About This Role
Key Technical Requirements and Skills: - Expertise in identity and access management (IAM) technologies, including SSO, OIDC, SAML, and provisioning protocols - Strong background in distributed systems, reliability engineering, and chaos engineering - Experience with infrastructure as code (IaC) tools like Terraform and CloudFormation - Proficiency in programming languages like Python, Go, or Java Team/Project Information: - Part of the Infrastructure team dedicated to building resilient, distributed identity services - Collaborate with Security, DevOps, Data, and Product teams to provide secure access management solutions Unique/Notable Aspects of the Role: - Responsible for building a high-performance, invisible identity infrastructure to enable seamless access for a large number of users and non-human identities - Implement "Governance Wrappers" for cloud provisioning to ensure resources are integrated into lifecycle management systems -
What you can expect As an Identity Platform Engineer, you will lead the architecture and engineering of our global identity fabric. Your primary objective is to build a high-performance, invisible identity infrastructure that enables seamless access for number of users and non-human identities without manual intervention. You will ensure that identity is never a bottleneck for engineering velocity but a high-availability utility that supports our digital transformation goals. About the Team We are an Infrastructure team dedicated to building resilient, distributed identity services. We partner with Security, DevOps, Data, and Product teams to abstract away the complexity of access management. We provide "paved-road" automation patterns that make secure access effortless for developers and invisible to the end user. Responsibilities Platform-Orchestration: Architect a unified, API-driven control plane that orchestrates identity lifecycles across a fragmented ecosystem of SaaS, Cloud (AWS, OCI), and data warehouses (Snowflake). Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) Engineering: Designing and implementing "Governance Wrappers" for cloud provisioning, ensuring resources deployed with Terraform or CloudFormation integrate seamlessly into lifecycle management systems. Distributed-Systems Reliability: Ensure 99.99% uptime for authentication and authorization services, implementing redundancy, failover patterns, and "Chaos Engineering" to test system resilience in production. NHI-Lifecycle Management: Designing the lifecycle framework for "NHI" service accounts, API keys, and AI agents ensures automated management of machine identities comparable to human user processes. Self-Service Enablement: Build and maintain an internal "Identity AppStore" and chat-driven request flows to reduce helpdesk volume and improve time-to-productivity for new hires. Data-Driven Optimization: Utilize usage-aware intelligence to independently reclaim unused licenses and right-size over-provisioned infra
