Role
Who you are
- Experience: 5+ years of experience developing and maintaining IAM products/tools
- Automation-first mindset: Experience writing production-ready scalable software, Infrastructure as Code, and using AI coding tools to build reliable automation
- IAM Expertise: Strong grasp of IAM best practices, techniques, and common failure modes (e.g., least privilege, privilege escalation paths, separation of duties, breakglass, auditability). Ability to spot dangerous permissions and identify suitable mitigations and controls
- Educational Background: BS+ in computer science or a related field, or equivalent relevant experience
- US Citizenship preferred
What the job involves
- Do you care deeply about secure access at scale?
- Making sure the right people have the right access, exactly when they need it, without slowing teams down?
- Join Moveworks and help shape the future of our identity and access strategy
- At Moveworks, we believe great security is an enabler, not a blocker
- As a Senior Identity & Access Management Engineer, you’ll be a hands-on technical developer, coding, designing, building, and scaling IAM solutions across cloud infrastructure, SaaS applications, and internal systems
- You’ll own the development of IAM initiatives end-to-end, from untangling ambiguous access challenges to architecting secure, automated solutions and driving them into production
- In this role, you’ll develop robust access models across AWS, Azure, Kubernetes, and beyond; reduce privilege sprawl through thoughtful role design; and build strong observability through logging, metrics, and reporting in our SIEM
- You’ll modernize access reviews to deliver real security impact with minimal friction, continuously de-risk IAM threats, and partner closely with teams to drive adoption of secure-by-default patterns
- Your work will directly protect Moveworks’ most critical systems while enabling our engineers to move fast, safely, and confidently
- Be the technical developer to drive IAM application development: Code, design, and implement solutions with extensive knowledge in AWS, Azure, Teleport, and Terraform. Enabling robust and reliable solutions to keep our engineering teams active
- Drive IAM projects end-to-end: Take ambiguous access problems, understand and have the ability to define requirements, architect solutions, and own the rollout/operationalization (not just the design)
- Develop with secure access models in mind: Continuously develop role design improvements and access assignment patterns across AWS, Kubernetes, SaaS apps, and internal systems to reduce unnecessary privileges, minimize manual grants, and create scalable “safe baseline” access that covers routine work without daily elevation
- Develop on operationalizing logging and metrics: Ensure access changes are observable in our Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) tool; build repeatable reporting that surfaces risky access and drift
- Run and improve user access reviews (UAR): Develop, execute and design a UAR process & solution that meets compliance requirements while improving real security signal—minimizing approver burden through scoping, automation, and clear decision support
- Develop technology to continuously de-risk: Identify high-risk permissions and misuse paths, propose appropriate controls and mitigations, drive adoption with partner teams, and develop solutions to continuously de-risk
- Operate with strong security judgment and high signal: Reliably distinguish meaningful IAM risk from noise, gather context efficiently, and escalate with crisp rationale and actionable mitigations
- Document and standardize the paved road: Write lightweight procedures, runbooks, and automation so access decisions are consistent, scalable, and not dependent on tribal knowledge
Our take
ServiceNow provides cloud-based solutions that define, structure, manage, and automate services for enterprise operations, transforming old, manual ways of working into modern digital workflows. The company was founded in 2004 with a vision to build a cloud-based platform that would enable regular people to route work effectively through the enterprise.
Much as Salesforce enables a company to manage its external clients by keeping a record of all contacts and interactions, ServiceNow promises an internal system to meet the needs of employees. It has succeeded in claiming half the market, setting itself apart from legacy IT service-management software players like BMC Software, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Cherwell Software and CA Technologies.
The company's success comes from two product traits: simplicity and customisability. ServiceNow's IT tools don't require the IT department to set them up. Once running, they offer a single collection centre for requests, data points and checklists, all of which can in turn be analysed by algorithms to predict needs, flag concerns and measure efficiency.
The company has more than 7,700 customers, including 85% of the Fortune 500 list of the United States' largest corporations. ServiceNow now looks to increase its revenue threefold in the upcoming years and has entered into a 5-year partnership plan with Visa, beginning with the launch of a Visa-integrated dispute resolution solution for issuers. The company is prioritising organic growth over mergers and acquisitions, with a target revenue of $15B, something which its Visa partnership will no doubt aid in achieving.
