IAM Cyber Architect

Cybersecurity Architect – Identity & Access Management

Multiple Fiserv locations | Cyber Architecture Team

Calling all innovators – find your future at Fiserv.

We're Fiserv, a global leader in Fintech and payments, and we move money and information in a way that moves the world. We connect financial institutions, corporations, merchants, and consumers to one another millions of times a day – quickly, reliably, and securely. Any time you swipe your credit card, pay through a mobile app, or withdraw money from the bank, we're involved. If you want to make an impact on a global scale, come make a difference at Fiserv.

Most IAM architect roles are about implementing identity solutions. This one is different. Every cybersecurity initiative at Fiserv passes through architecture, and our team is small, selective, and highly influential by design – which means every architect has a real voice in how security is shaped for the entire company. As our Cybersecurity Architect for Identity & Access Management, you won't be one of dozens of architects; you'll be one of a select few setting the security standards, patterns, and long-term roadmap for a company that processes millions of transactions a day.

The focus is identity, but the work reaches well beyond it – Zero Trust, cloud security across AWS, Azure, and GCP, workforce and customer identity, and the fast-moving world of AI security. You'll work alongside a tight-knit group of specialists across identity, network, cloud, and AI, and you'll bring real-world architectural judgment – not just theory – to some of the most consequential security decisions in fintech. If you've come up through engineering or analyst roles, know how things actually work in production, and want your decisions to shape strategy rather than just execute it, this is the seat.
