement and operate PIM/PAM (activation workflows, approval, time-bound access, role eligibility).
  • Manage break-glass accounts and emergency access procedures (creation, secure storage, testing cadence).
  • Manage and govern identity objects and special cases:
  • Guest accounts and external collaboration controls
  • Shared mailboxes / mail-enabled objects / Distribution groups
  • Service/admin accounts
  • Microsoft 365 Groups / Security groups
  • Drive operational quality: documentation, runbooks, change planning, and troubleshooting of access/provisioning issues.

Collaboration and Stakeholder Engagement:

  • Partner with Corp IT, HR, and app owners to ensure identity data quality and smooth onboarding/offboarding.
  • Advise teams on access design: RBAC models, group strategy, and reducing direct user entitlements.
  • Coordinate with Security and IT stakeholders to safely deploy IAM changes and minimize business disruption.

Awareness and Training:

  • Provide guidance to admins and end users on secure access practices (MFA, Conditional Access behavior, guest collaboration).
  • Create and maintain clear internal documentation for access requests, privileged access workflows, and review procedures.

Requirements

  • Strong hands-on experience with Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) administration and identity operations.
  • Deep practical experience implementing Conditional Access (design, rollout, troubleshooting).
  • Experience building and operating Joiner/Mover/Leaver processes and lifecycle automation.
  • Strong Experience running access reviews and implementing RBAC (role/group modeling and governance).
  • Experience with Privileged Identity Management (PIM) and privileged access patterns (admin model, break-glass).
  • Comfortable working with automation and APIs (e.g., PowerShell, Graph API) to scale IAM operations.

Soft Skills:

  • Structured, reliable, and detail-oriented with strong operational ownership.
  • Clear communicator who can align stakeholders on guardrails and practical solutions.
  • Pragmatic problem-solver with a continuous improvement mindset.
