Participate in regular on‑call rotation to ensure 24x7 uptime for critical systems
What we look for in you
5+ years of experience building, iterating upon, and maintaining corporate IAM systems
Deep domain knowledge with prominent cloud identity provider(s): Okta, Duo, Google Workspace, Entra ID, Ping, etc.
Demonstrated success implementing and managing tooling that solves problems related to identity lifecycle and provisioning, SSO, MFA, ABAC, RBAC, directory services, zero‑trust networking, PAM, PIM, and secrets management

Familiarity with a modern programming language (Golang, Python, Ruby, Java, C# etc.)
Experience using and managing AWS, GCP, Azure, or other cloud environments
