Full Job Description

Job Description

An enterprise technology team is hiring a Lead IAM Security & Reliability Engineer in Irving, TX to take ownership of the operational security and stability of a critical Identity and Access Management application portfolio.

This engineer will operate at the intersection of cybersecurity, production engineering, infrastructure, and application support. Rather than focusing on one narrow area of security, the position covers the full operational lifecycle of enterprise IAM platforms-from identifying technical risk and remediating vulnerabilities to restoring services during outages and improving long-term platform resiliency.

You will lead efforts around vulnerability assessment and remediation, production readiness, incident coordination, reliability engineering, operational monitoring, infrastructure support, and platform modernization. When major incidents occur, this person will serve as a senior escalation point, help direct technical response activities, determine root causes, and ensure preventative improvements are implemented afterward.

Another key responsibility will be strengthening visibility into application performance and system health. This includes improving logging, telemetry, distributed tracing, dashboards, alert thresholds, and other observability capabilities.

The engineer will also coordinate infrastructure and environment activities involving cloud services, databases, networking, middleware, certificates, service accounts, deployment environments, and high-availability configurations.

Required Skills & Experience

Minimum of 7 years of professional experience in security engineering, SRE, DevOps, platform engineering, application engineering, or a related field
Proven experience maintaining mission-critical applications
Deep understanding of vulnerability identification, prioritization, remediation, and validation
Strong application security and security risk assessment knowledge
Experience directing or heavily participating in major production incidents
Ability to troubleshoot complex application and infrastructure issues
Working knowledge of operational telemetry, event monitoring, logging, and alerting
Experience with enterprise release and change controls
Background working with cloud-based and highly available systems
Strong communication skills with the ability to coordinate teams during high-impact technical events

Desired Skills & Experience

Identity and Access Management technology experience
Identity Governance platform knowledge
Azure-based application or infrastructure experience
Kubernetes and containerized application experience
OpenShift exposure
Experience building or improving monitoring and APM capabilities
Business continuity and disaster recovery experience
Knowledge of RTO and RPO concepts
ITIL-based incident and change management experience
CI/CD pipeline and deployment automation experience
DevSecOps background
Security or cloud certifications are beneficial

What You Will Be Doing Daily Responsibilities

Own security and operational health initiatives across enterprise IAM applications
Identify application, container, infrastructure, and open-source vulnerabilities
Work with development teams to prioritize and complete security remediation
Evaluate security risks and recommend technical controls
Take command of technical triage during significant service interruptions
Coordinate restoration efforts across application, infrastructure, and cybersecurity groups
Analyze recurring production problems and eliminate underlying causes
Establish meaningful reliability, incident, and vulnerability metrics
Improve MTTD and MTTR across supported services
Build stronger monitoring, logging, tracing, and alerting capabilities
Assist with capacity planning, failover design, traffic management, and load balancing
Coordinate platform upgrades, environment maintenance, and infrastructure changes
Validate implementation and rollback plans before major releases
Help plan and execute disaster recovery exercises
Promote automation and standardization throughout operational processes
