The Opportunity
StaffRight Associates is seeking a visionary Privileged Access Management (PAM) Engineer to fortify the security architecture of a major enterprise within the highly regulated financial sector. In this role, you will act as a primary defender of sensitive assets, neutralizing internal and external threats by engineering robust identity controls. This is a high-impact engagement designed for a technical expert who thrives on solving complex security challenges in a hybrid-cloud environment, ensuring that high-level protection and operational efficiency coexist seamlessly.
What You’ll Do
Architect and sustain large-scale CyberArk deployments to safeguard critical identities across a diverse corporate landscape.
Orchestrate the full lifecycle of credentials, including automated rotation, secure vaulting, and rigorous session auditing.
Engineer secure secret management workflows utilizing Azure Key Vault to protect application keys, certificates, and sensitive data.
Synthesize security protocols within CI/CD pipelines, embedding PAM capabilities directly into DevOps lifecycles to enable security at speed.
Drive automation initiatives by developing custom PowerShell scripts and leveraging REST APIs to streamline onboarding and access management.
Champion the principle of least privilege by designing resilient integrations that span both on-premises infrastructure and Azure cloud environments.
Mitigate organizational risk by ensuring all access controls strictly adhere to stringent financial industry regulations and internal audit standards.
Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to implement sophisticated security controls that support, rather than hinder, development velocity.
What You Bring
Expertise: Minimum of 5 years of hands-on PAM engineering experience within a massive, regulated corporate environment (technical execution focus rather than high-level advisory).
Platform Mastery: Advanced proficiency in CyberArk platforms, encompassing both the deployment of new features and ongoing operational optimization.
Cloud Proficiency: Deep familiarity with Azure services, Entra ID, and hybrid infrastructure management (Windows/Linux/Active Directory).
Programming Skills: Strong command of PowerShell and REST API integration for the purpose of infrastructure automation.
Industry Knowledge: Proven background navigating the compliance and security nuances of the financial services sector.
DevSecOps Mindset: Practical experience merging security tools into modern DevOps platforms and cloud-native architectures.
Certifications: A CyberArk CDE (Cloud DevOps Extensions) certification is highly preferred and serves as a gateway for fully remote flexibility.
Self-Direction: The ability to provide immediate technical value with minimal transition time or oversight.
