About the role

We are seeking a Senior PAM Specialist with deep hands-on expertise in IDIRA (formerly CyberArk) to lead the design and architecture of our PAM program and to build advanced integrations, including custom CPM plugins, PSM connectors for MFA-enabled applications, and forward-leaning capabilities such as Agentic AI vaulting and JIT (Just-in-time) implementation.

What you'll do here:

• Own solution architecture for IDIRA Privileged Cloud including tenant design, environment segregation (prod/non-prod), network connectivity patterns, identity federation/SSO, and operational hardening
• Define onboarding standards for privileged accounts, safes, platforms, rotation policies, session controls, approvals, and audit evidence
• Establish reusable reference architectures for common target types (Windows, Linux/Unix, databases, network devices, cloud consoles, SaaS admin portals)
• Ensure key risk metrics/indicators are developed and implemented to systematically measure and report information-related risks
• Develop and maintain custom CPM plugins for systems and applications not supported out-of-the-box
• Engineer rotation, verification, and reconciliation logic with robust error handling, logging, and supportability
• Create standardized development practices (code reviews, versioning, testing harnesses, release process) for CPM plugin lifecycle
• Design and build custom PSM connectors for: Web applications (including complex flows),Thick clients / legacy applications and Administrative tools requiring step-up authentication
• Engineer solutions for MFA-enabled apps, balancing automation and security (e.g., brokered sessions, step-up patterns, conditional access alignment, approved MFA handling approaches)
• Provide technical guidance to app teams on requirements to enable rotation (API enablement, service accounts, least privilege, break-glass procedures)
• Lead deployment and adoption of SIA capabilities to enable just-in-time access and zero-standing privilege for infrastructure and cloud workloads
• Define end-to-end SIA workflows: request/approval, entitlement mapping, session initiation, auditing, and revocation
• Integrate SIA patterns into operational processes (incident response, privileged break-glass, platform engineering standards)
• Implement automation using APIs and event-driven patterns to reduce manual effort while maintaining strict auditability and change control
• Design privileged access patterns across AWS, Azure, and GCP, including privileged roles, automation identities, and administrative access models.
• Secure cloud administrative sessions and credentials for: Cloud consoles and CLI access, Kubernetes (EKS/AKS/GKE) administrative workflows, Managed services (databases, secrets services, CI/CD runners, serverless)
• Design and implement vaulting strategies for Agentic AI identities — autonomous AI agents, LLM orchestrators, robotic process automation (RPA) bots, and AI-driven pipelines that require privileged credentials
• Enforce least-privilege principles for AI agents accessing sensitive systems, databases, and cloud services
• Participate in the development of organizational standards for AI agent identity governance and credential hygiene
• Identify and remediate security gaps, misconfigurations, and over-privileged accounts across the PAM estate
• Serve as senior escalation for complex Privileged Cloud onboarding and runtime issues (connectivity, session issues, rotation failures, connector behavior)
• Participate in incident response activities involving privileged account compromise or misuse

What you bring to the table:

• 7+ years in IAM/Security Engineering with 5+ years in PAM engineering and demonstrable experience with IDIRA Privileged Cloud (CyberArk Privilege Cloud)
