If you came up building workforce identity systems and are now the person other IAM engineers turn to when provisioning, lifecycle, federation, or integrations get difficult, this may be worth a conversation.

Identify Security is supporting a confidential client expanding its IAM engineering organization in South Florida.

They need a true player-coach -- someone who has personally built complex identity solutions and can now lead engineers without leaving the engineering behind.

This is not a governance-only, certification, or vendor-management role.

What Matters Most

You should have real experience across several of these areas:

• Joiner / mover / leaver lifecycle
• HR-driven provisioning and deprovisioning
• Identity correlation and authoritative sources
• Active Directory / Entra ID
• Application onboarding
• REST / SCIM / APIs / connectors
• Federation, SAML, OAuth, OIDC
• Role and entitlement management
• ServiceNow workflows
• Provisioning failures and reconciliation
• Automation / scripting
• PAM / privileged access

You do not need every product in the client’s stack.

Specific platforms can be learned.

Identity engineering judgment needs to already be there.

The Kind of Problems You Have Solved

• A new hire does not receive downstream access
• A mover event creates the wrong permissions
• A termination fails to remove access
• HR data does not correlate correctly
• A native connector cannot meet the requirement
• An integration works in test but fails in production

We want to understand what you personally designed, fixed, challenged, or implemented .

Leadership

You may already be an IAM Manager.

Or you may be a:

• Lead IAM Engineer
• Principal IAM Engineer
• IAM / Identity Architect
• Identity Platform Lead
• Technical Lead who has been mentoring engineers, reviewing designs, setting direction, and is ready for formal people leadership.

You should be comfortable:

• developing engineers
• reviewing technical designs
• challenging weak architecture
• helping solve difficult IAM problems
• building repeatable engineering patterns
• reducing vendor dependency
• communicating clearly with technical and business leaders

Environment

Experience with technologies such as Entra ID, Active Directory, Ping / ForgeRock, ServiceNow, SailPoint, Saviynt, Okta, OIM, MIM, IdentityMinder, NetIQ, or IBM Identity Manager is relevant.

Exact product match is less important than strong workforce IAM engineering fundamentals.
