Our mission is to build the future of consulting—where exceptional talent thrives, careers accelerate, and lean, high-performing teams drive real impact.

If you're passionate about technology and want more than just a seat in a massive corporate machine, we'd love for you to be part of our journey.

Your Role

We are looking for an experienced Senior Software Engineer with expertise in SailPoint IdentityIQ (IIQ) and/or Identity Security Cloud (ISC) to lead the design and development of complex identity and access management (IAM) solutions. As a senior team member, you will be responsible for designing, implementing, and optimizing advanced IIQ integrations while mentoring junior developers and driving best practices.

This is an exciting opportunity to work on high-impact projects for enterprise-level clients, leveraging your expertise to deliver scalable and secure IAM solutions.

Key Responsibilities

Technical Leadership:

• Help design and implement advanced SailPoint solutions in large enterprise environments.
• Lead technical work-streams with the development of custom workflows, connectors, and processes.
• Set coding standards, review code, and ensure adherence to best practices.

Development and Optimization:

• Develop and maintain SailPoint configurations, rules, and API integrations.
• Optimize performance and scalability of IdentityIQ components.
• Lead initiatives to automate IAM tasks using scripting and DevOps tools.

Project Management:

• Work closely with technology consultants, project managers, business stakeholders, and security teams to define project goals and deliverables.
• Serve as a technical advisor for clients, providing innovative IAM solutions tailored to business needs.
• Oversee the successful deployment and testing of IdentityIQ implementations.

Mentorship and Collaboration:

• Mentor junior developers and guide them in complex technical problem-solving.
• Foster a collaborative environment, ensuring knowledge sharing across the team.
• Provide training and documentation to internal teams and client stakeholders.

Qualifications

Required:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• 5+ years of hands-on experience with SailPoint development and integration.
• Strong proficiency in Java, with experience in API development and system integrations (REST/SOAP).
• Deep understanding of IAM concepts, including role-based access control (RBAC), provisioning, and governance.
• Extensive experience with relational databases (e.g., Oracle, SQL Server) and LDAP directories.
• Proven ability to troubleshoot complex technical issues in enterprise environments.

Preferred:

• SailPoint certifications (e.g., Certified IdentityIQ Engineer).
• Experience with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure) and integrating IdentityIQ with SaaS applications.
• Familiarity with DevOps tools and CI/CD pipelines.
• Knowledge of compliance and security standards (e.g., SOX, HIPAA, GDPR).
• Prior experience in a senior or lead developer role.
• Ownership and Autonomy: Outside of client deliverables, you are in charge of your time at Palyrian - join an internal initiative or start your own
• World-Class Team: We are a team of visionaries and leaders. We believe in hard work and teamwork. We hail from the best companies/universities and hold our work at the highest standards
• Reshaping and Reimagining an Industry: We believe the technology consulting landscape is ready for a shakeup. Help us create the vision for the future of this industry.
