IAM Architect

Design, develop, and manage cloud-based IAM solutions across AWS, Azure environments. Implement secure identity and access controls for Artifactory SaaS, including user, group, token, and permission management. Integrate IAM with Kubernetes pods, service accounts, and workload identities to ensure secure pod-to-pod and pod-to-service communication. Automate IAM configuration and access policies using Infrastructure as Code tools such as Terraform and CloudFormation. Configure and manage authentication methods including SSO, MFA, OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, and SAML. Manage secrets, tokens, and credentials used by applications and pods via secure vaults or cloud-native secret managers. Enforce least-privilege access and zero-trust principles across cloud resources, Artifactory repositories, and Kubernetes clusters. Develop CI/CD pipelines that integrate IAM policies for applications, Artifactory SaaS, and containerized workloads. Monitor, audit, and troubleshoot IAM access issues related to users, services, pods, and external integrations. Collaborate with DevOps, platform, and security teams to align IAM controls with organizational security standards. Support compliance and audit requirements by maintaining IAM documentation, logs, and access reviews. Continuously improve IAM scalability, resilience, and security posture across cloud and container platforms.
