Key Responsibilities:

• Design, automate, and operate the IAM, account/subscription, and project lifecycle across AWS, Azure, and GCP, enforcing least-privilege and standardized access patterns at scale.

• Review, implement, and continuously improve cloud identity and access policies (IAM, Okta, Opal) to align with Databricks security standards and audit requirements.

• Build and maintain reliable, observable automation and tooling to apply cloud changes (roles, policies, accounts, networking) safely and repeatedly.

• Treat operational and security issues as software problems: eliminate toil, drive root-cause analysis, and codify fixes into infrastructure and tooling.

• Own and improve security and audit logging data pipelines from cloud providers into our internal systems, ensuring timely, accurate data for detection, investigations, and audits.

• Partner with Security, Compliance, and Audit teams to provide evidence, clarifications, and policy updates that keep our environments aligned with evolving standards.

• Operate and improve specialized, highly regulated environments (e.g., FedRAMP / GovCloud) including release management, patching cadences, and supporting secure access workflows (e.g., SAW).

• Ensure high availability and resiliency for critical security and access infrastructure across these environments.

• Participate in a 24x7 on-call rotation for high-severity incidents impacting cloud accounts, IAM, or security data pipelines.

• Act as a key partner to product engineering, security engineering, and field teams during incidents to restore service and harden systems for the future.

Requirements:

• Candidates must be eligible for a Top Secret / Sensitive Compartmented Information (TS/SCI) security clearance.

• Possession of a current polygraph (Counterintelligence or Full Scope) is highly desired and considered a significant plus.

• Education- BS, MS, or PhD in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.

• Experience: 12+ years of experience, including leading the strategy for cloud IAM, account architecture, or security-critical infrastructure across multiple environments or business units.

• Cloud & Infrastructure Expertise

• Deep hands-on experience with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, Azure, or GCP) in areas such as IAM, networking, accounts/subscriptions/projects, and audit logging.

• Strong background in Infrastructure-as-Code and automation (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation, or similar) and CI/CD for infrastructure changes.

• Security & Compliance Mindset

• Proven experience working in or with security-sensitive or regulated environments (e.g., SOC2, FedRAMP, ISO 27001, financial services, public sector) and translating requirements into concrete technical controls.

• Familiarity with access review processes, policy baselines, and audit evidence for cloud environments.

• Operational Excellence

• Demonstrated success running high-availability, security-critical services, including on-call responsibilities and incident management.

• Strong debugging and problem-solving skills across distributed systems, with the ability to navigate ambiguous issues spanning multiple teams and platforms.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with Okta, Opal, or similar identity/access tooling.

• Background operating secure admin workstations (SAW) or comparable hardened access patterns.

• Experience migrating cloud accounts or subscriptions during M&A or large-scale reorganizations.
