About The Position

We take play seriously. We’re looking for curious adventurers ready to find their party, fueled by imagination and drive to build what’s never been built before. At Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast, you’ll collaborate with passionate teams to reimagine our iconic brands and create experiences that spark joy, connection, and community through the magic of play. This is your chance to shape legendary play that lasts a lifetime. At Wizards of the Coast, we connect people around the world through play and imagination. From our genre-defining games like Magic: The Gathering® and Dungeons & Dragons® to our growing multiverse, we continue to innovate and build new ways to foster friendship and connection. That’s where you come in! We are looking for a Principal Identity Engineer to act as the technical authority across our entire Identity portfolio. Reporting into Identity Engineering leadership within Core Platform Engineering, you will be responsible for the architecture for our Zero Trust Identity program, the consolidation of our identity providers, the expansion of privileged access management, and the maturation of identity governance. This is a hands-on individual-contributor role for an engineer who sets the technical direction, drives the hardest decisions, and brings deep expertise to the security-critical work that keeps our studios and players safe.

Requirements

10+ years of progressive experience in identity and access management, security engineering, or platform engineering, with demonstrated principal-level technical ownership.
Deep, hands-on expertise architecting and operating modern identity platforms, including Okta Identity Cloud and Microsoft Entra ID.
Proven experience designing and implementing Zero Trust identity architectures across hybrid cloud and on-premises environments.
Strong command of privileged access management, with hands-on CyberArk architecture and implementation experience.
Experience maturing identity governance and administration programs, including Saviynt, RBAC, separation of duties, access certification, and JML automation.
Solid understanding of AWS IAM Identity Center and cloud identity in multi-account environments.
Experience with Active Directory modernization, Entra ID conditional access, and federation across enterprise applications.
Solid coding or scripting ability (Python, PowerShell, or similar), with experience building automation and integrations that other engineers and operators rely on — you don't need a software-engineering background, but you need to be genuinely comfortable writing and maintaining code, not just stitching together vendor scripts.
Experience contributing to architectural design: you've written or co-written design docs, weighed build-vs-buy and platform trade-offs, and can defend a technical decision to both engineers and executives.
Working knowledge of API design and integration patterns (REST, SCIM, SAML, OIDC) for connecting identity platforms to enterprise systems.
A track record of leading security-critical remediation work under incident-response pressure while maintaining engineering rigor.
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to influence technical direction and articulate trade-offs to engineering and executive audiences alike.

Nice To Haves

Hands-on experience with Palo Alto Cloud Identity Engine or comparable network-identity integration.
Experience governing identity in a multi-studio, multi-brand, or holding-company environment.
Relevant certifications such as Okta Certified Professional/Consultant, Microsoft Identity and Access Administrator.
Experience with infrastructure-as-code and automation frameworks applied to identity workflows.

Responsibilities

Serve as the principal technical architect for the Identity portfolio, owning end-to-end design across the consolidated identity provider strategy, privileged access, and identity governance.
Architect and advance the Zero Trust Identity program, ensuring identity is the control plane for secure, conditional access across cloud and on-premises resources.
Lead the consolidation and convergence of identity providers, unifying Okta Identity Cloud, Microsoft Entra ID, and AWS IAM Identity Center under a coherent, governable architecture.
Own the architecture and expansion of CyberArk privileged access management, hardening privileged account workflows, vaulting, and session controls.
Drive the maturity of Saviynt identity governance and administration, including role-based access control, separation of duties, access certification, and Joiner-Mover-Leaver lifecycle automation.
Architect Active Directory modernization and cloud integration, reducing legacy dependencies while preserving operational continuity.
Define and govern the Studio Identity & Resource Architecture (SIRA) group model and non-employee identity lifecycle to ensure consistent, auditable access across studios.
Partner with the Network Engineering team on Palo Alto Cloud Identity Engine integration to extend identity context into network and threat-response decisions.
Serve as a senior technical driver on incident-response remediation, including privileged account hardening, phishing-resistant MFA, conditional access hardening, and inactive account remediation tied to the RIPPLECREW response.
Design, build, and maintain production-grade software — identity automation services, custom connectors, and orchestration workflows — applying real software engineering discipline: version control, code review, automated testing, and CI/CD.
Lead architectural design for identity systems and integrations, producing reference architectures, design documents, sequence diagrams, and technical specifications that guide implementation across the Identity Engineering team and its partners.
Build and own API-level integrations (REST, SCIM, SAML, OIDC) connecting Okta, Entra ID, Saviynt, and CyberArk to internal systems, replacing manual identity operations with code-first, repeatable solutions.
Apply AI and automation to identity engineering itself — building intelligent access-review and certification workflows, anomaly and risk-based access detection, and AI-assisted policy, log, and code analysis that reduce manual toil and sharpen security signal.
Champion Infrastructure-as-Code (e.g., Terraform, Pulumi) for identity platform configuration, ensuring identity infrastructure is version-controlled, peer-reviewed, and deployed through repeatable pipelines rather than manual console changes.
Establish identity engineering standards, reference architectures, and automation patterns that raise the bar for the broader Core Platform organization.
Mentor senior and mid-level identity engineers — in identity architecture as well as in software engineering and automation practice — elevating the team's technical depth while remaining a hands-on contributor.
