Position Summary

The Identity Management Specialist is responsible for designing, implementing, and operating the firm’s identity and access management (IAM) program across on-premises and cloud environments — with a strong emphasis on Microsoft Entra ID and hybrid identity architectures. This role administers the full identity lifecycle — joiner, mover, leaver (JML) - enforces least-privilege access, automates provisioning and governance, and ensures that every user, service account, and privileged identity is provisioned, reviewed, and deprovisioned in a controlled, auditable manner across both on-premises Active Directory and the Entra ID cloud.

Key Responsibilities

Identity Lifecycle Management

• Operate and enhance the JML (Joiner / Mover / Leaver) process across Active Directory, Entra ID, Exchange, M365, and downstream business applications.
• Automate provisioning, role changes, and deprovisioning through identity management solutions (One Identity Manager, ServiceNow, ManageEngine ADManager Plus, Cayosoft Administrator or others).
• Manage Active Directory and Entra ID objects (users, groups, OUs, contacts, mail-enabled objects) at scale using identity management solutions.

Hybrid Identity & Directory Operations

• Design, operate, and troubleshoot hybrid identity across on-premises Active Directory and Microsoft Entra ID — including Entra Connect / Connect Sync / Cloud Sync, password hash sync (PHS), pass-through authentication (PTA), federation (AD FS), and seamless SSO.
• Administer multi-domain / multi-forest Active Directory, Entra ID tenants, and B2B/B2C scenarios.
• Manage Conditional Access, Entra ID Protection, Privileged Identity Management (PIM), Access Reviews, and Entra ID Governance.
• Maintain hybrid object flow, attribute mapping, filtering, and writeback (group, device, password writeback).

Access Governance & Reviews

• Design and execute periodic access certification campaigns (One Identity Manager / ServiceNow Access Reviews / Entra ID Access Reviews) for high-risk applications, shared mailboxes, distribution lists, and privileged groups.
• Maintain role-based access control (RBAC) models, entitlement catalogs, and segregation of duties (SoD) policies.
• Investigate and remediate orphaned accounts, stale entitlements, and policy violations.

Service Request & Workflow Automation

• Own the IAM request catalog in ServiceNow — new accounts, group membership changes, application access, privileged access, and terminations.
• Build and maintain ServiceNow workflows, IntegrationHub / Flow Designer flows, and approval routings that connect HRIS, ITSM, and identity systems.
• Implement self-service password reset, MFA enrollment, and account unlock through Entra ID SSPR.

Privileged Account Operations

• Administer privileged and service accounts across AD and Entra ID; integrate with PAM solutions where applicable.
• Use privilege accounts password management solution for delegated administration, change auditing, AD recovery, and Entra ID tenant management.

Monitoring, Compliance & Reporting

• Monitor identity-related alerts, sign-in risk events, and Conditional Access policy enforcement.
• Produce metrics and reports for audit, risk, and leadership — provisioning SLAs, access review completion, dormant accounts, privileged access usage.
• Support compliance evidence collection for SOC 2, ISO 27001, NYDFS Part 500, GDPR, and client security questionnaires.

Collaboration & Documentation

• Partner with HR, Security, Infrastructure, and Application owners on onboarding/offboarding and role design.
• Maintain runbooks, SOPs, integration designs, and architecture diagrams for the IAM platform.
• Provide L3 support and mentor L1/L2 service desk staff on identity issues.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or related field (equivalent experience accepted).
• 5+ years of hands-on Identity and Access Management experience across hybrid Microsoft environments (Active Directory + Entra ID / Azure AD).
• Strong working knowledge of Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) and hybrid identity models — including Entra Connect / Connect Sync / Cloud Sync, password hash sync, pass-through authentication, federation (AD FS), seamless SSO, Conditional Access, MFA, Entra ID Protection, Privileged Identity Management (PIM), Access Reviews, Entra ID Governance, and Enterprise Application SSO/provisioning.

Deep, demonstrable experience with the following IAM/IGA toolset:

• One Identity Manager (OneIM) — connectors, synchronization projects, attestation/access reviews, custom workflows, IT Shop, role and entitlement modeling, and PowerShell/SQL customization.
• ServiceNow — IAM service catalog, workflow / Flow Designer, IntegrationHub, ITSM integration with identity systems, and ideally ServiceNow Identity Governance & Administration (SN-IGA) or HR Service Delivery integrations.
• ManageEngine ADManager Plus — bulk AD/Entra ID administration, automation policies, custom reports, self-service password reset/MFA, and delegation.
• Cayosoft Administrator and Cayosoft Guardian — hybrid AD/Entra ID administration, change monitoring, AD object recovery, and tenant management.
• Solid understanding of Active Directory, Group Policy, Kerberos, LDAP, SAML, OAuth 2.0, OIDC, and SCIM.
• Scripting and automation proficiency in PowerShell (AD, Exchange Online, Microsoft Graph, Entra ID / MSOnline / AzureAD modules); familiarity with REST APIs and JSON.
• Solid understanding of RBAC, ABAC, least privilege, segregation of duties, and identity lifecycle controls.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience integrating IAM with HRIS platforms (Workday) as authoritative source for JML.
• Exposure to additional IAM/IGA/PAM platforms (SailPoint IdentityIQ / OneIdentity. Saviynt, CyberArk, BeyondTrust, Delinea, Microsoft Entra ID Governance).
• Experience with SaaS provisioning via SCIM and Entra ID Enterprise Applications.
• Industry certifications: SC-300 (Microsoft Identity and Access Administrator), One Identity Manager certifications, ServiceNow CIS-ITSM / CIS-SecOps, CISSP, CIAM, or equivalent.

• Continuous learning in a rapidly evolving IAM landscape
