Your Role

The Identity and Access Management team is responsible for designing, engineering, and operating enterprise identity services that enable secure, scalable, and seamless access across Stellarus’ technology ecosystem. The team drives Identity Lifecycle Management, Identity Governance, Privileged Access Management, authentication, authorization, automation, and Zero Trust capabilities while partnering across the enterprise to support digital transformation, regulatory compliance, secure software delivery, and responsible AI adoption.

The Senior Manager, Identity Platform Engineering will report to the Sr. Director, Identity & Access Management. In this role, you will help shape the future of Stellarus’ identity platform by engineering secure, automated, and scalable IAM capabilities that support hybrid cloud, SaaS, on-premises, application, privileged, service, machine, and AI-enabled access patterns.

You will partner with teams to integrate identity into modern software delivery practices, accelerate automation through DevOps and AI, and deliver programmatic identity services that can be consumed by development teams through self-service, least-privileged, time-bound, and policy-governed patterns.
