Title: Senior Automation Engineer - Identity Governance



Client: The Walt Disney Company



Duration: 4+ months



Location: Burbank, CA, or Seattle, WA or Orlando, FL (4x per week onsite)



Work Requirements: US Citizen, GC Holders, or Authorized to Work in the U.S.


Description:

• We are seeking a Senior Automation Engineer to design and build continuous, policy-driven remediation automation for identity governance and compliance gaps across a complex enterprise directory ecosystem.
• This role is critical to achieving our FY26-FY27 outcomes, including automated enforcement of identity hygiene, elimination of manual remediation, continuous compliance monitoring, and scalable governance for both human and non-human identities. The engineer will work closely with IAM architects, security, and platform teams to move the organization from reactive remediation to self-healing identity controls by default.

Key Responsibilities:


Automated Governance & Compliance Remediation

• Build automation that detects and remediates identity governance violations across Active Directory and Entra ID, including inactive accounts, orphaned identities, misconfigurations, and policy drift.

Implement event- and time-based remediation workflows, such as:

• Automatic disablement of inactive accounts after defined thresholds (e.g., 90 days)
• Automatic deletion of disabled accounts after remediation windows elapse
• Automate remediation of identified AD and identity security findings, eliminating manual, ticket-driven cleanup.

Continuous Identity Hygiene Automation

• Engineer automated controls for:
  • Service account password rotation and expiration notifications
  • Enforcement of baseline identity security standards across domains and tenants
• Ensure identities remain compliant throughout their entire lifecycle, not just at creation or audit time.

Identity Lifecycle & Zero Standing Privilege

• Partner with IAM architects to automate least-privilege and just-in-time access models, reducing and eliminating standing privileged access.
• Support automated human and non-human identity governance, including lifecycle enforcement and privilege clean-up.

Monitoring, Signals, and Self-Healing Controls

• Build automation that integrates monitoring signals, policy outcomes, and directory health data into closed-loop remediation pipelines.
• Enable continuous monitoring and regular AD health checks with automated response where feasible.

Scale, Standardization, and Platform Thinking

• Design reusable automation frameworks and remediation patterns that can be applied across:
  • Multiple domains and tenants
  • Business units with varying maturity
• Help evolve Directory Services into a standardized, automated identity platform, not a collection of scripts.

Required Education:

• BA/BS Degree Comp Sci/IS or related field
