The Position

As the Principal Enterprise Identity Engineer, you are the ultimate technical authority and visionary for our global Enterprise Identity Management (EIM) and Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) landscape. Moving beyond individual contribution, you will define the multi-year identity strategy, driving zero-trust initiatives across a highly complex, global ecosystem.

Operating at the highest levels of our technical ladder, you will bridge the gap between executive business strategy and deep technical execution. You will architect resilient, massively scalable identity frameworks, mentor senior engineering talent, and lead cross-functional transformations that protect our most critical global assets while enabling frictionless business operations.

Job Responsibilities

• Lead the multi-year roadmap and end-to-end technical strategy for enterprise identity, aligning IGA architectures with global security policies and zero-trust frameworks
• Establish and enforce enterprise-wide architecture patterns, engineering standards, and reusable frameworks across identity, cloud, and infrastructure domains
• Architect and oversee the deployment of next-generation, SailPoint-based EIM solutions that operate flawlessly at a massive, distributed scale
• Translate complex security paradigms and regulatory requirements into actionable, board-level technical strategies
• Pioneer the adoption of emerging identity technologies, including decentralized identity, advanced ML-driven access analytics, and complex microservice/API integrations
• Act as the technical cornerstone for the identity organization, mentoring senior engineers and leading Tier 4 escalation and root-cause analysis for catastrophic or highly complex systemic issues

Qualifications And Core Expertise

• Minimum of 12 years of hands‑on engineering experience in Cybersecurity and Identity Management, with at least 5 years operating at an enterprise architecture or principal level
• 5+ years of experience steering identity strategies in highly regulated, multinational enterprise environments (Healthcare, Finance, or similar industries highly preferred)
• Deep-tier technical expertise in SailPoint (IdentityNow/IdentityIQ), encompassing enterprise-scale design, custom development, performance tuning, and global deployment
• Expert‑level proficiency in Java and Python for developing highly complex connectors, custom rules, and automated workflows
• Proven track record of architecting integration solutions across complex multi-cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP) and profound familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, DevOps methodologies, and microservices
• Deep, authoritative understanding of RBAC, PBAC, Segregation of Duties (SoD), and advanced access governance frameworks
• Exceptional executive presence with the ability to communicate deeply technical concepts to non-technical C-suite stakeholders and lead distributed global engineering teams autonomously

Education & Certifications

• Degree: Bachelor’s or Advanced degree (Master’s preferred) in Computer Science, Cyber Security, Information Technology, or a related field
• Required Certifications: CISSP, CISM, or CIAM is strongly preferred for this leadership level
• Technical Certifications: Advanced certifications in AWS/Azure/GCP Architecture or SailPoint highly desirable
