Lead and architect secure, scalable CIAM solutions and strategy across customer-facing products. | 8+ years CIAM/IAM experience with 3+ years in lead/security architecture roles and deep Auth0 expertise. | IDEXX’s Cyber Security and Information Security teams enable a resilient, adaptable, and security-aware enterprise—supporting the technology that delivers trusted products and solutions to customers worldwide. The Customer Identity & Access Management (CIAM) Security Architecture Lead is a senior, high-impact role within the Information Security organization, serving as the primary architectural authority and technical visionary for customer identity across IDEXX’s customer-facing ecosystem. This role is responsible for assessing, strengthening, and evolving a secure, scalable, and unified CIAM architecture that supports multiple products, customer types, and integration models—while delivering a consistent, friction-aware customer experience. IDEXX has an existing Auth0 implementation in place; however, this role will lead a comprehensive review and re-architecture of the current environment to ensure it is securely implemented, properly configured, and aligned to enterprise-scale requirements and long-term CIAM vision. While Auth0 is the current CIAM platform, this role maintains a platform-agnostic security architecture perspective, ensuring IDEXX can evolve, extend, or transition CIAM platforms as business, risk, or regulatory needs change. You will bridge executive strategy and hands-on engineering execution—defining not only what is built, but how customer identity integrates into IDEXX’s broader cyber security architecture, ensuring identity is a business enabler, not a constraint. In This Role, Your Key Responsibilities Will Include... CIAM Security Architecture & Platform Leadership: • Serve as the security architecture authority for customer identity and access management across all customer-facing products • Assess the existing Auth0 deployment and lead remediation, reconfiguration, and architectural improvements to meet enterprise security and scale requirements • Design and evolve an enterprise CIAM architecture that remains portable across other CIAM platforms (e.g., Okta CIAM, Ping Identity, ForgeRock, Microsoft Entra ID) • Establish CIAM security standards, reference architectures, control requirements, and guardrails aligned with Zero Trust principles and enterprise security strategy Strategic Roadmap & Vision • Develop and maintain a multi-year CIAM roadmap aligned with enterprise goals and digital transformation initiatives • Define future-state capabilities including SSO, MFA, passwordless authentication, adaptive authentication, modern RBAC/ABAC models, and expansion across B2B and B2C use cases • Ensure the roadmap addresses remediation of current-state gaps while enabling long-term scalability and consistency Authentication, Authorization & Federation • Architect and govern secure authentication and authorization patterns across diverse customer use cases • Design and implement federated identity integrations using OIDC, OAuth 2.0, and SAML • Support customer-managed and federated identity scenarios, including trust boundary definition, assurance levels, and delegated administration models Multi-Tenant, Admin & Delegated Access Models • Architect secure multi-tenant CIAM models supporting multiple products, customers, and environments • Design layered administrative and delegated access controls for internal operations and customer administrators • Ensure administrative access adheres to least privilege, separation of duties, and strong auditability Integrations, System Accounts & Non-Human Identity • Architect CIAM solutions supporting both human customer identities and system, service, and integration accounts • Define secure API authentication, token lifecycle management, system to system (internal and external) authentication patterns and non-interactive access patterns Security Controls, Risk & Governance • Define and validate security controls, configurations, and assurance requirements for CIAM implementations • Ensure CIAM solutions integrate with the broader security ecosystem including SIEM/SOAR, IAM/IGA, monitoring, and fraud detection platforms • Partner with GRC, Security Operations, and Product Security teams to perform threat modeling, support audits, and reduce identity-related risk Cross-Functional Leadership & Communication • Act as the primary CIAM security advisor to Product, Marketing, IT, Engineering, and Platform teams • Translate complex identity and security requirements into clear, consumable architectural guidance • Communicate CIAM strategy, risk posture, and progress to VP-level and executive leadership What You Will Need To Succeed... • 8+ years of experience in CIAM/IAM with at least 3 years in a lead or security architecture capacity • Demonstrated experience assessing, remediating, and scaling existing CIAM implementations in complex environments • Deep hands-on experience with Auth0 and at least one additional Tier-1 CIAM platform (e.g., Okta CIAM, Ping Identity, ForgeRock, Microsoft Entra ID) • Expertise in OIDC, OAuth 2.0, SAML, FIDO2/WebAuthn, and SCIM • Location: 100% remote/virtual is fine for this role. Preferred is being local/driving distance or willing to relocate to the Westbrook, Maine area, but that is not required. • Strong understanding of modern application architectures (SPAs, microservices, mobile APIs) and cloud platforms (AWS preferred) • Proven ability to translate identity risk and architectural gaps into actionable remediation and roadmap decisions • Strong understanding of Zero Trust principles, identity threat models, logging, monitoring, and auditability • Ability to communicate complex security concepts to technical and non-technical stakeholders • Proven ability to navigate a matrixed organization to accomplish goals Preferred Qualifications • Security certifications such as CISSP-ISSAP, CISM, or senior vendor certifications (e.g., Okta or Auth0 Certified Architect) • Experience with Identity-as-Code, CI/CD pipelines, and Terraform • Experience integrating CIAM with fraud detection, bot mitigation, or risk-based authentication engines • Experience supporting CIAM in regulated or high-trust environments such as healthcare or life sciences • Programming or scripting experience (Python, Java, Go, etc.) • Experience applying analytics or AI/ML to identity security or anomaly detection What Success Looks Like • A hardened, well-architected Auth0 environment aligned with enterprise security standards and long-term CIAM vision • Clear remediation of current-state CIAM security and configuration gaps • A scalable, secure CIAM foundation supporting consistent customer experiences across products • A platform-agnostic CIAM architecture that can evolve or migrate without increasing risk • Product teams enabled with secure, reusable identity patterns that accelerate delivery What You Can Expect From Us • Base annual salary target: $160000 - $180000 (yes, we do have flexibility if needed) • Opportunity for annual cash bonus and yearly equity award • Health / Dental / Vision Benefits Day-One • 5% matching 401k • Additional benefits including but not limited to financial support, pet insurance, mental health resources, volunteer paid days off, employee stock program, foundation donation matching, and much more!
