IAM Operations Engineer (SRE & Cloud Security)

Infrastructure & Cloud Operations… Hybrid Identity Management: Manage and optimize the core identity footprint across enterprise Active Directory (AD/Azure AD) and AWS IAM (including AWS Organizations, IAM Identity Center, Service Control Policies, and complex cross-account roles). Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Maintain and deploy IAM resources, policies, and directory configurations using tools like Terraform or CloudFormation. SRE Mindset: Ensure the uptime, performance, and scalability of Identity systems. Proactively minimize operational “toil” through automation, scripting, and self-service tooling. CI/CD & Automation… Pipeline Management: Design and support CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins) to securely automate policy testing, deployment, and validation. Automated Governance: Implement guardrails and automated compliance scanning into the deployment pipelines to prevent privilege creep and misconfigurations before they reach production. Observability & Incident Response… Deep Telemetry: Establish comprehensive monitoring, logging, and alerting for all authentication and authorization paths using tools like Datadog, Splunk, Prometheus, ELK, or AWS CloudWatch/CloudTrail. Incident Handling & Post-Mortems: Act as a tier-3 escalation point for complex identity and authentication issues. Lead blameless post-mortems to identify root causes and build automated preventions for future outages

Strong Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) background to manage, scale, and secure our enterprise identity infrastructure. Ability to bridge the gap between traditional identity management (Active Directory) and modern cloud architectures (AWS) Instead of manually provisioning access, ability to build and maintain CI/CD pipelines to automate infrastructure changes, leverage observability frameworks to maintain platform health, and treat identity infrastructure as a highly available distributed system.
