Senior Security Engineer - Non-Human Identity

OPPORTUNITY OVERVIEW

Team Overview:

We are seeking a highly technical, hands-on Senior Non-Human Identity Engineer

to lead the engineering, automation, onboarding, remediation, and operational

management of non-human identities across the enterprise. This role is focused

on the implementation and day-to-day engineering of machine identities, service

accounts, workload identities, API credentials, certificates, secrets, and

privileged application accounts supporting cloud, on-premises, and hybrid

environments.

This is not an architecture-only or governance-only position. The successful

candidate will be expected to personally build solutions, write automation,

troubleshoot authentication issues, onboard applications, integrate platforms,

and drive remediation efforts. The engineer will work closely with application

teams, DevOps, cloud engineering, cybersecurity, and infrastructure teams to

ensure non-human identities are properly secured, monitored, and managed

throughout their lifecycle.

The ideal candidate combines deep IAM expertise with strong scripting,

automation, cloud, and troubleshooting skills, and is comfortable operating in a

fast-paced enterprise environment where hands-on execution is critical.

• * Troubleshoot and resolve authentication, authorization, federation,
• certificate, token, and credential-related issues across enterprise
• applications.
• * Support large-scale remediation initiatives involving dormant service
• accounts, excessive permissions, unmanaged secrets, and identity-related
• security vulnerabilities.
• * Configure and administer identity platforms, including directory services,
• cloud identity providers, PAM solutions, certificate authorities, and secrets
• vaults.
• * Monitor non-human identity activity and investigate suspicious authentication
• events, credential misuse, or policy violations.
• * Conduct access reviews and entitlement analysis to ensure least-privilege
• principles are maintained.
• * Create operational runbooks, implementation guides, engineering standards,
• and technical documentation.
• * Partner with Security Operations and Incident Response teams during
• investigations involving machine identities and application credentials.
• * Participate in after-hours support activities, major incident response, and
• maintenance activities when required.
