Title: Senior IAM Engineer with Integration experience

Location: phoenix AZ - Onsite only

Duration: Contract

M&A Integrations (Okta/SSO)

Key Responsibilities

M&A / Integration Delivery

• Design and implement tenant-to-tenant federation (Okta/ADFS/IdP‑initiated and SP‑initiated) and progressive consolidation to a primary IdP (Okta).
• Plan and execute SSO cutovers for top business applications; define rollback plans and success criteria.
• Establish secure B2B/B2E access patterns for acquired entities (SAML 2.0, OAuth 2.0/OIDC, SCIM).
• Orchestrate account migration strategies (just-in-time provisioning, SCIM, directory sync), and drive de‑dupe/merge identity hygiene.

IAM Engineering & Operations

• Configure and manage Okta (policies, routing rules, app integrations, Device Trust, MFA/Adaptive MFA, Groups, Lifecycle Management, Workflows).
• Implement secure federation (SAML/OIDC), token policies, consent and scopes, and PKCE where applicable.
• Integrate with Active Directory / LDAP, govern group design, and rationalize permissions to least‑privilege.
• Define and enforce password vaulting patterns for non‑federated apps and privileged identities (e.g., CyberArk/HashiCorp/1Password Enterprise).
• Build and maintain access review, joiner/mover/leaver (JML) automation, and policy-as-code where feasible.
• Partner with app owners to onboard applications to SSO/MFA and eliminate legacy/basic auth.

Required Qualifications

• Hands-on expertise with Okta (tenant administration, federation, SSO/MFA, Lifecycle Management, Workflows, SCIM, device posture).
• Strong working knowledge of SSO, federation, SAML 2.0, OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, SCIM, and secure token handling.
• Proficiency with Active Directory (domain trusts, OU/group strategy, GPO basics, identity hygiene) and directory sync concepts.
• Demonstrated M&A integration experience: discovery, Day‑1 readiness, SSO cutover, identity consolidation, and decommissioning legacy IdPs.
• Password vaulting/Privileged Access exposure (e.g., CyberArk, HashiCorp Vault, BeyondTrust, or enterprise password managers).
• Applied least‑privilege and Zero Trust design; familiarity with NIST CSF, CIS Controls, or ISO 27001 principles.
• Experience in AWS and/or Google Cloud Platform (federation, RBAC, service accounts, workload identity).
• Strong verbal and written communication; ability to interface with execs, security, app owners, and engineers.
• Scripting for automation (e.g., PowerShell, Python, Okta APIs/SDKs) and comfort with Git-based workflows.
