In this role, you will
- Own and mature identity and access management infrastructure and tooling like SSO, MFA, directory services across corporate, development and production cloud environments.
- Continuously improve Sentry’s identity and access control practices with automation and self-service support for onboarding/offboarding, joiners/movers/leavers, access reviews, privileged access management, SaaS lifecycle management, and security incident response workflows.
- Champion and implement secure-by-design access principles like attribute and context aware grants, comprehensive logging, just-in-time (JIT) provisioning, least privilege, policy-as-code automation principles, and zero-trust.
- Secure our human and non-human identities: user accounts, service accounts, API keys, OAuth clients, agentic, and workload identities.
You’ll thrive in this role if you
- Enjoy operating cross-functionally, building relationships, influencing with technical expertise, and shaping how builders get access to get things done across a fast-moving engineering organization.
- Get excited when something new lands on your desk, be it a new feature spec, an authentication bypass, a novel agentic architecture, an unfamiliar cloud primitive, or a bug class you haven't seen before.
- Love working in a developer-forward culture where your colleagues are builders who care deeply about code quality and customer satisfaction.
- Reach for automation first, you'd rather build a scalable, systematic solution to a security problem than solve it manually a hundred times.
- Thrive with real ownership, you prefer to build and drive work end-to-end, you're energized by the autonomy that comes with being on a small, high-trust team.
Qualifications
- 3+ years of industry experience designing, building, securing workforce identity and access control systems for corporate, development, and large-scale distributed cloud systems
- Degree in Computer Science or a related field, equivalent training, or professional experience
- Proficiency in Python and other scripting languages, Terraform and infrastructure-as-code tools, and building integrations via APIs, SCIM and webhooks
- Experience with a breadth of identity platforms IDP, IGA, PAM, CloudIAM, etc.
- Familiarity with cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure), containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes), and securing CI/CD and source controls tools (Github, Gitlab)
- A collaborative approach to problem solving paired with strong written and verbal communication
