Set the identity standards for non-human identities across Veza’s integrations, covering how connectors authenticate, get scoped, and rotate secrets.
Core architecture
Define identity contracts that the graph, data model, and integrations architects build against, and review designs in those areas for identity correctness.
Shape how identity fits into the Veza-ServiceNow integration model, including shared identity and data contracts and UI surfacing patterns.
Partner with the integrations, graph, and deployment owners on decisions that touch identity, without taking over their domains.
Leadership
Represent Veza’s identity architecture to customers, partners, ServiceNow Security leadership, and standards bodies.
Mentor engineers
What you bring
12+ years in security or identity engineering, with a substantial share spent designing identity systems in production at scale.
Strong background in identity and access: IGA, IAM, PAM, authorization models, access reviews, lifecycle management, or adjacent security domains.
Deep hands-on expertise in workload identity, specifically SPIFFE/SPIRE or an equivalent, and in ephemeral credential design. You can explain trust bootstrapping and rotation failure modes without notes.
Strong grounding in OAuth 2.x, OIDC, token exchange, and authorization models (RBAC, ABAC, ReBAC, and policy engines such as OPA or Cedar).
Understanding of non-human identity (service accounts, secrets, API keys, workload identity) and emerging agent identity and authorization models.
Experience building security products that meet their own security and compliance bar (SOC 2, FedRAMP or equivalent, data residency).
Experience delivering production AI or agentic systems, including evaluation, guardrails, and human-in-the-loop controls.
Active use of AI-native development tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or equivalent).
Strong Python or Go, with the ability to go deep in code and design reviews.
Executive-level communication, with the ability to defend an identity decision to engineers, customers, and security leadership.
Breadth to hold your own on graph data models, integration architecture, and multi-region deployment, even if you don’t own them.
Preferred
Experience through an acquisition or platform integration, aligning an acquired architecture with a parent platform.
Experience with integration-heavy platforms and the authentication and secrets challenges they bring.
Familiarity with graph databases or immutable or event-sourced storage models.
Authored or shaped identity standards or RFCs.
Built or operated a production credential broker or identity provider.
BS/MS in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent experience.
Success in the first 12 months
A published identity architecture for workload and agent access, with committed milestones.
A defined, adopted model for ephemeral credentials across Veza’s services and integrations.
A runtime authorization design for agents that Product and Sales can take to customers.
Identity contracts agreed with the graph, integrations, and deployment owners.
