Senior Security Engineer - NHI (Machine Identity) Governance
Location: Remote | Duration: 6-Month Contract
Overview
We're seeking a Senior Engineer to lead Non-Human Identity (NHI) governance as AI adoption accelerates. This role sits at the intersection of Identity, Cloud, and Cybersecurity, owning the rollout of an NHI platform and building the operational foundation for secure AI and machine identity management.
This is a hands-on, high-visibility role with strong cross-functional impact-not a policy-only position.
Key Responsibilities
• Lead deployment and operationalization of the NHI governance platform
• Build workflows for machine identity lifecycle (provisioning, rotation, access reviews, decommissioning)
• Establish governance processes for service accounts, API keys, and tokens
• Identify and remediate orphaned or ungoverned credentials
• Partner across Identity, Cloud, Security, and AI teams to enforce scalable controls
• Develop dashboards, reporting, and operational documentation
Required Qualifications
• 5+ years in Infrastructure, Identity, or Security Engineering
• Experience with secrets management tools (e.g., HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, Azure Key Vault)
• Strong knowledge of AWS, Azure, or GCP
• Familiarity with OAuth, OIDC, SAML, and API-based authentication
• Experience implementing enterprise security or identity platforms
Nice to Have
• Experience with NHI/security platforms (e.g., Entro Security, Astrix)
• Exposure to AI agents and machine-to-machine authentication
• Security certifications (CISSP, CCSP, etc.)
Why This Role
• Greenfield build with executive support
• High-impact role supporting AI security initiatives
• Strong collaboration across engineering and security teams
