What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an entry-level role where I can own identity governance (JML, RBAC, access certifications), strengthen compliance with least-privilege controls, and grow into application security by building secure authentication and authorization in real environments.

I’m an IAM-focused professional with BFSI domain expertise and hands-on identity governance implementation experience. I configure Joiner-Mover-Leaver (JML) lifecycles to automate provisioning logic and enforce least-privilege access through RBAC modeling.

I’ve executed access certification campaigns and documented remediation workflows for excessive, dormant, and orphaned access to strengthen corporate compliance. I also model segregation-of-duties (SoD) expectations by simulating conflict scenarios and defining corrective action procedures aligned with audit expectations.

On implementation, I configure connector-based application onboarding to replicate enterprise provisioning integrations and run access validation checks to identify entitlement inconsistencies and privilege escalation risks. I’ve also set up identity aggregation and access review components within SailPoint IIQ and evaluated access request workflows and approval chains in Saviynt.

I’m actively expanding my technical skills into application security through foundational training (OffSec SSD-100, In Progress). With a structured governance and risk-mitigation mindset, I’m positioned for an entry-level Cybersecurity Engineer role focused on secure authentication, authorization, and access governance.
