The mission of TikTok's Global Security Organization is to build and earn trust by reducing risk and securing our businesses and products. Also known as "GSO", this team is the foundation of our efforts to keep TikTok safe, secure, and operating at scale for over 1 billion people around the world. We work to ensure that the TikTok platform is safe and secure, that our users' experience and their data remain safe from external or internal threats, and that we comply with global regulations wherever TikTok operates.

Trust is one of TikTok's biggest initiatives, and security is integral to our success. In whatever ways users interact with us — whether they're watching videos on their For You page, interacting with a Live video, or buying products on TikTok Shop — GSO protects their data and privacy, so they can have a secure and trustworthy experience.

The IAM Operation & Validation team is part of the Global Security Organization (GSO), focused on protecting the organization by ensuring that the right identities have the right access to the right resources under the right conditions. Our mission is to strengthen identity and access security through effective governance, reliable security operations, and independent control validation. We develop and evolve IAM governance frameworks and security controls, identify and assess identity and access risks, validate whether controls are designed and operating effectively, and drive remediation and continuous improvement across the organization.
Our work spans the identity and access lifecycle and increasingly extends beyond traditional human identities to service accounts, machine and workload identities, and emerging agentic identities. We partner closely with engineering, security, privacy, compliance, and business teams to address complex IAM risks and build scalable, risk-based governance and assurance capabilities.
Joining the IAM Operation & Validation team means working at the intersection of security, technology, governance, and risk. You will have the opportunity to solve complex identity security challenges in a large-scale global environment and help shape the next generation of IAM governance, validation, and security capabilities.
