We are looking for an Access Administrator to act as the primary guardian of our system security, ensuring that sensitive data is protected while empowering our team with the exact access they need to succeed. In this role, you will be the cornerstone of our compliance efforts, translating complex security requirements into streamlined, day-to-day operations.

  • Manage the User Lifecycle: Oversee the end-to-end management of user accounts, including efficient creation, modification, and deletion to maintain tight security control.
  • Enforce Privilege Standards: Validate and assign appropriate access levels based on specific roles and responsibilities, ensuring adherence to the principle of least privilege.
  • Conduct Security Audits: Lead regular audits of user accounts to proactively identify, track, and eliminate excessive or outdated access rights.
  • Implement Access Policies: Develop and maintain robust access control policies to strengthen the organization's security posture.
  • Monitor System Activity: Continuously track user access activities to detect anomalies and identify potential threats or vulnerabilities.
  • Execute Incident Response: Investigate access control violations, provide prompt resolution, document all incidents, and escalate to cross-functional teams when necessary.
  • Drive Continuous Improvement: Analyze post-incident data, prepare detailed reports, and propose process enhancements to optimize security workflows.

What You Bring

  • Experience: 1–2 years of hands-on experience in access management, account administration, or information security.
  • Core Knowledge: A strong understanding of access management principles and industry-standard security best practices.
  • Technical Proficiency: Demonstrated experience working with IAM (Identity and Access Management) systems and directory services such as Active Directory, LDAP, or similar.
  • Communication: Exceptional ability to translate complex security concepts into clear, actionable information for employees at all organizational levels.
  • Problem-Solving: Strong analytical skills with the ability to troubleshoot and resolve security incidents efficiently.
  • Preferred Qualifications (Nice to Haves):
    • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Cybersecurity, or a related field.
    • Hands-on experience with the Okta access management platform.
    • Familiarity with regulatory standards such as ISO27001, ISO27701, PCI DSS, or GDPR.
    • Experience automating access management tasks via scripting.
    • Relevant industry certifications (e.g., CISSP, CISM, or similar).

What's in It for You

  • True Ownership: You will have the autonomy to influence our security roadmap and make architectural decisions that protect our production environments.
  • Impactful Work: Your work directly safeguards real-money flows and critical financial data, making a tangible difference in the security of our users.
  • Collaborative Culture: Join a cross-functional team of experts in engineering, fraud, and payments who value security and knowledge sharing.
  • Continuous Growth: We invest in your professional development through support for advanced certifications, conference attendance, and research time.
  • Competitive Benefits: We offer a comprehensive benefits package, including competitive compensation, health coverage, and flexible working arrangements.

Prepare your application

Use the description above to assess your fit for LionHires. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.

Match requirements to evidence

Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.

Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.

Check the working arrangement

Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.

Review before submitting

Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.

Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.

Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
