  • Hands-on expertise with Entra ID and Active Directory (preferably in a hybrid environment) with respect to identity and access
  • Solid grasp of onboarding/off-boarding standards and lifecycle workflows
  • Scripting proficiency (PowerShell)
  • Working knowledge of security/compliance frameworks - ISO 27001, FedRAMP, GDPR, HIPAA
  • Experience with SSO, MFA, and PAM tooling
  • Strong problem-solving skills and the communication chops to work across IT, Security, and business teams
