IAM Architect

We are looking for an experienced IAM Architect to assess identity and access risk across a complex enterprise environment. This person will evaluate Entra ID, Active Directory, privileged access, authentication, federation, entitlements, and identity integrations to identify material attack paths and areas of business exposure. They need to understand the broader IAM ecosystem beyond Microsoft, including platforms such as SailPoint, CyberArk, and Okta, and be able to evaluate how identity connects with HR, infrastructure, cloud, applications, and other business processes. This is an architecture and risk-focused role, not an AD/Entra ID configuration position.

Day-to-Day Assess Entra ID, Active Directory, and the broader IAM environment. Evaluate privileged access, authentication, federation, conditional access, service identities, and entitlements. Identify identity attack paths, excessive privileges, trust relationships, and business exposure. Assess complex multi-forest and multi-tenant identity environments. Evaluate IAM platforms such as SailPoint, CyberArk, and Okta alongside the Microsoft ecosystem. Perform or assess attack-path analysis using BloodHound or equivalent techniques/tooling. Work with HR and other business teams to understand identity governance, provisioning, and access processes. Evaluate risks created by legacy environments and post-acquisition identity integrations. Determine which IAM findings represent material business risk versus lower-priority configuration issues. Recommend practical remediation and validate corrective actions. Translate technical IAM findings into a clear picture of identity-related business risk and exposure. Coordinate findings with cloud, infrastructure, application, and enterprise-risk teams.
