This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer – IAM & ZTNA based in India.
This is a high-impact engineering role focused on designing and automating secure Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) environments with a strong identity and access management (IAM) foundation. You will work at the intersection of DevOps, cloud security, and identity engineering to build scalable, policy-driven access systems. The role involves deep automation using Infrastructure as Code, scripting, and CI/CD pipelines to streamline secure user provisioning and lifecycle management. You will collaborate closely with security, IAM, and platform teams to ensure seamless and compliant access across enterprise systems. This is a hands-on position where engineering excellence directly strengthens organizational security posture. You will also contribute to evolving security-as-code practices in a modern cloud-first environment.
Accountabilities:
- Design and implement automated solutions for provisioning, configuration, and lifecycle management of ZTNA environments with an IAM-first approach
- Develop Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Ansible, Python, PowerShell) to automate secure identity workflows, policy enforcement, and access controls
- Integrate ZTNA platforms with identity providers (Azure AD and others) enabling SSO/SAML, SCIM provisioning, and secure authentication flows
- Define and enforce RBAC, least-privilege access models, and policy-as-code guardrails across ZTNA systems
- Build, maintain, and optimize CI/CD pipelines for secure deployment of IAM and policy configurations
- Monitor access patterns, audit user/group activities, and automate compliance reporting and risk detection
- Lead incident response for IAM-related issues, including root cause analysis and remediation
- Collaborate with security, IAM, and DevOps teams to align access models across enterprise systems
- Stay updated on ZTNA and IAM advancements, continuously improving automation frameworks and best practices
- Mentor team members and drive standardization of IAM and ZTNA engineering practices
Requirements:
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or related field
- 5+ years of experience in DevOps or infrastructure automation roles
- Strong hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Ansible, etc.) and CI/CD pipelines
- Solid experience with scripting and automation (Python, PowerShell, REST APIs)
- Strong knowledge of IAM concepts: SSO, SAML, SCIM, RBAC, MFA, federation, and identity platforms (Okta, Azure AD, AWS IAM, etc.)
- Experience or exposure to ZTNA or cloud security platforms (e.g., Zscaler, Prisma Access, Cloudflare Zero Trust, Netskope)
- Understanding of networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, DNS, VPNs, proxies) and cloud security architectures
- Experience automating user provisioning, access policies, and security controls in enterprise environments
- Strong troubleshooting, analytical, and documentation skills
- Excellent collaboration and communication skills in cross-functional environments
Benefits:
- Competitive salary with performance-based bonus programs
- Comprehensive health insurance, life and disability coverage
- Paid time off, holidays, volunteer days, and wellness-focused breaks
- Remote work support including home office stipend
- Learning and development support including tuition and certification reimbursement
- Employee wellness programs, coaching, and mental health support (EAP)
- Inclusive culture with employee resource groups and engagement initiatives
- Opportunities to work on cutting-edge Zero Trust and cloud security technologies.
