Your Role
As a Senior IAM & PAM Engineer, you will contribute to the design, implementation, and day-to-day operation of enterprise Identity and Access Management (IAM), Single Sign-On (SSO), and Privileged Access Management (PAM) solutions.

- You have deep hands-on experience with SSO design and implementation across Keycloak and Azure Entra ID using OIDC and SAML, including identity federation and brokered trust configurations.
- You have proven expertise in Privileged Access Management integration, covering vault roles, approval workflows, SSH and database access controls, session isolation, and auditing — with experience in platforms such as Infisical PAM or similar solutions.
- You bring a strong IAM governance background, including least-privilege access principles, RBAC and ABAC models, access reviews, attribute and claim governance, and compliance documentation.
- You have demonstrated experience implementing passwordless authentication using passkeys (FIDO2 and WebAuthn) with PKCE-backed flows and robust fallback and recovery strategies.
- You have experience with automated provisioning and deprovisioning processes, including cross-system synchronization of users, groups, and roles.
- You are proficient in monitoring, logging, incident response, and creating operational runbooks for IAM and security platforms.
- You can produce architecture diagrams, training materials, and handover documentation for IAM and security teams, and you bring strong problem-solving, communication, and stakeholder management skills with the ability to lead end-to-end IAM projects from design through to implementation.
