Responsibilities
Lead the strategic design, security hardening, and operational excellence of enterprise Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) environments
Implement Informatica's "Defense-in-Depth" security methodology across every layer of the technology stack
Drive the transformation of integration operations from manual, ad-hoc processes to fully automated, CI/CD-enabled delivery pipelines
Secure production Informatica environments against real-world threats, with hands-on expertise in vulnerability remediation using modern CNAPP/CSPM platforms
Elevate Integration Competency Center (ICC) maturity from foundational levels toward self-service excellence, establishing governance frameworks that balance developer velocity with enterprise security requirements
Demonstrate expertise implementing Informatica's Defense-in-Depth security model across network, platform, application, metadata, and transport layers
Conduct security remediation programs using CNAPP platforms such as Wiz, Orca, or Prisma Cloud, with proven ability to prioritize vulnerabilities based on attack path analysis, network exposure, and data sensitivity context
Implement Git-based source control for Informatica assets using export/import workflows integrated with GitHub, GitLab, or Azure DevOps repositories
Design and implement CI/CD pipelines for Informatica deployments using Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or Azure Pipelines—automating the build, test, and promotion of integration assets across dev/test/prod environments
Qualification
Required
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or related field (Master's preferred)
10+ years in enterprise integration architecture, with 5+ years focused on Informatica platforms
5+ years hands-on experience with cloud security architecture and implementation
Demonstrated experience leading security remediation programs with measurable outcomes
Strong communication skills with ability to translate technical security concepts for executive stakeholders
7+ years hands-on experience with Informatica platforms, including deep expertise in Cloud Application Integration (CAI), Cloud Data Integration (CDI), Cloud Integration Hub (CIH), and Cloud Mass Ingestion services
Expert-level IDMC administration including user provisioning, RBAC configuration, sub-organization management, delegated administration, and license optimization across parent/child org structures
Proven migration experience transitioning from legacy PowerCenter on-premise environments to cloud-native IDMC, including metadata migration, connection reconfiguration, and runtime modernization
Experience implementing SAML 2.0 SSO integration with enterprise identity providers (Okta, Azure AD, ADFS) and configuring OAuth 2.0 token-based service authentication
Understanding of IDMC microservices architecture, multi-tenant metadata repository design, and tenant-specific encryption key management
Deep expertise in AWS and/or Azure cloud platforms (both strongly preferred), including VPC/VNet architecture, IAM, Security Groups, and network security design
Hands-on experience deploying Secure Agents in hybrid configurations: customer-managed on-premise, cloud VPC, and Informatica-hosted runtime environments
Implementation experience with AWS PrivateLink and Azure Private Link to establish private connectivity between customer VPCs and Informatica Cloud without public internet exposure
Understanding of Informatica pod placement strategies, regional data residency requirements, and disaster recovery failover between primary and DR regions
Experience with Cloud Data Integration Elastic (CDI-E) including Kubernetes cluster configuration, Spark serverless execution, and advanced cluster management
Demonstrated expertise implementing Informatica's Defense-in-Depth security model across network, platform, application, metadata, and transport layers
Hands-on experience hardening Secure Agent deployments including fingerprint authentication, TLS 1.2 enforcement, IP allow-listing, and proxy configuration
Verified project experience conducting security remediation programs using CNAPP platforms such as Wiz, Orca, or Prisma Cloud—with proven ability to prioritize vulnerabilities based on attack path analysis, network exposure, and data sensitivity context
Experience with EDR/XDR technologies for real-time threat detection and response across cloud infrastructure, including integration with Informatica SOC workflows
Knowledge of secrets management integration patterns using HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, or Azure Key Vault for credential storage and rotation
Understanding of SOC 1 Type II, SOC 2 Type II compliance requirements and experience supporting audit evidence collection for Informatica environments
Expert proficiency with Terraform for provisioning cloud infrastructure, including modules for VPC networking, compute instances, security groups, and IAM roles supporting Secure Agent deployment
Experience with AWS CloudFormation and/or Azure Resource Manager templates for infrastructure provisioning with security policy enforcement
Demonstrated ability to containerize Secure Agent deployments using Docker, treating agents as ephemeral "cattle" rather than "pets"—with automated recovery via orchestration platforms like AWS ECS or Kubernetes
Implementation experience with persistent storage solutions (AWS EFS, Azure Files) for Secure Agent configuration and log externalization
Proficiency integrating IaC security scanning tools (Wiz, Checkov, tfsec) into CI/CD pipelines to prevent misconfigurations before deployment
Proven track record advancing Integration Competency Centers through maturity levels—from ad-hoc "Best Practices" documentation toward "Central Services" or "Self-Service" operational models
Experience implementing Git-based source control for Informatica assets using export/import workflows integrated with GitHub, GitLab, or Azure DevOps repositories
Ability to design and implement CI/CD pipelines for Informatica deployments using Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or Azure Pipelines—automating the build, test, and promotion of integration assets across dev/test/prod environments
Experience leveraging Informatica's Data Integration Service REST API and infacmd command-line tools for automated deployment orchestration
