• Design authentication, authorization, delegation, lifecycle management, observability, accountability, and auditability models for AI agents
• Develop security patterns for agent registration, ownership, agent-to-agent communication, delegated access, capability-based authorization, and decommissioning
• Define identity-centric security controls that support Zero Trust principles and reduce reliance on standing privileges and long-lived credentials
• Architect integrations across enterprise Identity Governance and Administration, Privileged Access Management, cloud, directory, workload identity, and cybersecurity platforms
• Partner with product managers and engineering teams to translate strategic objectives into practical, scalable, and secure identity solutions
• Evaluate emerging platforms, frameworks, and vendor capabilities related to agentic identity, AI security, and non-human identity governance
• Ensure architecture and engineering solutions meet internal control, audit, risk, regulatory, privacy, and compliance requirements
• Demonstrate proficiency in using AI-assisted development and analysis tools, such as GitHub Copilot and approved code-centric agents
• Leverage AI to accelerate system design, coding, testing, analysis, and troubleshooting
• Apply strong technical judgment when validating and integrating AI-assisted outputs into solutions
• Understand and account for model limitations, security risks, and operational considerations
• Apply AI responsibly in development and production environments
• Ensure AI usage aligns with security, compliance, privacy, and ethical standards

Required Qualifications:
