Identity And Access Engineer

7 days ago

Sydney, New South Wales, Australia The Decipher Bureau Full time

If your experience is tied to just one platform (Okta, SailPoint, etc.) this role might not be a perfect fit as this position is about understanding identity at a deeper, protocol level.
It's a role for someone who really knows how identity works under the hood, not just the tools.
This is an opportunity to build the first formal IAM function within an engineering led business scaling at speed, transitioning from manual access processes to a structured, robust identity program.
This role is critical to securing core systems and enabling scalable access management.
So...
Can you explain and compare identity protocols (SAML, OAuth, OIDC, etc.) and know when to apply each?
Do you understand protocol internals - not just definitions - and can you reason through them in practice?
Can you leverage a software engineering background to review auth code, spot issues, and recommend fixes?
Can you use tools like LLMs to speed development while staying focused on protocol-level essentials?
Can you collaborate closely with engineers, review systems like encryption key management, and keep authentication and access secure?
If you found yourself nodding "yes," this might interest you.
Here's what's in it for you...
A base salary in the $200's (plus super), depending on your experience.
You'll get to work on technically interesting things.
Think very novel stuff.
Not your basic webapps and cloud infra.
You'll be trusted to run with ideas.
Expected, even.
If you thrive in autonomy and prefer ownership over corporate red tape, this is the place for you.
You'll work with a supremely sharp team of cyber folk and engineers who care about security, quality, and doing things right.
You'll enjoy a social aspect, if that's your thing.
This isn't an "all work and no play" type place.
You'll have to be happy spending 2-3 days per week in the Sydney CBD office, but you might like that as this office has a distinct cool factor to it.
What will you be doing?
A "typical day" doesn't typically exist here, but you'll likely get involved in: Deploying Multi-Factor Authentication that actually stands up to creative, persistent phishing, across all systems and platforms.
Shaping BYOD authentication policies to keep security tight without slowing down productivity.
Building and rolling out JIT access for very high-value systems.
Owning and driving the big-picture strategy for Identity and Access Management.
Crafting secure identities for devices, products and users.
Spinning multiple plates at any one time.
Brass tacks?
This isn't a "configure and forget" position.
You'll be expected to go deep, designing, defending, and clearly articulating your decisions across authentication, access, and the underlying systems.
You'll shape systems that impact both employees and the products customers interact with.
If you've ever wanted an organisation that truly prioritises identity... this one does.
Curious?
Drop us a message and let's have a conversation.
We can share more details in confidence so you can decide if this is the right fit for you.
How to apply...
Your application is completely confidential.
Only you and I will know.
