Strong understanding of IAM architecture, operations, and security practices

Important Notes for Candidates<\/b>
<\/h3>
This is not<\/b> a hands -off role—advisory -only profiles won’t be a fit. You must have real Java development experience<\/b> building IAM integrations (preferably custom SailPoint connectors), and be able to speak to it in -depth during interviews. Consultants without hands -on coding experience will not move forward.
