RESPEC is seeking an experienced Senior Identity & Access Management (IAM) Software Engineer to spearhead enterprise security modernization for our key public safety client. In this role, you will take ownership of the client's enterprise identity ecosystem, leading the transformation toward a robust, zero-trust foundation. You will architect and implement centralized authentication frameworks, modernize governance workflows, automate provisioning pipelines, and drive application onboarding across modern and legacy platforms. This is a pivotal modernization initiative directly supporting critical statewide public safety systems, ensuring that only verified, authorized personnel securely access vital resources.
In this position, you will manage the enterprise identity and access management landscape end-to-end. You will design and deploy a centralized identity provider framework utilizing SAML 2.0 and OIDC protocols to support seamless single sign-on (SSO) and robust multi-factor authentication (MFA). Working across engineering and security teams, you will establish unified role-based access control (RBAC) models, enforce strict separation of duties, and automate complex identity lifecycle workflows.
Additionally, you will drive enterprise application onboarding using modern REST APIs while taking technical ownership of our client's Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) platform powered by SailPoint Identity Security Cloud. Your day-to-day focus will include orchestrating user access reviews, designing certification campaigns, automating user provisioning and audit reporting via custom PowerShell and Python scripts, and deploying privileged access management (PAM) solutions featuring credential vaulting, automated rotation, and just-in-time access. Beyond initial deployments, you will maintain technical documentation, monitor and optimize directory and identity databases, and troubleshoot system integrations.
