  • Partner with the Security and Compliance teams to align IAM controls with regulatory requirements. 
  • Drive automation-first IAM practices leveraging Terraform for infrastructure-as-code patterns, APIs across Okta, Saviynt, and enterprise SaaS platforms and Python or similar scripting for automation where applicable. 
  • Reduce manual processes through standardization and system-driven workflows. 
  • Lead and develop a well-managed IAM team, including direct oversight of engineers. 
  • Provide hands-on technical guidance and prioritization. 
  • Act as a player-coach, ensuring strong delivery while scaling the function. 
  • Serve as the primary IAM partner to the Security, Compliance, and Business teams. 
  • Drive the adoption of least privilege access models and governance standards. 
  • Communicate IAM strategy and decisions clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

  • Bachelor’s degree in computer science, information technology, or in a related field (or equivalent experience) 
  • Proven experience owning, operating and building IAM programs 
  • Hands-on experience with Okta (SSO, MFA, lifecycle management, SCIM), Saviynt or a comparable IGA platform (i.e. SailPoint) 
  • Strong understanding of identity lifecycle management (JML processes), role-based and attribute-based access control models and access governance and certification frameworks 
  • Terraform or similar infrastructure-as-code tools is preferred

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, and you voluntarily decide to complete this survey, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. We request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded.
