Identity
& Access Management (IAM) Engineer
Infrastructure
& Directory Services|Healthcare Environment|Full-Time
Position
Summary
We are
- seeking an IAM Engineer to own identity infrastructure and access lifecycle
- operations across the enterprise. This role is focused on directory services,
- authentication, and identity governance at the platform level — Active
- Directory, Microsoft Entra ID, SSO, MFA, and automated provisioning. EHR
- application security (Epic templates, security classes, user profiles) is
- handled by a separate clinical applications team; this role supports that team
- upstream by ensuring accurate, timely identity data and account lifecycle
- events but does not perform EHR provisioning.
Key
Responsibilities
- •Administer on-prem Active Directory and
- Microsoft Entra ID: user and group lifecycle, OU structure, GPOs, hybrid sync
- (Entra Connect), and conditional access policies.
- •Execute and automate joiner/mover/leaver
- processes driven by the HR system of record, ensuring same-day deprovisioning
- of departed workforce members across AD, M365, VPN, and downstream systems.
- •Configure and maintain SSO integrations (SAML
- 2.0, OIDC) for enterprise and third-party applications; onboard new
- applications to the identity platform.
- •Deploy and support multifactor authentication
- and passwordless initiatives across employed staff, credentialed providers,
- contractors, and students.
- •Support badge-tap / fast user switching for
- clinical workstations (e.g., Imprivata OneSign) in coordination with desktop
- engineering.
- •Maintain role-based access models at the
- directory and group level; remediate access creep and orphaned or stale
- accounts.
- •Run periodic access certification campaigns;
- produce evidence for HIPAA, HITRUST, SOC 2, and internal audit requests.
- •Administer privileged access management for
- admin and service accounts, including vaulting, rotation, and session
- monitoring.
- •Manage non-employee identity: vendors,
- travelers, locum tenens providers, students, and affiliate users outside the HR
- feed.
- •Monitor and investigate identity-related
- security events; support incident response and inappropriate-access
- investigations with Security and Privacy/Compliance.
- •Document standards, runbooks, and workflows;
- contribute to the IAM roadmap and automation backlog.
Requirements
- •3–5+ years in identity and access management
- or systems administration with a heavy identity focus.
- •Deep hands-on expertise with Active Directory
- and Entra ID in a hybrid environment.
- •Working knowledge of SAML, OIDC/OAuth 2.0,
- SCIM, LDAP, and Kerberos.
- •Experience deploying MFA and conditional
- access at enterprise scale.
- •PowerShell scripting for AD/Entra automation
- and reporting.
- •Experience supporting audits and access
- reviews in a regulated environment.
- •Understanding of least-privilege and HIPAA
- “minimum necessary” principles.
Preferred
- •Experience in a hospital or health system IT
- environment.
- •IGA platform experience (SailPoint, Saviynt,
- Okta Identity Governance, or similar).
- •PAM tooling (CyberArk, Delinea).
- •Imprivata OneSign or comparable clinical SSO.
- •HR-to-identity integration experience
- (Workday, UKG, or Oracle HCM feeds).
- •Certifications: SC-300 (Microsoft Identity and
- Access Administrator), Security+, CISSP, or CIDPRO.
What
This Role Is Not
- This position
- does not include Epic or other EHR application security build. Candidates will
- not manage Epic security classes, templates, or user records — that function is
- owned by the clinical applications team.
Work
Environment
Hybrid/on-site
- per organizational policy; participation in an on-call rotation for
- identity-impacting incidents (account lockouts affecting clinical operations,
- termination escalations).
