About this role

GuidePoint Security provides trusted cybersecurity expertise, solutions and services that help organizations make better decisions and minimize risk. By taking a three-tiered, holistic approach for evaluating security posture and ecosystems, GuidePoint enables some of the nation’s top organizations, such as Fortune 500 companies and U.S. government agencies, to identify threats, optimize resources and integrate best-fit solutions that mitigate risk.

General Description GuidePoint Security is hiring a Senior Access Management Engineer specializing in Cisco Duo to join our implementation team on a full-time basis. This is a fully remote role where we are looking for deep, hands-on experience leading Duo Security deployments, migrations, and integrations — with secondary proficiency in Okta and/or Ping Identity platforms to support broader Access Management engagements.

The Senior Access Management Engineer is responsible for designing, deploying, integrating, and optimizing Duo MFA and access solutions for some of the largest organizations in the US. This role serves as the go-to technical lead for all Duo engagements, owning architecture decisions, integration design, and delivery execution. When Duo engagements are not fully utilizing capacity, this resource will flex into a supporting engineer role on Okta and Ping Identity projects, contributing hands-on technical work under the direction of the engagement's lead architect.

This role sits at the intersection of security, infrastructure, and application integration — ensuring that multi-factor authentication, device trust, and adaptive access policies are implemented securely, reliably, and at scale. About the Access Management practice Coming to the Access Management team means working on the leading edge in the IAM space. As a Senior Access Management Engineer, you will be partnering with other engineers and architects to help some of the largest companies in the US implement their own identity and access management programs.

From participating in assessments to full delivery of IAM platforms, you can expect to be involved at all levels of interaction with our customers. Your leadership and expertise are critical to providing our customers with the guidance they need, and the excellence they expect from GuidePoint Security. We partner with the largest vendors in the space to ensure that the latest training is always available to our team. High level communication and collaboration are the standard.
