What I'm looking for

I am seeking a cybersecurity or IAM role where I can lead SailPoint and cloud security initiatives, drive automation (Terraform/CI-CD), and deliver scalable identity solutions with strong compliance and data protection.

I am a Cybersecurity IAM Engineer with 5+ years of enterprise experience focused on identity governance, SailPoint implementations, and cloud security architecture.

I have designed and deployed SailPoint IdentityIQ and IdentityNow solutions, implemented RBAC/ABAC, lifecycle automation, and integrated IAM with Azure AD, AWS IAM, GCP and enterprise applications to support Zero Trust architectures.

My work has included role mining and entitlement analysis for 10K+ identities, automated provisioning with Terraform and CI/CD (reducing onboarding/offboarding time by ~40%), and building compliance dashboards in Power BI and Tableau to visualize access activity and audit trails.

I have led data platform modernization and secure migrations across Oracle, SQL Server, Teradata, Snowflake and PostgreSQL, implemented data masking/encryption, and built event-driven ingestion pipelines using Kafka, Azure Event Hubs and Databricks with Unity Catalog and RBAC.
