Job Description

We are seeking a skilled Cloud Engineer / Identity & Access Specialist with hands-on experience implementing Single Sign-On (SSO) authentication for Amazon Redshift using Active Directory (AD) federation with OIDC/SAML. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM), enterprise IdPs (Azure AD, Okta, Ping, etc.), and secure integration of data platforms into corporate identity ecosystems.

Responsibilities:

  • Design, implement, and maintain SSO authentication flows for Amazon Redshift using OIDC/SAML-based federation with Active Directory and enterprise IdPs.
  • Configure and manage IAM roles, trust policies, and STS token-based authentication to enable secure Redshift access.
  • Integrate Redshift with Azure AD/Okta/other IdPs to support role-based access control (RBAC) for business and technical users.    
  • Automate Redshift credential management using AWS SDKs, Redshift API (GetClusterCredentials), and token-based authentication.
  • Collaborate with security and compliance teams to ensure solutions meet enterprise security standards (MFA, conditional access, least privilege).
  • Troubleshoot and optimize JDBC/ODBC client connectivity for BI tools (Tableau, Power BI, etc.) using federated authentication.
  • Document authentication flows, policies, and procedures for both technical teams and end users.
