Scope of Job: 

The Identity and Access Management (IAM) Engineer serves as the strategic anchor, technical implementer, and cultural champion for Identity and Access Management within the Cybersecurity team. As the cornerstone of the modern security program, this role ensures that the right individuals have the right access to the right resources at the right times and for the right reasons. 

This role is integral to the day-to-day management of the IAM infrastructure and identity lifecycle from onboarding to offboarding. The IAM Engineer defines the identity strategy, hands-on architect, implements  enterprise-grade toolsets, and builds the seamless operational processes required to support them. 

In addition to deep technical deployment, this role acts as the organization's chief IAM representative - collaborating with cross-functional teams, educating the business on why identity security matters, and breaking down complex security protocols into friction-free user experiences. By bridging the gap between engineering excellence and strategic vision, you will directly mitigate security risks, enable business productivity, support regulatory compliance, and fortify our overall security posture against unauthorized access and data breaches.
