Senior GRC Engineer

THE POSITION
Our roster has an opening with your name on it

Our team is expanding — and we’re looking for a Senior GRC Engineer with deep skills in Identity Governance to drive the design and engineering of scalable, secure, and automated IAM solutions across FanDuel Group.

This role sits at the intersection of architecture, automation, and assurance — ideal for someone who thrives on solving complex identity challenges at scale. You’ll collaborate with Security, Infrastructure, and Application teams to build integrations, enhance governance workflows, and modernize how access is controlled and monitored across the enterprise.

As an individual contributor, you’ll not only execute but also influence design and strategy decisions, mentor peers, and play a critical role in embedding Zero Trust and identity-centric security principles across FanDuel.

In addition to the specific responsibilities outlined above, employees may be required to perform other such duties as assigned by the Company. This ensures operational flexibility and allows the Company to meet evolving business needs.

THE GAME PLAN
Everyone on our team has a part to play

• Design & Architecture: Lead the design of scalable IAM/IGA architectures, integrations, and process automations supporting identity lifecycle management, access requests, and certification campaigns.
• Integration & Automation: Develop and maintain integrations with HR systems, IdPs (Eg. Okta, Ping Identity, AD/Entra-ID, etc.), and cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), and SaaS solutions, via APIs, Python, SFTP, etc.
• Process Optimization: Identify and drive continuous improvement opportunities within IAM workflows — reduce manual tasks, improve auditability, and increase efficiency through automation.
• Governance & Compliance: Ensure IAM controls align with SOX, NIST CSF 2.0, and other frameworks; prepare evidence and documentation for internal and external audits.
• Privileged Access & Risk-Based Controls: Support privileged access management (PAM) initiatives, adaptive authentication, and risk-based decisioning.
• Data & Analytics: Leverage IAM/IGA data for access risk scoring, trends, and segregation of duty analysis (SoD).
• Collaboration & Influence: Partner with engineering and compliance teams to embed “policy as code” and governance controls directly into CI/CD and operational pipelines.
• Mentorship: Guide junior engineers and analysts on IAM/IGA best practices and solution design.

• Hands-on experience with IGA platforms (e.g., Saviynt, SailPoint, Zilla, or similar).
• Expertise in integration development using APIs and scripting languages (Python, Bash, PowerShell).
• Solid understanding of federation and access control standards (SAML, OAuth, OIDC).
• Experience with cloud identity governance in SaaS/IaaS platforms (AWS IAM, Okta, Ping Entra-ID, etc.).
• Familiarity with compliance frameworks beyond SOX — e.g., NIST, SOC2, PCI-DSS.
• Experience preparing audit evidence and control documentation.
• Knowledge of privileged access management concepts user lifecycle monitoring, and segregation of duties.
• Experience with automation/orchestration tools (Tines, Terraform, Workato, Rego/OPA, or similar).
