Senior Site Reliability Engineer
About this role
Scaling and securing corporate identity infrastructure prevents operational bottlenecks as the enterprise grows. Managing identity and access management systems requires a technical authority to oversee continuous operation and future development.
Joining the Corporate Engineering team, the chosen professional will architect and maintain identity providers like Okta, Auth0, and Keycloak while engineering automated workflows.

What you will do
- Ensure the continuous operation and architectural enhancement of corporate identity providers including Okta, Auth0, and Keycloak.
- Build automated zero-day joiner, mover, and leaver workflows directly integrated with human resources information systems.
- Write Python or Go scripts to automate repetitive tasks and enforce identity data minimization.
- Leverage tools like Terraform, Ansible, or SaltStack to manage configurations as code across identity platforms.
- Participate in an on-call rotation and drive incident response, root cause analysis, and post-mortem processes for authentication failures.
- Collaborate with security and IT teams to ensure identity architecture complies with GDPR and zero trust principles.
What you need
