Description Vacancy : Solution Architect IAM

Create the future architecture of IAM for Rabobank to meet our ambitious and advanced IAM 2026-targets at Rabobank in a small team of dedicated solution architects.

You & your position
There are only a few places in the Netherlands where you can work in a large scale IAM environment, with a high level of complexity while using the latest, advanced IAM tools & technologies … and this is one of them!
IAM at Rabobank ensures that employees have proper and secure access. We prevent (un)conscious risks or fraud and ensure compliance with laws and regulations. IAM serves as the front door from which employees gain access and it is a key element in securing Rabobank’s infrastructure, applications and data.
Rabobank has a state-of-the-art IAM platform using best-of-breed technologies. By using these existing capabilities and adding innovative, new applications such as PBAC (Policy Based Access Control) we want to achieve new milestones for IAM: seamless and invisible for end users, fully Cloud supported and plug & play for our IT colleagues.
As part of the IAM architecture team your key responsibility is to translate our IAM vision into architecture and specifications, interacting with key stakeholders to achieve the best possible result. The team you will be part of consists of 3-5 Solution Architects and takes responsibility for the full architecture lifecycle, from new idea’s into clear specifications and principles ready for detailed design.
We expect you have a good, generic overview and understanding of the capabilities of IAM solutions so as to match needs and requirements to standards and capabilities of the tools we work with.
Continuous improvement is self-evident to you, and you dare to be critical of the current working method and tooling. You are a go-getter who prefers to work in a team. You stand for high-quality products and everything that goes with them. This makes you a versatile member of the team.

You will also play a key role in monitoring and ensuring the quality of the work of the DevOps team and act as an expert in IAM capabilities and security control discussions.

Together we achieve more than each of us individually
