Working closely with security architects, systems administrators, and application owners, the SailPoint Engineer ensures seamless integration, compliance automation, and robust operational resilience.
- Design, configure, deploy, and maintain SailPoint Identity IQ (IIQ) or SailPoint Identity Security Cloud platforms. Develop custom workflows, rules, forms, policies, and Beanshell/Java scripts.
- Integrate enterprise applications, databases, directories (Active Directory, Entra , LDAP), and cloud services with SailPoint using out-of-the-box and custom web services/REST APIs/SCIM connectors.
- Build and maintain automated provisioning and de-provisioning processes for Joiner, Mover, and Leaver (JML) events across hybrid infrastructures.
- Configure and manage periodic access certification campaigns, entitlement catalog structures, and Separation of Duties (SoD) enforcement policies.
- Support the design, implementation, and maintenance of Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) models to reduce over-privileged user access.
- Perform system health checks, performance tuning, patching, version upgrades, and database maintenance across non-production and production SailPoint environments.
- Ensure SailPoint configurations align with DoD/Federal cybersecurity standards (STIG compliance, NIST SP 800-53 controls) and support Authority to Operate (ATO) assessments.

- Active CompTIA Security+ CE certification (or higher DoD 8570/8140 IAT Level II compliant certification, such as CYSA+, GSEC, or CISSP).
- Superior analytical, troubleshooting, and collaboration skills, with a proven history of managing complex technical deliverables independently.
- Advanced capability in developing Java, Bean Shell, and XML components within the SailPoint Identity IQ framework.
- Demonstrated experience building RESTful APIs, SCIM interfaces, JDBC connectors, and custom application integrations.
- Deep understanding of core identity protocols and directories: SAML 2.0, OAuth, OIDC, Active Directory, LDAP, and PKI/CAC/PIV integrations.
- Solid working knowledge of relational database management systems (Oracle, SQL Server, PostgreSQL) and SQL query writing.
- Direct experience implementing SailPoint solutions within Federal/DoD ICAM programs or Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) environments.
- Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform) and containerized application deployments.
- Familiarity with Dev Sec Ops , automated CI/CD deployment pipelines, and version control systems (Git).
