Preference will be given to candidates residing in the Eastern or Central time zones.

As a Non-Human Identity (NHI) Manager, you will lead the enterprise program that secures machine and workload identities across cloud, on-premises, and CI/CD environments. You will guide the full identity lifecycle and partner with Platform Engineering, Cloud, DevOps, Security Operations, and Application teams to reduce risk from hard-coded and unmanaged credentials. 

What you will do: 

• Own the enterprise non-human identity security strategy, roadmap, operating model, governance, and reporting. 

• Establish identity and access controls for API credentials and emerging AI agent identities. 

• Support SOX, HIPAA, ISO 27001, and NIST CSF compliance and audit requirements through non-human identity risk reporting. 

Technical Responsibilities: 

• Establish and operate discovery and inventory processes for service accounts, secrets, certificates, keys, and workload identities across the enterprise. 

• Deploy and operate secrets management and machine identity platforms, including HashiCorp Vault, CyberArk Conjur, Azure Key Vault, or Venafi. 

• Manage PKI and govern certificate issuance, renewal, rotation, revocation, and decommissioning to prevent outages caused by expired certificates. 

• Automate secret rotation and eliminate hard-coded or embedded credentials in code and pipelines. 

• Secure managed identities, IAM roles, service principals, and other cloud workload identities using least-privilege access and short-lived credentials. 

• Integrate non-human identity controls into CI/CD pipelines, DevOps workflows, cloud platforms, and infrastructure-as-code practices. 

Leadership & People Management Responsibilities: 

• Lead analysts and engineers by setting standards, priorities, performance expectations, and accountability for program delivery. 

• Drive cross-functional adoption of service account onboarding, ownership, attestation, and decommissioning practices. 

Knowledge and Capabilities: 

• Assess identity risk, analyze complex security issues, and translate findings into practical controls and remediation priorities. 

• Communicate non-human identity risks, decisions, and program requirements to technical teams, business partners, and audit stakeholders. 

• Apply Zero Trust and least-privilege principles across machine, workload, cloud, API, and AI agent identities. 

What You Need: 

Required Qualifications 

• Bachelors degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Information Systems, Engineering, or a related discipline. 

• Minimum 8 years of experience in identity, cloud, or cybersecurity, including a minimum 3 years of experience focused on machine or non-human identity security. 

• Hands-on experience with HashiCorp Vault, CyberArk Conjur, Azure Key Vault, Venafi, or comparable secrets management and machine identity platforms. 

• Experience with PKI, certificate lifecycle management, and automated credential rotation. 

• Experience securing cloud workload identities and service principals in Azure, AWS, or GCP. 

• Experience with CI/CD, DevOps, infrastructure-as-code security, people leadership, Zero Trust, and least-privilege controls. 

Preferred Qualifications 

• Masters degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Information Systems, Engineering, or a related discipline. 

• CISSP, HashiCorp Vault, Venafi, or relevant cloud security certification.
