  • Experience designing and deploying IAM solutions using platforms like SailPoint, BeyondTrust, and Entra ID (Azure AD).
  • Strong knowledge of authentication/authorization standards (SAML, OAuth 2.0, OIDC) and Zero Trust concepts.
  • Hands-on experience with Entra ID (hybrid, Conditional Access), AWS Identity Center, and GCP IAM.
  • Proficiency in SQL, PowerShell/Python, REST APIs, and automation/integration patterns (JML lifecycle).
  • Experience with DevOps/CI-CD tools (e.g., Jenkins, Ansible), IaC (Terraform), and service platforms (ServiceNow).
