Your role as IAM DevOps Engineer

Your role will be to develop and operate Keycloak/RHSSO-based IAM capabilities on Kubernetes, enabling secure SSO and machine-to-machine access for internal products.

You will support team development by standardizing deployment, configuration, and troubleshooting practices, continuously improving reliability, security, and automation around the IAM platform.

Your profile

• At least 3 years of work experience as DevOps / Platform Engineer (or SRE) with hands-on Kubernetes operations in production environments.
• Solid understanding of OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect concepts for modern IAM integrations and SSO flows.​
• Practical experience with GitOps delivery using Argo CD (Git-driven continuous delivery for Kubernetes).​
• Experience working with containers (Docker) and CI/CD pipelines (e.g. GitLab) from commit to production.
• Comfortable scripting in Python and Bash for automation and troubleshooting tasks.

IAM, Keycloak & troubleshooting

• IAM fundamentals: authentication vs authorization, identity lifecycle and provisioning flows, role/permission model design, user types, and machine-to-machine concepts.
• Keycloak/RHSSO: hands-on experience with realms, clients, roles, scopes, identity providers, and themes, including troubleshooting authentication and authorization flows end-to-end.
• Configuration-as-code mindset for Keycloak: managing realms/clients/roles via versioned configuration and promoting changes across environments.
• Operability: diagnose and resolve platform issues (CPU/memory pressure, pod health, configuration errors), contribute to incident response, and support upgrades and migrations.

Cloud, DevOps & Containerization

• Kubernetes & networking: experience with deployments, services, ingress, environment-specific configuration, and secure handling of secrets/config maps.
• Packaging & delivery: Helm charts and Argo CD application management, including using Helm-based deployments through Argo CD for GitOps workflows.
• Experience in CI/CD using GitLab, including building, testing, and deploying containerized workloads.
• Infrastructure as Code (IaC) approach for managing environments and application infrastructure.
• Observability: experience with Grafana/Prometheus, ELK stack, and basic Dynatrace usage for monitoring, alerting, and troubleshooting.

Database & Persisitence Layer

• Experience with PostgreSQL in operational contexts (backups and restore, basic performance indicators, connection troubleshooting).
• General understanding of how Keycloak and IAM components rely on Postgres and what typical failure modes look like.

Security & Performance

• Experience with OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, and JWT-based authentication for Keycloak integrations.​
• Understanding of TLS/certificates and secure exposure of IAM endpoints.
• Experience using monitoring and load-testing tools (e.g. Prometheus/Grafana, JMeter) to observe performance, capacity, and stability of IAM services.

Qualifications

Would be nice to have

• Hands-on experience running Keycloak using an operator-based approach on Kubernetes/OpenShift.
• Deeper Postgres operational know-how (performance tuning, HA setups, maintenance strategies).
• Experience in cloud technologies (AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud).
• Experience in Go, Java and/or Quarkus for maintaining operators, provisioning logic, or SPI-based extensions.
• Experience of working in international projects.
• Degree in Computer Science, Mathematics or Engineering.

Technology stack:

• Keycloak / RHSSO / RHBK, OAuth2, OpenID Connect, JWT.​
• Kubernetes, Docker, Ingress, Helm, Argo CD.​
• Git, CI/CD (GitLab), GitOps.​
• Python, Bash (plus Go/Java as a plus for automation and extensions).
• Grafana, Prometheus, ELK, Dynatrace.
• PostgreSQL.
• AWS and other cloud platforms (as a plus).
