Job Summary

The Workforce Identity Architect is a senior architecture role responsible for defining and governing workforce (human) identity architecture at global scale. This role designs and standardizes how employee and partner identities are created, governed, authenticated, authorized, reviewed, and retired across hybrid and cloud environments.

The Workforce Identity Architect operationalizes global IAM standards for human identity, ensuring secure, scalable, and auditable access while supporting regions transitioning through different identity maturity stages. This role focuses on architecture, standards, and enablement, not daytoday operations or tool administration.

Key Responsibilities:

Workforce Identity Architecture

• Define and maintain global workforce identity architecture using Microsoft Entra ID in hybrid and cloudmastered environments.
• Establish standard patterns for authentication, federation, Conditional Access, and MFA.
• Design tenantlevel identity integration patterns that scale across applications and regions.

Identity Lifecycle Management

• Architect and standardize Joiner / Mover / Leaver (JML) identity lifecycle patterns driven by authoritative HR sources.
• Ensure consistent provisioning, modification, and deprovisioning of workforce identities.
• Reduce orphaned, dormant, and overprovisioned access through strong lifecycle design.

Identity Governance & Privileged Access

• Define workforce identity governance standards, including access requests, access reviews, and separation of duties (SoD).
• Architect privileged access models for workforce identities, including PIM and JustinTime access.
• Ensure access models are auditable and aligned to regulatory and risk expectations.

AIAssisted Analytics & Access Optimization

• Leverage analytics and AIassisted capabilities to improve role and entitlement design.
• Reduce access certification noise by improving role quality, review scoping, and access rationalization.
• Translate analytic insights into architectural improvements rather than oneoff reporting.

External & Partner Identity

• Define B2B and partner identity patterns using Entra ID that enable collaboration while maintaining centralized governance.
• Ensure thirdparty access aligns with global standards and workforce identity controls.

Metrics & Continuous Improvement

• Partner with IAM Governance teams to define and consume workforce identity metrics, including access quality, review effectiveness, and lifecycle hygiene.
• Use metrics to continuously improve identity architecture and reduce access risk.

What This Role Is - and Is Not

This role is:

• A senior architecture and standards role
• Focused on workforce identity at enterprise and global scale
• A bridge between architecture, security, risk, and delivery team

• Consistent, scalable workforce identity standards adopted across regions
• Reduced access risk and certification fatigue
• Clear lifecycle ownership and auditready access governance
• Smooth regional progression toward cloudmastered identity

Why This Role Matters

Workforce identity is foundational to security, compliance, and user experience. This role ensures workforce identity evolves intentionally, consistently, and defensibly, enabling global scale while reducing access risk and operational friction.

• Deep expertise in Microsoft Entra ID architecture in hybrid environments.
• Strong experience designing JML lifecycle, identity governance, and privileged access controls.
• Ability to design auditable, regulatordefensible access models.
• Proven ability to influence across technical and nontechnical stakeholders.
