Position Overview: We're seeking a Cloud IAM Operations Engineer to manage day-to-day identity and access provisioning across our AWS environment. This is a hands-on, execution-focused role; you'll review incoming access requests against least-privilege principles and implement approved access using Infrastructure as Code. This role operates in alignment with established policy rather than defining it, and you'll partner closely with security architecture on escalations and edge cases.  

Responsibilities: 

• Review AWS access requests against least-privilege and organizational access policy  

• Provision and implement approved access using Infrastructure as Code (CDK preferred;  or similar IaC tools considered)  

• Manage and maintain the organization's Just-In-Time (JIT) access management tool, ensuring all human-use AWS access is provisioned on-demand through JIT workflows rather than persistent permissions, reinforcing least-privilege and audit readiness  

• Maintain accurate, auditable records of access grants, changes, and revocations  

• Identify and escalate access requests that fall outside standard policy or carry elevated risk  

• Support periodic access reviews and recertification processes  

• Contribute to runbooks and documentation to improve consistency and repeatability of the access request lifecycle  

• Partner with security architecture and IAM leadership on process improvements and automation opportunities  

• Conduct periodic reviews of AWS IAM permission sets using IAM Access Analyzer and other tooling to identify unused permissions and overly permissive policies, refining access controls to align with least-privilege principles across the environments.  

What you bring: 

2–4 years of experience in cloud security, IAM, or cloud technologies in AWS    

Working experience with AWS IAM fundamentals (roles, policies, permission sets, least-privilege design)   

This is a people-facing role, and the ideal candidate will bring strong interpersonal and communication skills alongside relevant technical experience.   

Working experience with Infrastructure as Code (CDK preferred;  Pulumi, or CloudFormation also considered)   

Understanding of access review and audit requirements in a regulated environment   

Working experience implementing or administering Just-In-Time (JIT) access management tools in a cloud environment, with a strong understanding of least-privilege access principles and standing-access risk reduction   

Strong attention to detail and sound judgment on what access should and shouldn't be granted   

Clear written communication for documentation and access decision records   

Preferred Experience 

Experience in a healthcare or other regulated industry (HIPAA/HITRUST - aware)     

Familiarity with identity governance tooling and access certification workflows    

Basic scripting ability (Python, TypeScript, or similar) to support IaC workflows    

Geographic Responsibility:  Remote, US

Type of Employment: Full-time, permanent
