Required Qualifications: • 8+ years IAM platform governance, engineering, lifecycle automation, and scripting. • 8+ years application onboarding / integrating business apps with IAM. • 5+ years designing RBAC, enforcing SoD, and running certification campaigns. • 5+ years managing a centralized IdP and configuring SSO and MFA. • 3+ years SailPoint Identity Security Cloud (implementation, access reviews, app integrations). • 3+ years Privileged Access Management. • 3+ years automating provisioning and reporting with PowerShell and Python. • Must be legally authorized to work in the United States without sponsorship now or in the future. • Ability to work on-site in Austin, TX. Preferred Qualifications: • 2+ years with a state government agency. • Broader IGA / PAM platform exposure beyond SailPoint. Benefits: • Health Insurance. • Dental Insurance. • Vision Insurance. • 401(k). • 401(k) matching. • Paid time off. • Referral Program. About ZipStaff ZipStaff partners with leading organizations to connect skilled technology professionals with high-impact contract opportunities. We focus on quality matches, clear communication, and long-term success for candidates and clients. To apply, submit your resume highlighting SailPoint Identity Security Cloud, SSO/MFA/RBAC work you owned, and PowerShell/Python automation. Pay: $60 - $62 per hour
