• Collaborate with IT and HR for seamless identity lifecycle management
• Support Single Sign-On (SSO), Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), and Privileged Access Management (PAM) systems
• Document and maintain IAM processes, standards, and knowledge base articles
• Respond to internal access-related service requests and incidents in a timely manner
• Contribute to compliance efforts (e.g., SOX, GDPR, HIPAA) by supporting identity governance

Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in Information Technology, Cybersecurity, or related field (or equivalent experience)
• Familiarity with IAM tools such as SailPoint, Okta, Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD), or similar
• Experience with scripting and automation (e.g., PowerShell, Python) is a plus
• Strong communication and documentation skills

• High level of integrity and commitment to confidentiality
