Role Overview
We are seeking a Principal Engineer – Identity Governance & Administration (IGA) to serve as the technical authority and owner for enterprise-wide identity governance capabilities. This role is responsible for defining and evolving the governance, lifecycle, and policy layer that protects company intellectual property, enforces least privilege, and enables Zero Trust at scale.
This is a deeply technical, hands-on principal role with end-to-end accountability—from IGA platform evaluation and selection to governance model design, integration engineering, and long-term roadmap ownership. The ideal candidate brings expert-level experience with SailPoint, Saviynt, or equivalent enterprise IGA platforms, combined with robust systems thinking and the ability to design durable governance solutions in complex, global settings.
IGA is a Tier-0 security capability. Weak governance leads directly to over-privileged access, toxic combinations, audit failures, and elevated breach impact. This role ensures access is intentional, justified, reviewable,



and continuously governed—across humans, machines, and AI-driven identities.
