Cyber Identity - PlainID/PBAC Engineering Manager II

About the role

Join our Deloitte Cyber team to deliver powerful solutions that help clients navigate the ever-changing threat landscape. As an experienced PlainID professional at Deloitte Consulting, you will combine deep technical ownership with engineering expertise, governance, and stakeholder management to deliver PBAC/ABAC authorization tools, including PlainID.

Responsibilities

• Configure and implement the PlainID Authorization Platform within client environments, including policy modelling and decision-point/information-point setup.
• Lead technical discussions with Enterprise architects and IAM stakeholders.
• Lead a PBAC team for successful and seamless delivery.
• Design fine-grained, attribute-based access policies (PBAC/ABAC) that translate business rules into technical controls, including row- and column-level data access restrictions where needed.
• Integrate PlainID with client identity providers (Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, Ping Identity, ForgeRock), API gateways, microservices, and data platforms such as Snowflake or Big Query.
• Support the full policy lifecycle—authoring, testing, versioning, and deployment—using PlainID's visual policy modeling and policy-as-code capabilities.
• Run requirements sessions with client stakeholders to document current-state access patterns and design the target-state authorization model.
• Troubleshoot policy conflicts, integration issues, and authorization-decision errors across the client's technology stack.
• Lead testing, validation, and go-live activities, including access-decision auditing and performance checks.
• Produce clear technical documentation—policy catalogs, integration diagrams, runbooks—for both the client and the internal delivery team.
• Partner with engagement leads and architects to keep delivery on track and surface risks early.
• Stay current on PlainID's platform roadmap, including emerging capabilities for AI agent and machine-identity authorization.
• Establish and maintain runbooks, SOPs, knowledge articles, and documentation standards for repeatable and governed support operations.
• Lead conversations with client stakeholders, internal teams, and third-party vendors to resolve defects, manage dependencies, and improve service outcomes.

Requirements

• 7+ years of total experience, including strong hands-on experience in PlainID and access management implementation.
• 3+ years with access control models—specifically PBAC—and how each maps to real enterprise use cases.
• 3+ years of experience integrating and supporting complex integrations and connectors for PIP integration.
• Strong knowledge of ensuring compliance with internal and external regulations, including SOX, GDPR, and ISO standards.
• Experience integrating with identity providers and standard protocols: OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, SAML, JWT.
• Comfort with policy-as-code concepts and reading/writing structured policy logic (e.g., Rego or similar rules-based languages).
• Working knowledge of APIs and microservices architectures, plus experience with at least one API gateway (Apigee, Kong, Azure API Management, or similar).
• Proven ownership of CAB/change governance, release management, and stakeholder management.
• Advanced troubleshooting capability with strong knowledge of PlainID integration.
• Ability to travel 25-50%, on average, based on the work you do and the clients and industries/sectors you serve.
• Limited immigration sponsorship may be available.

Preferred Qualifications

• Previous consulting or Big 4 experience.
• Experience with RBAC, ABAC.
• Strong documentation, reporting, and executive communication skills.
• Ability to manage vendor coordination.
