Identity AI Security Architect

Title: IndentityAI Security Architect

Location: Remote

Duration: Full Time

Identity: NHI & AI security

• Reference architecture for AI agent identity: registration attestation credential issuance scoping revocation
• Delegation and on-behalf-of patterns token exchange audience restriction downscoping across multi-agent call chains
• Tool/function invocation authorization: per-tool entitlement policy enforcement at the agent or LLM gateway approval gates for high-consequence actions
• MCP and tool-protocol security server trust tool-definition integrity confused-deputy prevention
• Containment patterns that assume the reasoning layer is compromised and enforce least privilege at the identity layer
• Workload identity to replace long-lived secrets: SPIFFE/SPIRE cloud workload identity federation mTLS short-lived credentials
• NHI discovery ownership recertification and deprovisioning integrated into existing IGA
• Behavioral telemetry for agent and workload identity misuse; threat models via MITRE ATLAS and OWASP LLM Top 10

Enterprise architecture

• Security reference architecture patterns standards exception governance
• Zero trust across identity device network app data
• IAM/IGA/PAM multi-cloud security DevSecOps and supply chain cryptography and key management
• Executive and audit advisory; mentorship of senior architects

Required

• 12 years security 5 in senior/principal architecture at enterprise scale
• Deep identity architecture ownership across workforce privileged and machine identity
• Command of OAuth 2.0/2.1 OIDC JWT RFC 8693 token exchange mTLS ABAC/ReBAC policy-as-code
• Hands-on securing production AI or agentic systems
• Secrets management and workload identity platforms; cloud security depth in two or more providers
• Codes well enough to prototype and review application code in design sessions

Preferred

• Production MCP servers agent frameworks or LLM gateways
• IETF WIMSE and emerging machine identity standards
• NHI security tooling; machine identity in SailPoint/Saviynt
• Regulated industry experience (FedRAMP DFARS/CMMC PCI DSS NERC CIP)
