Our team of over 450 employees thrives in an inclusive culture that values individuals from diverse backgrounds, regardless of their level of sports fandom.

What you’ll do:
  • Own, manage, and automate the identity lifecycle, including onboarding, offboarding, and access changes, ensuring secure, timely, and auditable access controls.

  • Create a comprehensive access matrix aligned to job functions and least-privilege principles.
  • Identify applications and systems that are outside of centralized identity controls, assess risk, and drive remediation or integration into standard IAM controls.
  • Ensure identity and access practices align with internal security frameworks and applicable regulatory requirements, supporting audit readiness and ongoing compliance efforts.
  • Partner closely with Engineering, Security, Compliance, IT, and business stakeholders to evaluate access risks and implement sustainable governance solutions.
  • Support the integration of new applications into centralized identity workflows, including requirements gathering, testing, validation, and documentation.
  • Maintain clear, accurate IAM documentation, standards, and procedures to support operational consistency and audit needs.
  • Monitor identity-related events, access patterns, and review outcomes to proactively identify risks and opportunities for improvement.
What you have:
  • Extensive experience in Identity and Access Management, security engineering, or a closely related role with ownership of IAM processes.
  • Deep understanding of identity lifecycle management, RBAC, access governance, and least-privilege design.
  • Proven experience supporting security frameworks, audits, or compliance programs, including access reviews and control validation.
  • Strong working knowledge of modern authentication and authorization standards (e.g., federated identity, SSO).
  • Experience designing scalable access models that balance security, compliance, and operational efficiency.
  • Ability to assess access-related risk and translate security requirements into actionable technical controls.

What makes you stand out:

  • Experience leading or maturing an IAM or access governance program in a regulated or high-growth environment.
  • Hands-on experience automating identity, access, or compliance workflows through scripting or APIs.
  • Strong background partnering with Security, Risk, or Compliance teams on audit and regulatory initiatives.
