In short

Remote Pro Ai provides vetted Identity & Access Management Engineers who treat identity as the new perimeter for people, workloads and AI agents. They implement SSO, MFA, conditional access and passwordless journeys, deploy IGA and PAM, and integrate national ID such as Nafath and UAE Pass.

Your IAM Engineer implements SSO, MFA, conditional access and passwordless journeys, and secures machine and non-human identities, secrets and service accounts. Typical stack: Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, SailPoint, Saviynt and CyberArk.

Why teams are hiring this role now

Compromised identities are now among the most common starting points for breaches, and machine and non-human identities increasingly outnumber human ones. AI agents add a new class of identity that needs scoped, auditable access. Zero-trust programmes, bank identity platforms and national-ID integration are making IAM one of the fastest-rising security specialisms.

IAM Engineer hiring FAQ

Self-serve bookings receive a shortlist within 48 hours and enterprise requests get named candidates within 72 hours. After you approve a profile and sign, your specialist is working within 4 working days, whether the request is on the bench, off-bench or on-site. When fewer than 5 IAM Engineer profiles are on the bench, we shortlist from the wider vetted network in the same 48 hours.

Pricing is quotation-based and depends on level, hours and any on-site, clearance or data-residency needs. Current bands: Mid from USD 5,120/month · Senior from USD 6,730/month · Lead from USD 8,740/month. VAT is shown separately, quotes can be viewed in SAR, AED, USD or EUR, and every quotation is valid for 30 days. The Squad Builder shows your quote instantly.

Remote Pro Ai is contractually responsible for quality. Raise it at any time: a replacement starts within 4 working days; the full handover completes in under 14 days. Your first engagement also begins with a no-bill trial, one per company: 5 working days on self-serve bookings and 10 on enterprise contracts.

This role is offered at Mid, Senior and Lead level. We never place junior profiles. A practice lead confirms each specialist’s level through a live technical assessment and reference checks, so the band on your quotation reflects scope the person has already delivered rather than a job title on a CV.

Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, Ping and Keycloak for access management; SailPoint and Saviynt for identity governance; CyberArk for privileged access. Many hold Microsoft SC-300, Okta Certified or CyberArk Defender certifications, verified with the issuer before we share profiles. Engineers also migrate between platforms when you consolidate identity providers.

Yes. Engineers connect Nafath and UAE Pass to your customer and workforce identity platforms, design fallback journeys and handle consent and audit requirements. They also set up B2B federation for partners and suppliers, so external access follows the same policies as internal access.

Engineers inventory service accounts, API keys and workload identities, replace static secrets with short-lived credentials and federation, and apply least privilege with regular review. AI agents receive scoped, delegated identities, so every action is attributable, revocable and logged. Ownerless accounts are flagged and disabled after review.

Access is granted on day one based on role, adjusted automatically when people move and removed immediately when they leave. Engineers automate this with IGA workflows and SCIM provisioning, add periodic certification and segregation-of-duties rules, and give auditors clean evidence.
