• Design, build and deploy agentic AI solutions (e.g., a role-mining agent) that analyze access patterns, recommend least privilege role assignments and automate periodic access certification
• Integrate IAM systems with adjacent technologies (endpoint management, security operations, ITSM, directory services) to support end-to-end identity lifecycle management
• Monitor and report on identity-related security anomalies and support incident response and remediation for identity-based threats
• Support audit readiness by producing and maintaining documentation of IAM design, controls, and automation
• Create, publish and communicate knowledgebase articles and standard operating procedures for IAM processes
• Act as a mentor to junior engineers and operations teams on IAM for best practices, secure coding and responsible use of AI-driven automation

• Experience with identity protocols and standards (SAML, OAuth/OIDC, SCIM) and identity governance/compliance frameworks
• Working knowledge of Generative AI and agentic AI concepts (LLM integration, tool/function calling, retrieval‑augmented generation) as applied to identity and security operations
• Ability to write clear technical documentation

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience building or contributing to an internal AI agent/Center of Excellence pod, including agent design and application lifecycle management (ALM) practices
