Die Position
The Opportunity:
As a Senior Cybersecurity Engineer in the IAM space, you will serve as the technical owner of our Policy Based Access Control (PBAC) infrastructure. In this role, you will lead the design, implementation, and tactical lifecycle management of core authorization components to ensure they are scalable, resilient, and deeply integrated across a hybrid global landscape.
Key Responsibilities:
• Infrastructure Ownership & Strategy: Architect and maintain core PBAC components (PDP/PEP) for high availability. Lead the transition from initial use cases to enterprise-wide adoption, establishing global standards for policy-based authorization.
• Policy as Code (PaC) & DevOps: Drive the shift to PaC by designing automated CI/CD pipelines for versioning, testing, and deploying authorization logic like software.
• Integration & Consulting: Act as a primary consultant for global application and data owners to securely integrate systems via RESTful APIs, SQL/JDBC, and LDAP.
• Problem Solving & Analytics: Lead the analysis of complex, highly ambiguous technical problems across organizational boundaries, driving comprehensive root-cause analysis and proactive risk mitigation.
• Stakeholder & Vendor Management: Partner with product managers, global developers, and senior management to design secure, user-friendly PBAC flows. Manage production environments using ITIL principles and coordinate with external vendors and Managed Service Providers (MSPs).
• Leadership & Continuous Improvement: Mentor team members, build expertise across the organization, and champion business process improvements within Communities of Practice (CoPs).
Who You Are:
• Education: Bachelor's degree in a relevant technical field or equivalent work experience
• Experience: 8–15 years in IT/Security, with 5+ years strictly focused on Identity & Access Management (IAM) and specific expertise in PBAC/ABAC within large enterprise environments.
• Technical Mastery: Advanced, hands-on knowledge of XACML, decentralized policy management, and modern web frameworks under Zero Trust principles (RBAC and ABAC).
• IAM & DevOps Foundations: Highly proficient in SAML, OAuth, OIDC, SSO, and IGA. Experience writing custom integrations in Java or Python and deploying via Git-based CI/CD pipelines.
• Architectural Mindset: Strong advocate for systems thinking and enterprise-wide consulting advice. You prioritize configurable, "off-the-shelf" capabilities over heavy customization for long-term maintainability.
• Communication: Fluent in English with exceptional interpersonal skills to navigate complex conflicts, build global consensus, and translate architectural concepts for non-technical stakeholders.
Preferred Qualifications:
• Regulated Environments: Deep familiarity with data privacy regulations such as GDPR.
• Operational Frameworks: Experience working within Agile methodologies and applying ITIL frameworks in cross-functional global team structures.
