  • Deep understanding of OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, SAML, SCIM, and related token, session, and federation concepts.
  • Experience designing customer identity journeys including registration, login, MFA, passwordless options, account recovery, consent, and profile management.

  • Required certification in at least one relevant identity or cybersecurity discipline, such as CISSP, CCSP, IDPro, Okta Certified Administrator/Developer, Microsoft SC-300, or AWS Security Specialty.
  • Familiarity with CI/CD, infrastructure as code, automated testing, observability, and secure development practices.
  • Willingness and ability to use AI-assisted engineering tools such as Claude, GitHub Copilot, or Cursor in a secure and effective manner.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills for presenting architecture decisions and tradeoffs to technical and executive stakeholders.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to diagnose complex identity, integration, and access issues across distributed systems.
  • Experience addressing emerging identity control challenges related to agentic AI, non-human identities, machine identities, and modern IAM governance patterns.
