• Credential Management: Configure automated password rotation, verification, and session monitoring policies via CyberArk Central Policy Manager (CPM) and Privileged Session Manager (PSM).
• Agent Deployment: Partner with Desktop Engineering teams to package and distribute the CyberArk EPM agent globally using tools like Microsoft Intune and Jamf.
• Policy Optimization: Analyze EPM discovery logs to create just-in-time (JIT) privilege elevation rules and trusted application definitions for standard users.
• Integration & Automation: Develop PowerShell or Python scripts using CyberArk REST APIs to automate account onboarding and integrate workflows with ServiceNow.
• Incident Support: Act as the Tier 3 escalation point for troubleshooting credential rotation failures, agent communication issues, and application elevation blocks.

Required Technical Skills & Qualifications

• CyberArk Expertise: Minimum 3+ years of hands-on experience managing CyberArk PAM and EPM policy structures.
• Operating Systems: Deep technical knowledge of Windows OS architecture (UAC, Registry, Local Groups) and macOS security frameworks.
• Directory Services: Strong understanding of Active Directory, Azure AD/Entra ID, Group Policy Objects (GPOs), and LDAP.
• Endpoint Management Tools: Proven experience deploying software and configuration profiles via Microsoft Intune, SCCM, or Jamf.
• Scripting: Proficiency in PowerShell, Bash, or Python for task automation and API integration.
• Security Fundamentals: Solid grasp of enterprise network architecture, TLS/SSL certificates, SIEM integrations (e.g., Splunk), and modern IAM concepts (SAML, OIDC, MFA).

Preferred Qualifications

• Certifications: CyberArk Certified Defender, Sentry, or CDE (CyberArk Delivery Engineer). CISSP or CompTIA Security+ is a plus.
• Experience: Prior experience executing a successful global rollout of EPM or similar application whitelisting solutions.
