Build Resilience: Establish high-availability, disaster recovery, and proactive monitoring strategies for our identity platforms.
Automate & Innovate: Develop advanced PowerShell scripts and automation workflows to streamline operations and enforce policy.
Govern & Comply: Design robust RBAC, PIM, and identity governance models, ensuring alignment with strict regulatory requirements (GDPR, NIS2, ISO 27001).
Collaborate & Mentor: Partner with security, infrastructure, and business teams, providing technical leadership and mentoring to engineers across the globe.
Your Profile:
Proven expertise in designing and managing enterprise-scale Active Directory and Microsoft Entra ID environments.

Entra Connect and hybrid identity configurations.
Modern authentication (SAML, OIDC, OAuth, SSO).
Security implementations (Conditional Access, MFA, Defender for Identity).
Privileged Identity Management (PIM) and/or PAM tools.
Advanced proficiency in PowerShell for automation and administration.
A solid understanding of core infrastructure protocols (LDAP, Kerberos, DNS, Group Policy) and Microsoft 365 security tools.
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to translate complex technical concepts for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
