The Opportunity

EY Global Delivery Services (GDS) is seeking a Senior AI Engineer to support the design and delivery of AI-led solutions across Identity and Access Management and Cybersecurity domains. This role will help shape how AI capabilities are applied to modern IAM challenges such as identity governance, access management, privileged access, directory services and non-human identity security.

As a senior profile, the candidate will work closely with IAM, Cyber, cloud and business stakeholders to understand client problems, identify practical AI opportunities and convert them into working solutions, prototypes and scalable delivery assets.

• Analyze identity, access, privilege, vault, directory, activity and security logs to identify risk patterns, anomalies, access recommendations, role mining opportunities and policy gaps.
• Support AI-driven IAM governance including risk-based authentication, risk-based provisioning, access reviews, compliance checks, SOD, identity lifecycle orchestration and audit-ready reporting.
• Apply ML, classification, optimization, time series analysis, pattern recognition, NLP, UEBA, anomaly detection and predictive risk scoring for identity and access intelligence.
• Work on Non-Human Identity use cases including service accounts, managed identities, service principals, enterprise applications, API-based identities, workload identities, agent identities, token misuse and agent overreach controls.
• Contribute to PAM analytics and automation across CyberArk, Privilege Cloud, EPM, EPV, CPM, PSM, JIT/JEA, password rotation, secret lifecycle management, session monitoring and vault log analytics.
• Create dashboards and insights using Power BI, Tableau and identity analytics views to explain access risk, compliance posture, user activity trends and remediation priorities.
• Collaborate with business, cyber and IAM stakeholders to convert problem statements into working prototypes, scalable solutions and executive-ready recommendations.
