Description of Position

TPG has an exciting opportunity for an Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) Principal to join TPG’s Cybersecurity team. The number one focus of this role is the ground-up redesign and ongoing maturity of the firm’s IGA program. This is a hands-on, high-impact role for a senior practitioner who wants to shape an identity program rather than inherit one. TPG’s Cybersecurity team protects the firm’s applications, data, and clients across a fast-moving technology landscape. Identity is at the center of that mission — the firm’s access management platform serves as the hub connecting every business application, and getting identity governance right is foundational to everything else we do.

Principal Responsibilities

• Serve as a senior leader and subject-matter expert for the firm’s IGA program, helping to drive its strategy, roadmap, and day-to-day operation
• Play a key role in the ground-up redesign of TPG’s IGA program — partnering with our third-party advisory firm to reimagine identity tools, processes, and governance, and ensuring the resulting design reflects TPG’s business requirement
• Lead the implementation or migration effort for the selected IGA platform, including solution design, configuration, application onboarding, connector and integration development, and cutover planning
• Design and operate core IGA processes — joiner/mover/leaver lifecycle management, access requests and approvals, access certifications and reviews, role-based access control and role mining, segregation of duties, and governance of privileged access
