HealthEdge provides AI-powered operational infrastructure and healthcare technology for health insurance companies, supporting payer operations, care management, and member engagement. The Cloud IAM Operations Engineer will manage day-to-day identity and access provisioning across AWS, implement approved access using Infrastructure as Code, administer just-in-time access workflows, and support access reviews, audit readiness, and security process improvements.
Responsibilities
- Review AWS access requests against least-privilege and organizational access policy
- Provision and implement approved access using Infrastructure as Code (CDK preferred; or similar IaC tools considered)
- Manage and maintain the organization's Just-In-Time (JIT) access management tool, ensuring all human-use AWS access is provisioned on-demand through JIT workflows rather than persistent permissions, reinforcing least-privilege and audit readiness
- Maintain accurate, auditable records of access grants, changes, and revocations
- Identify and escalate access requests that fall outside standard policy or carry elevated risk
- Support periodic access reviews and recertification processes
- Contribute to runbooks and documentation to improve consistency and repeatability of the access request lifecycle
- Partner with security architecture and IAM leadership on process improvements and automation opportunities
- Conduct periodic reviews of AWS IAM permission sets using IAM Access Analyzer and other tooling to identify unused permissions and overly permissive policies, refining access controls to align with least-privilege principles across the environments
Skills
- 24 years of experience in cloud security, IAM, or cloud technologies in AWS
- Working experience with AWS IAM fundamentals (roles, policies, permission sets, leastprivilege design)
- This is a people-facing role, and the ideal candidate will bring strong interpersonal and communication skills alongside relevant technical experience
- Working experience with Infrastructure as Code (CDK preferred; Pulumi, or CloudFormation also considered)
- Understanding of access review and audit requirements in a regulated environment
- Working experience implementing or administering Just-In-Time (JIT) access management tools in a cloud environment, with a strong understanding of least-privilege access principles and standing-access risk reduction
- Strong attention to detail and sound judgment on what access should and shouldn't be granted
- Clear written communication for documentation and access decision records
- Remote, US
- Work across multiple time zones in a hybrid or remote work environment
- Long periods of time sitting and/or standing in front of a computer using video technology
- May require travel dependent on company needs
- Experience in a healthcare or other regulated industry (HIPAA/HITRUST-aware)
- Familiarity with identity governance tooling and access certification workflows
- Basic scripting ability (Python, TypeScript, or similar) to support IaC workflows
Benefits
