IAM Engineer job in Information Technology in Fort Mill

THE TEAM YOU WILL BE JOINING

Join the Security Engineering organization of a large, established infrastructure services company experiencing continued growth and technology investment.
Report directly to a senior Security Engineering leader who is continuing to build and mature the organization's security capabilities.
Work alongside a team of four U.S.-based engineers, with additional technology resources located internationally.
Join a team that has already reduced its support ticket volume by approximately 75% through automation and is looking to bring the same mindset to Identity and Access Management.
Step into a highly visible area of the security organization as the company modernizes its IAM environment, improves onboarding and offboarding, and continues its transition to Okta.

6-month contract-to-hire opportunity with anticipated conversion around the February timeframe.
The organization is also evaluating whether the position could move directly to a permanent hire.
Opportunity to join a growing Security Engineering function where automation and process improvement are actively supported.
Direct access to the leader of the Security Engineering team and the ability to influence how IAM capabilities are built moving forward.
An environment that values practical technical ability over pedigree. A college degree or specific certifications are not required.
Opportunity to work across Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, PAM technologies, APIs, scripting, and broader identity-security initiatives.

The organization is in the middle of modernizing its Identity and Access Management environment, with a particular focus on improving and automating Joiner-Mover-Leaver processes.
Several IAM processes are still highly manual today, creating an opportunity for this person to identify inefficiencies and turn them into scalable, automated workflows.
Help support and mature the company's transition to Okta, while continuing to develop integrations and SSO capabilities within Microsoft Entra ID.
Build automation through scripting, APIs, and workflow development to reduce manual ticket volume and improve the employee onboarding and offboarding experience.
Partner with the security team to assess the current IAM environment, identify gaps, and help develop a longer-term IAM roadmap.
Support and improve IAM and Privileged Access Management capabilities across the organization.
Develop API-based integrations between identity platforms and other enterprise systems.
Troubleshoot identity and access issues while documenting processes, configurations, and standard operating procedures.
This is a hands-on engineering role. The team is looking for someone who can come in, understand the environment quickly, and start solving problems rather than simply administering tickets.

Approximately 3+ years of IAM, identity engineering, security engineering, or closely related experience.
Hands-on experience working with Okta, particularly lifecycle management and Joiner-Mover-Leaver workflows.
Experience configuring and supporting SSO integrations within Microsoft Entra ID / Azure AD.
Demonstrated ability to automate manual processes using PowerShell, Python, or similar scripting technologies.
Experience using APIs to integrate systems and automate identity workflows.
Exposure to an IGA platform is strongly preferred, even if that experience is not extensive.
Experience with a PAM platform such as Delinea, CyberArk, or BeyondTrust. Delinea specifically is not required.
Strong troubleshooting skills and the ability to identify the root cause of identity and access issues.
Experience working within Jira or a similar ticketing and project-tracking environment.
Someone who naturally looks at repetitive manual processes and thinks, "How can we automate this?"
Comfortable working in a highly collaborative, onsite engineering environment in Fort Mill.
Degree and certifications are not required. The priority is finding someone with the technical experience and practical ability to do the work.
