About the role

As a Keycloak Senior Developer, you will be a senior technical contributor delivering Keycloak configurations and extensions for a distributed environment.

You will work closely with the Technical Lead to implement robust realm/client designs, authentication flows, and integrations aligned to modern authentication needs (OIDC/OAuth2/SAML, SSO, identity brokering).

  • Implementing strong authentication patterns (e.g., MFA, certificate-based auth) as required for security posture.
  • Contributing to configuration-as-code practices so Keycloak configuration can be versioned, promoted, and audited.
  • Performing peer reviews, uplifting engineering standards, and supporting defect triage across authentication flows and integrations.
  • Supporting operational hardening activities (secure baseline config, logging/audit, backup/restore testing).
What we're looking for
  • 4-6+ years' experience in IAM / security engineering roles.
  • 3+ years' hands-on Keycloak experience.
  • Strong experience implementing OIDC/OAuth2 and/or SAML SSO integrations.
  • Strong troubleshooting skills across authentication flows, tokens, and federation.
