Shape the digital identity of tomorrow with us
You want to make a real technological impact at a globally operating chemical company? At Covestro, we combine a drive for innovation with a clear commitment to sustainability – and we're looking for people who embody both.
As a Microsoft Active Directory Architect (m/f/d) in our
Identity and Access Management
team, you will play a key role in advancing our digital identity infrastructure. You will shape how Covestro accesses its systems securely and efficiently across the globe – with real creative latitude, direct collaboration with leadership bodies and global partners, and an environment that values technical depth just as much as out-of-the-box thinking.
In addition to our diverse benefits, a full-time position comes with an attractive starting salary between
€89,400/year and €108,500/year
plus a variable component. The starting salary is based on your qualifications and professional experience.
What awaits you in this role:
You develop strategy, technical design and architectural guidelines for our company-wide IAM and Active Directory environment
Together with your IAM colleagues, you drive the transformation to modern identity and directory technologies – including shared ownership of relevant roadmap workstreams and regular communication of status and progress
Identifying innovative technology solutions that reduce costs, increase efficiency and minimise risks is equally part of your responsibilities
You support engineering and operations teams through targeted expert guidance during the implementation of developed solutions
In close collaboration with Audit, Risk, Compliance and Security teams, you address open items and consistently prioritise necessary remediation measures
Through presentations, workshops and the creation of content, you actively contribute to knowledge sharing around IAM standards and best practices
What you bring to the table:
A completed university degree in information technology as well as deep expertise in Microsoft Active Directory, DNS and relevant Microsoft technologies
Strong expertise in integrating on-premises AD with cloud environments such as MS Entra ID for hybrid identity management
Proficiency in PowerShell or comparable scripting languages for automation and audit queries
Experience with multi-factor authentication, privileged account management and ideally IT/OT architectures – preferably from the chemical industry
Relevant certifications (Identity and Access Administrator, CISSP or CISM) are a clear advantage
Strong communication and influencing skills as well as the ability to independently learn new technologies and act in a solution-oriented manner under pressure
Good German language skills and fluent English, both written and spoken
