• Drive the full software development lifecycle (SDLC) for IAM solutions—from requirements to deployment.
• Partner with risk and compliance teams to ensure a cohesive, compliant, and future-ready IAM strategy.
• Communicate program vision, progress, and results to executive and technical stakeholders alike.

• Strong software development background and hands-on understanding of the development lifecycle, able to lead engineering teams and influence design and build decisions.
• Experience integrating or leveraging AI in IAM programs—such as automating identity workflows, analyzing behavioral patterns, or enhancing decision-making.
• In-depth understanding of IAM frameworks, architectures, and risk mitigation across cloud, mobile, and hybrid environments.
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to explain complex technical topics to diverse audiences.
• Demonstrated ability to build and lead high-performing teams, manage cross-functional projects, and deliver results under tight timelines.
