Job description

A leading IT Consultancy is seeking an IAM ForgeRock Developer on a contact basis.

We are seeking an experienced ForgeRock Developer to design, build, and support enterprise Identity & Access Management (IAM) solutions using the ForgeRock platform. The role will focus on implementing and customizing ForgeRock Access Management (AM), Identity Management (IDM), and Directory Services (DS) to enable secure authentication, authorization, federation, SSO, and lifecycle management across applications and APIs. You will work closely with security architects, application teams, and DevOps to deliver scalable, highly available IAM services.

Required Skills & Experience
10-12 years of overall IT experience with minimum 8 years of relevant hands-on experience in ForgeRock/IAM implementations.
Strong experience with ForgeRock Access Management (AM) including authentication trees/journeys, SSO, policy agents, and authorization policies.
Strong experience with ForgeRock Identity Management (IDM) including provisioning, reconciliation, workflows, mappings, and connectors.
Experience with ForgeRock Directory Services (DS/OpenDJ), LDAP concepts, schema, replication, and performance tuning.
Solid understanding of IAM concepts: identity lifecycle, access governance (foundational), RBAC/ABAC, least privilege, and zero trust principles.
Hands-on implementation experience with SAML 2.0, OAuth 2.0, OIDC, OpenAM/OpenIDM concepts, JWT, and REST APIs.
Proficiency in Java and Scripting (JavaScript and/or Groovy); ability to build custom components and integrations.
Experience with web/application security fundamentals: TLS/certificates, cookies, sessions, OWASP basics, and secure coding practices.
Working knowledge of Linux, networking basics (DNS, Firewall rules, reverse proxies/load balancers), and troubleshooting in distributed environments.
Experience with source control and build/deploy tools (Git, Maven/Gradle) and CI/CD pipelines (eg, Jenkins/Azure DevOps/GitLab CI).
Strong communication skills and ability to work with cross-functional stakeholders (security, infra, app dev, product).
