IAM​/PAM Analyst

Insight Global is looking for an IAM/PAM Analyst for a large financial institution. Team manages privileged accounts for Unix and Database infrastructures, ensuring compliance with security policy, least privilege standards, and reviewing all provisioning requests coming from Operations teams.

They do not create accounts themselves — they validate, govern, and ensure security alignment.

• Reviewing privileged access requests for Unix and Database infrastructures.
• Validating access requests against security standards, principles, and least privilege rules.
• Supporting infrastructure components behind bank projects such as bank's AI initiatives (AI systems rely heavily on Unix + database backends).
• Ensuring that requested privileged IDs are appropriate and not over‑provisioned.
• Working as the security “gatekeeper” between Operations teams requesting access and bank's security policies.

This role requires strong understanding of infrastructure layers (Unix, DB) rather than application layer IAM.
