Job Description

Leidos is seeking an ICAM Security Engineer to implement and integrate identity, credential, and access management for the Leidos Common Automation Platform (L-CAP). The position operates in a SAFe/Agile environment supporting government air traffic programs, with a focus on secure authorization, auditability, and certificate lifecycle controls.

Core Responsibilities

Implement the identity, credential, and access management (ICAM) layer that governs all user and service interactions with L-CAP.
Integrate L-CAP with government-provided ICAM services and enforce per-session authorization across distributed mission services.
Establish access control and audit foundations used by operational and support users.
Integrate L-CAP services with government ICAM services using OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect, including token issuance, validation, and claims mapping.
Implement and maintain identity federation and user stores (Keycloak or equivalent), including role-based test account provisioning.
Implement per-session authentication and authorization for user-to-service and service-to-service requests, enforcing default-deny access regardless of network location.
Implement mutual TLS (mTLS), service mesh/workload identity, and certificate lifecycle management, including issuance, rotation, expiration monitoring, and revocation.
Design and implement role-based (RBAC) and attribute-based (ABAC) access controls aligned to operational and support roles.
Implement authentication and session management for operational users, including sign-in/sign-out and time-on-position logging.
Implement authentication and authorization audit logging, including event capture, storage, and retrieval.
Implement API gateway authorization and ensure external-facing endpoints are registered and protected through the API management layer.
Support security authorization and continuous monitoring by producing ICAM control evidence, resolving identity integration issues across distributed services, and leveraging AI-assisted development and automation to improve quality and delivery.

Required Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Cybersecurity, Computer Science, Information Technology, or related field with 4+ years of relevant experience. Additional experience, education, and training may be considered in lieu of degree.
Hands-on experience with OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect, including token validation, introspection, and claims mapping.
Experience with enterprise identity providers and federation such as Keycloak, Okta, Ping, Microsoft Entra ID, or equivalent.
Experience implementing RBAC and/or ABAC within distributed applications.
Working knowledge of PKI, certificate lifecycle management, mTLS, and/or service mesh identity.
Understanding of Zero Trust principles, including per-session authorization and default-deny service communication.
Experience implementing audit logging for access and authorization events.
Proficiency in Java, Python, Go, or a comparable programming/scripting language.
Working knowledge of NIST SP 800-53 Access Control (AC) and Audit and Accountability (AU) controls.
Experience with Kubernetes and containerized service deployments.
