  • Troubleshoot and support: Provide expert technical support for IAM-related issues, resolving complex problems and ensuring system stability and performance

  • Share your knowledge: Contribute to the creation and maintenance of comprehensive documentation for IAM systems and processes

  • Security Mindset: A solid understanding of security best practices related to IAM, including authentication, authorization, and access control

  • Communication and Collaboration: Strong communication and interpersonal skills to collaborate with various IT teams, security personnel, and business stakeholders

We’ll be super impressed if you have experience in any of these:

  • DevOps mindset: Experience with CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code (IaC), and configuration management tools (like Ansible, Chef, or Terraform) would be a major plus, demonstrating the ability to automate and manage IAM infrastructure efficiently

  • Security certifications: Holding relevant security certifications like CISSP, CISM, or CCSP
