Position Overview
We are seeking an experienced Information Security Engineer III with a focus on Privileged Access Management (PAM) to support and enhance enterprise credential management systems.
This role provides technical engineering and operational support for the Automated Password Reset (APS) application, built on the Bravura Password Manager platform. The position is centered on platform stability, configuration, integration support, and operational health not software development. Development responsibilities remain with dedicated engineering teams.
This role is critical to maintaining system reliability, supporting audit and regulatory commitments, and reducing operational risk particularly in environments with high system interdependencies and limited subject matter redundancy.
Key Responsibilities
- Provide technical engineering and operational support for the APS platform and Bravura Password Manager
- Support configuration, maintenance, and troubleshooting of APS integrations with enterprise systems (e.g., Active Directory, Oracle databases, mainframes, and non-AD platforms)
- Analyze and manage authentication workflows, credential policies, and access control mechanisms
- Assist in incident response, troubleshooting, and root cause analysis for production issues
- Support platform upgrades, vendor patches, and post-upgrade stabilization activities
- Perform environment validation and system health checks across DEV, QA, and PROD
- Contribute to ongoing database migration efforts and capacity planning initiatives
- Evaluate and maintain integrations across 10+ connected enterprise systems
- Support access, entitlement, and password management workflows across integrated environments
- Collaborate with software engineers, IAM architects, and service owners to ensure seamless transition between development and operations
- Participate in Agile ceremonies (stand-ups, backlog refinement, retrospectives) as a platform SME
- Develop and maintain documentation, runbooks, and operational readiness materials
- Support production changes and assist with critical issues, including occasional after-hours escalations
Required Qualifications
- 3 5 years of experience in password or credential management, identity and access management (IAM), or information security engineering
- Hands-on experience supporting PAM tools or credential management platforms (e.g., Bravura, CyberArk, or similar)
- Strong working knowledge of SQL and Python
- Experience with LDAP and Active Directory environments
- Proven ability to troubleshoot complex systems and operate independently with strong initiative
- Solid understanding of authentication systems, access control models, and security best practices
Preferred Qualifications
- 1 2 years of software development experience (ability to read and interpret code)
- Experience with CyberArk Password Vault or similar PAM solutions
- Familiarity with identity governance tools (e.g., SailPoint)
- CISSP or other relevant security certifications
- Experience in regulated industries such as financial services or healthcare (HIPAA familiarity is a plus)
