Mandatory Skills:
• Experience: 5+ years in identity management and infrastructure automation.
• Identity Management: Strong experience with Okta (must-have), including workflows, API integrations, and ServiceNow integrations. Familiarity with OAuth/SAML, LDAP/Active Directory.
• Infrastructure-as-Code: Deep expertise in Terraform, with full lifecycle ownership.
