We are building a modern, highly automated identity security program—and we need a sharp, relentless operator to build it. Identity is the new perimeter, and managing how our integral workforce accesses enterprise systems is one of our highest priorities. We are looking for a Principal Security Engineer - Identity & Access to help drive our identity evolution alongside our existing senior engineering team.

Your mandate is to take that complex web of legacy entitlements and build a highly scalable, automated identity governance machine. We do not need someone to draw Visio diagrams and hand them off to junior admins. We need a pragmatic, high-agency builder who helps design the strategy but has the zero-ego grit to execute it with their own hands.

Design and scale our authentication and authorization foundations across cloud, SaaS, and on-premise environments.

M&A; & Enterprise Transformation: As a rapidly expanding global fintech, we acquire and scale. Zero-Ego Execution: As a senior technical anchor on the team, you lead by example.

Codify Governance & Shift Left: You will design self-service identity workflows, automated controls, and identity KPIs that force business leaders (the first line of defense)



to explicitly own and accept their access risks.

Be the IAM Diplomat: When you change how developers and commercial teams authenticate, there is always friction. You must have the extreme patience, persistence, and EQ to negotiate with engineering directors, bringing them along and enforcing security without alienating them. SailPoint, Saviynt, Okta).

Pragmatic Operator Mindset: You understand that security cannot kill velocity. You know how to find the critical balance between enforcing strict, least-privilege security and maintaining high usability for the business.

Disciplined

Multi-Threading: You are ruthlessly organized, capable of driving an enterprise identity strategy while simultaneously troubleshooting an immediate, ground-level access escalation. You will partner deeply with Enterprise IT Service Desk, Application owners, Cloud Platform, and Infrastructure teams to govern access across Enterprise and Cloud. You will align with Detection & Response teams to improve identity threat visibility and automated containment, and you will collaborate heavily with HR and Enterprise Applications to ensure identity data flows securely from the ultimate source of truth.

Flexibility: we have flexible schedules and we are driven by performance Social budget: you'll get a monthly budget to chill out with your team (in person or remotely) and deepen your connections!
