  • Recommend and implement new controls and security measures to ensure the long-term sustainability and security of IAM environments.
  • Prepare client stakeholders for audit reviews by reviewing evidence of IAM processes, controls, and documentation that are in compliance with regulatory and industry standards.
  • Collaborate closely with the internal product development team to provide insights, feedback, and requirements for new enhancements to the SPHEREboard product suite.
