About the job:

We are seeking a highly specialized Identity DevOps Engineer to take ownership of our comprehensive Single Sign-On (SSO) platform. This role operates at the intersection of deep Identity Architecture, Cloud-Native DevOps, and legacy software engineering.

You will not just be administering an IAM system; you will be architecting its future. We need a senior-level engineer capable of navigating complex, legacy Java-based custom adapters while simultaneously driving our modern infrastructure forward using Terraform, Kubernetes, and automated CI/CD pipelines. You will be instrumental in a large-scale migration from PingFederate to PingOne, requiring both strategic architectural vision and the tactical ability to write code and automate deployments.

As a core member of the team, you will balance these high-level engineering initiatives with critical operational responsibilities, acting as the ultimate point of escalation for complex user issues and ensuring the day-to-day resiliency of our global security infrastructure.

Responsibilities:
  • Architecture & Migration: Lead complex IAM integrations and drive the architectural strategy for migrating legacy on-premise PingFederate environments to PingOne.
  • DevOps & Infrastructure: Deploy, manage, and scale IAM platforms across on-premise, hybrid, and cloud environments (Google Cloud Platform) utilizing GKE, Terraform, Helm, and Jenkins.
  • Custom Development: Manage, troubleshoot, and refactor legacy Java-based custom adapters (Java/J2EE), custom PCVs, and complex data stores within the Ping ecosystem.
  • Platform Enhancement: Streamline federated trust between Ping and Entra, deploy PingCentral for automation and customer self-service, and leverage DaVinci to enhance self-service MFA and password reset flows.
  • Security & Threat Management: Expand PingOne Protect capabilities, improve system logging and monitoring, and oversee certificate management improvements.
  • Operational Excellence: Independently handle production issues, manage day-to-day intakes and incidents, partner with the Service Desk for MFA setups, and provide robust production support on a rotational on-call basis.
Complex Escalations: Resolve advanced user experience issues spanning Active Directory, networking, and DevOps (e.g., lockouts, rogue errors, login consistency).
