Support the IAM architectural roadmap, working with security and enterprise architecture to maintain alignment to the broader enterprise security and technology strategies.
Design end-to-end IAM solutions covering identity governance and administration (IGA), privileged access management (PAM) and access management.
Establish and maintain architecture patterns, standards, and reference designs for IAM across cloud, hybrid, and on-premises environments.
Architect and oversee the implementation of authentication protocols including OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect (OIDC), SAML 2.0, and FIDO2/WebAuthn.
Drive the adoption of multi-factor authentication (MFA), single sign-on (SSO), and password-less authentication capabilities, enhancing and extending the conditional access implementation.
Collaborate with peer functions such as Workplace Technology, Enterprise Architecture, Security Architecture as and when required.
Engage with relevant teams to ensure IAM solutions comply with relevant regulatory and control frameworks (including GDPR, SOX, PCI-DSS, NIST, and ISO 27001).
Support the analysis & delivery of role-based access control (RBAC), attribute-based access control (ABAC), and entitlement management frameworks.
Support audit and assurance activities, producing architectural documentation and evidence as required.
Act as the subject matter expert (SME) for IAM solutions, advising stakeholders and product teams on identity-related risks, capabilities, and mitigations.
Bring a “customer first” mindset to ensure that user experience remains a priority in the delivery of IAM services.
Evaluate and support recommendations for IAM vendor solutions and tooling, contributing to procurement and commercial decisions.
Act as a coach or mentor to junior colleagues to further IAM within Flutter
