You will serve as our subject matter expert for Identity and Access Management (IAM) and application security, ensuring that all third-party business and IT applications are implemented with a security-first mindset. Because our cyber program is evolving, this is a highly dynamic, cross-functional role. You will have your hands in multiple domains, including security governance, vulnerability management, operational technology (OT) security, and overarching cyber architecture.

  • Risk Mitigation: Assess risks associated with new and existing applications, providing actionable, secure solutions and compensating controls to business stakeholders.
  • Identity & Access Management (IAM)
  • Lifecycle Management: Design, deploy, and manage our IAM lifecycle processes, ensuring the principles of least privilege and zero trust are applied across the organization.
  • Microsoft Ecosystem Management: Leverage the Microsoft environment (e.g., Entra ID / Azure AD) to configure and enforce Conditional Access policies, MFA, SSO, and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC).
  • Access Auditing: Regularly audit identities, roles, and permissions to ensure compliance with internal access policies.
  • Cyber Program Development & Engineering
  • Vulnerability Management: Assist in building, configuring, and maintaining vulnerability scanning workflows and coordinating remediation efforts across endpoints, servers, and applications.
  • Operational Technology (OT) Security: Support the secure design and architecture of our OT environments, bridging the gap between standard IT infrastructure and industrial/operational systems.
  • Governance & Compliance: Contribute to the development of foundational cyber security policies, standards, and compliance frameworks.
  • General Cyber Support: Act as a flexible security engineering resource, guiding the secure design of various IT projects and initiatives as the overarching security program scales.

Required Qualifications
  • Experience: Proven experience as a Cyber Security Engineer, Application Security Specialist, or IAM Engineer.
  • Microsoft Environment Expertise: Deep technical understanding of the Microsoft security ecosystem, including Azure, Entra ID (Azure AD), and enterprise Windows environments.
  • Threat Modeling Skills: Hands-on experience performing threat modeling and risk assessments for third-party software integrations and business apps.
  • IAM Proficiency: Strong foundational knowledge of identity protocols (SAML, OAuth, OIDC) and enterprise identity management.
