What You’ll Do

Coordinate periodic access certification campaigns and audits across key directory services and SaaS platforms.
Collaborate with business owners to define role-based access controls (RBAC) and approval hierarchies during application onboarding.
Analyze joiner-mover-leaver (JML) workflows to maintain data hygiene and ensure access remains aligned with current organizational structures.
Provide oversight for privileged account management to verify documented approval and ongoing business necessity for administrative access.
Develop governance standards for non-human identities and AI agents to ensure visibility and adherence to security policies.
Translate governance policies into actionable technical requirements for integration with identity automation and internal platforms.
Act as a primary point of contact for internal and external auditors to support compliance reporting and control validation.
Develop and maintain governance metrics and reporting - including certification completion rates, orphaned account tracking, and separation-of-duties violation monitoring - to measure program effectiveness.

Who You Are

Professional experience in identity governance, risk, or compliance within an enterprise environment.
Hands-on experience with identity governance platforms such as SailPoint, Okta Identity Governance, Saviynt, or similar IGA solutions, including access certifications, role management, and lifecycle policy configuration.
Experience supporting compliance frameworks such as PCI DSS v4, ISO 27001, ISO 27002 or SOC 2, including evidence collection and control validation for internal and external audits.
Strong understanding of identity lifecycles, least-privilege principles, and RBAC frameworks.
Proven track record of managing data-driven audit and remediation projects independently.
Analytical mindset focused on identifying process improvements and implementing scalable governance solutions.
Collaborative team player who thrives on solving complex identity challenges.
Strong communication skills with the ability to translate governance requirements for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Experience in financial services, payments, or fintech is a plus.
