• Implement and operate SailPoint Identity Security Cloud (user access reviews and application integrations).
• Automate provisioning and reporting with PowerShell and Python.
• Assess IAM technologies, maintain technical documentation, and support Directory, IAM services, servers, and databases.
• Partner with security and IT on consistent IAM practice.

Required Qualifications:

• 8+ years IAM platform governance, engineering, lifecycle automation, and scripting.
• 8+ years application onboarding / integrating business apps with IAM.
• 5+ years designing RBAC, enforcing SoD, and running certification campaigns.
• 5+ years managing a centralized IdP and configuring SSO and MFA.
• 3+ years SailPoint Identity Security Cloud (implementation, access reviews, app integrations).
• 3+ years Privileged Access Management.
• 3+ years automating provisioning and reporting with PowerShell and Python.
• Must be legally authorized to work in the United States without sponsorship now or in the future.
• Ability to work on-site in Austin, TX.

Preferred Qualifications:

• 2+ years with a state government agency.
• Broader IGA / PAM platform exposure beyond SailPoint.

• Health Insurance.
• Dental Insurance.
• Vision Insurance.
• 401(k).
• 401(k) matching.
• Paid time off.
• Referral Program.
