  • Architect and manage Identity as Code, including RBAC, Conditional Access, and PIM configurations using Terraform
  • Engineer modern access controls such as Just-in-Time (JIT) access and Workload Identity Federation for Azure and GCP
  • Partner with security and compliance teams to ensure all automated access activities are logged, monitored, and audited
  • Document architecture decisions, automation logic, and operational runbooks for the identity platform

  • Hands-on production experience with Microsoft Entra ID (App Registrations, Conditional Access, and PIM)
  • Expertise in coding and automation (Python, Go, or PowerShell) using the Microsoft Graph API
  • Experience deploying and operating identity configurations using Terraform and version control systems

What`s in it for you?

  • Strong community: Work alongside top professionals in a friendly, open-door environment
  • Growth focus: Take on large-scale projects with a global impact and expand your expertise
  • Tailored learning: Boost your skills with internal events (meetups, conferences, workshops), Udemy access, language courses, and company-paid certifications
