• Hands‑on experience with IAM tools such as Entra  (Azure AD), SailPoint, Saviynt, Cyber Ark, Ping Identity, Okta, or similar.
• Experience with API‑based integrations and identity data flows (REST APIs, JSON, SCIM).
• Familiarity with scripting or automation (Python, SQL, or similar) to support integrations and data analysis.
• Understanding of non‑human identities (service accounts, APIs, workloads, AI agents) and their role in modern IAM environments.
• Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills.
• Strong communication skills and ability to work directly with clients and technical teams.

• Experience supporting IAM implementations, onboarding efforts, or platform integrations.
• Experience in regulated industries (financial services, healthcare, government).
