Job Overview

Remote Principal Engineer of Identity Federation, Digital Trust, Behavioral Biometrics & Fraud Intelligence — Bahrain

Location: Remote, with cross-collaboration across Bahrain’s digital banking ecosystem

Seniority: Principal / Domain Authority

Employment Type: Full-Time

Role Summary

This role fortifies the digital identity trust fabric underpinning Bahrain’s fintech expansion. You will construct cryptographic verification models, behavioral biometric engines, permissioned key vaults, and risk-adaptive authentication strategies to counteract fraud escalation.

Identity Assurance Responsibilities

• Lead identity federation initiatives integrating FIDO2/WebAuthn, short-lived attestation certificates, and enclave-anchored private key materialization.

• Implement continuous authentication pipelines using gait analysis vectors, device orientation heuristics, screen pressure telemetry, and frictionless re-verification triggers.

• Develop risk lenses applying session entropy, geospatial drift scoring, and probabilistic device anomaly likelihood.

Fraud Intelligence Engineering

• Deploy stateful session fingerprinting to detect credential sharing, session hijacking, lateral pivot attempts, and velocity anomalies.

• Construct adversarial ML models to predict fraud tactic evolution and pattern-based attack surfaces exploiting supply chain weaknesses.

Secure Transaction Execution

• Engineer AEAD encryption payloads, preventing ciphertext manipulation and ensuring tamper-immunity.

• Introduce consent-bounded cryptographic policies controlling transaction replay, privilege escalation, and API signature misuse.

Zero-Trust Policy Orchestration

• Define micro-segmentation enclaves around high-privilege transaction surfaces.

• Govern just-in-time access provisioning mapped to attribute-based control policies.

Threat Modeling & Auditing

• Utilize MITRE ATT&CK correlation mapping, kill chain regression, and red-team threat simulation outputs to optimize countermeasure deployment.

• Implement immutable audit layers with cryptographic journaling applied to identity events, privilege state transitions, and revocation trails.

Preferred Qualifications

• 8+ years designing identity assurance frameworks, behavioral biometric systems, or fraud intelligence engines.

• Demonstrated excellence across cryptographic protocol implementation, threat surface minimization, and privilege governance.
