As a Staff Engineer focused on IAM, you will be the top technical authority for Identity and Access strategy at Creditas.
Your mission is to design and implement ecosystems that ensure the right person (or machine) has the right access at the right time for the right reasons.
You will work cross-functionally, influencing everything from corporate access governance to cloud service identities and APIs.
Identity Architecture: Design the long-term IAM architecture, integrating multi-cloud environments, internal applications, and third-party services.
Solution Architecture: Design and review complex authentication and authorization architectures (SSO, MFA, Passwordless) integrated with multi-cloud and on-premise environments.
Privileged Access Management (PAM): Lead the privileged access management strategy to reduce the attack surface.
Automation and Self-Service: Develop tools and automated workflows for provisioning, access reviews and Just-in-Time (JIT) access, reducing operational load and human error.
Machine Identity: Define standards for non-human identities (service accounts, secrets management, and mTLS).
Technical Leadership: Act as a mentor to other security engineers and be the reference point for platform and engineering teams on complex authentication decisions (OAuth2, OIDC, SAML).

Technical Expertise: Deep knowledge of identity protocols (SAML, OAuth2, OpenID Connect) and directories (Active Directory, Okta, Azure AD, or Google Workspace).
Cloud Security: Advanced experience in Cloud IAM (AWS), including complex SCP policies, fine-grained permissions, and identity federation.
Risk Perspective: Ability to balance strong security with the employee experience (UX), avoiding unnecessary bureaucracy.
Experience at Scale: Experience working in environments with thousands of identities and microservices.
Experience implementing Zero Trust Architecture.
Availability for hybrid work: required to attend our office in the Morumbi area of São Paulo once a month for 4 consecutive days, usually during the last or first week of the month (Creditas in Person).
