The Impact Your work will directly determine the enterprise's ability to survive and recover from a catastrophic cyber event. by hardening our Active Directory and ensuring our Cloud Identity configurations can be restored in minutes, you are the ultimate safety net for the organization.

You will move beyond "provisioning users" to solving the hardest problems in IT: "How do we bring the company back online if everything goes dark?" You will have the authority to challenge existing architectures, implement cutting-edge recovery tools, and lead the strategy for Identity Resilience at a global scale. We are seeking a seasoned Lead IAM Engineer to serve as the guardian of our Identity ecosystem.

In this strategic role, you will architect the Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery (BC/DR) strategies for the enterprise’s most critical infrastructure.

Automate the collection of evidence for access controls, ensuring we are "audit-ready" 365 days a year. Broad IAM Engineering: Serve as a Subject Matter Expert (SME) across all IAM domains. Troubleshooting complex issues that span across SSO (Okta), Directory Services (AD/LDAP), Governance (SailPoint/Saviynt), and PAM. Identity Integrity & Monitoring: Implement advanced monitoring to detect configuration drift, unauthorized changes, or replication failures. Ensure that the "Identity Data" is consistent across HR feeds, Directories, and downstream apps. Incident Management: Act as the Major Incident Commander for identity-related outages. Lead Root Cause Analysis (RCA) processes and drive the implementation of preventative fixes. Required Qualifications Experience: 10+ years of total IT experience, with 7+ years specialized in Identity & Access Management . Broad IAM Expertise: You must be a "Full Stack" Identity Engineer with hands-on experience in at least three of the following areas: Directory Services: Deep expert-level knowledge of Active Directory (Forest/Domain architecture, replication, GPOs) and LDAP. Access Management: Strong familiarity with Okta or Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD). IGA: Experience with SailPoint or Saviynt (Identity Governance & Administration). PAM: Familiarity with CyberArk or BeyondTrust . Resilience & Recovery: Proven experience performing Forest Recoveries in Active Directory or architecting DR failovers for global IAM platforms. Familiarity with AD recovery tools is a plus. Compliance Frameworks: Strong understanding of regulatory requirements such as SOX, NIST 800-53, and GDPR .
