  Integrate Delinea with enterprise identity, endpoint, and security tooling (e.g., AD/Azure AD, SSO/MFA, SIEM, ITSM) and automate onboarding/rotation/workflows using APIs and scripting.
• Security & Compliance:
  Implement privileged access controls (least privilege, JIT/JEA, session controls, credential rotation) and produce audit-ready evidence aligned to internal standards and frameworks (e.g., SOX, PCI, ISO 27001).
• Support & Troubleshooting:
  Lead triage and resolution of PAM issues across agents, connectors, network paths, authentication flows, and platform services, performing root-cause analysis and preventive remediation.
• Documentation & Knowledge Transfer:
  Create and maintain operational runbooks, architecture diagrams, and configuration standards while training administrators and stakeholders to ensure consistent, scalable PAM operations.
• Complete all responsibilities as outlined in the annual performance review and/or goal setting.
