A leading technology organization is looking for a Senior SailPoint IAM Engineer to help strengthen and improve its enterprise identity and access management program. This role focuses on building and maintaining identity governance solutions using SailPoint Identity Security Cloud (ISC), APIs, SCIM, and modern DevOps practices.

This is an opportunity for an experienced IAM professional who enjoys solving complex technical challenges, building scalable solutions, and making identity management more efficient and secure. You'll help shape how employees gain access to the systems and applications they need, from onboarding and provisioning to access requests, certifications, and ongoing governance.

You'll work closely with application owners, IT, security, compliance, and business teams to develop reliable integrations, automate processes, and establish consistent access controls across the organization. The role also offers opportunities to take technical ownership, troubleshoot complex issues, mentor other team members, and continuously improve the SailPoint platform.

  • Strong experience in enterprise identity and access management, particularly Identity Governance and Administration (IGA).
  • Hands-on expertise with SailPoint Identity Security Cloud (ISC).
  • Experience with identity lifecycle management, application and source onboarding, access requests, provisioning, access certifications, workflows, and governance policies.
  • Proven experience implementing and delivering SailPoint ISC solutions in complex enterprise environments.

Desired Skills & Experience
  • Experience designing identity architectures and managing identity lifecycles, governance, provisioning, and integrations.
  • Familiarity with integrating HR systems, directories, IT service management platforms, and business applications.
  • Knowledge of access control models, including role-based access control (RBAC), attribute-based access control (ABAC), birthright access, segregation of duties, and least privilege.
  • Experience applying DevOps practices to IAM, including source control, CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and controlled deployments.
  • Understanding of identity data management, identity correlation, entitlement modeling, and policy enforcement.
  • Experience with IAM automation, API-based integrations, and scripting.
  • Familiarity with SAML, OAuth, OpenID Connect (OIDC), SCIM, LDAP, SQL, REST APIs, and Active Directory.

What You'll Be Doing
  • Design, build, and enhance identity governance solutions using SailPoint ISC.
  • Develop and maintain workflows for identity lifecycle management, access requests, provisioning, certifications, and governance.
  • Create scalable approaches for application onboarding and integration using APIs, SCIM, and modern identity standards.
  • Partner with application owners and business, IT, security, and compliance teams to onboard applications and establish consistent governance practices.
  • Design access control models that balance business needs with security requirements and least-privilege principles.
  • Apply sound engineering practices to platform development and delivery, including CI/CD, version control, automated testing, and release management.
  • Improve platform reliability through automation, monitoring, logging, configuration management, and environment separation.
  • Investigate and resolve complex identity and access issues while supporting audits and compliance requirements.
  • Provide technical guidance and mentorship to other IAM team members.
  • Support the ongoing operation of the SailPoint platform, including incident resolution, production support, upgrades, and continuous improvement.
