Senior Identity Infrastructure Engineer
We are seeking a Senior Identity Infrastructure Engineer to design, implement, and operate secure, resilient identity services across a complex technology environment. You will play a key role in shaping identity and access management capabilities, supporting modern authentication standards, and ensuring that users, applications, and services have the appropriate access at the right time. This is an opportunity to influence architecture, improve security controls, and deliver reliable platforms used across the organisation.
Your responsibilities will include engineering and administering identity infrastructure such as directory services, federation platforms, privileged access management, certificate services, and cloud identity technologies. You will develop and maintain solutions based on protocols including SAML, OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, LDAP, and Kerberos. The role will involve integrating identity services with on-premises and cloud applications, automating provisioning and deprovisioning workflows, strengthening authentication and authorisation controls, and supporting lifecycle management processes. You will also investigate complex incidents, perform root-cause analysis, contribute to disaster recovery planning, and maintain clear technical documentation and operational procedures.
Applicants should have substantial experience in identity engineering, infrastructure administration, or a closely related discipline, with a strong understanding of enterprise security principles. Experience with platforms such as Microsoft Entra ID, Active Directory, Okta, Ping Identity, CyberArk, or comparable technologies is highly desirable. You should be comfortable with scripting and automation using tools such as PowerShell, Python, or Terraform, and have experience working with APIs, monitoring, logging, and configuration management. Strong knowledge of access governance, least-privilege design, multifactor authentication, and security best practice is essential. Excellent communication and problem-solving skills are required, together with the ability to collaborate effectively with security, infrastructure, application, and compliance teams while managing priorities in a changing environment.
