Requirements:

• 3+ years of experience in IT Security, IAM, DevSecOps, or similar roles
• Strong knowledge of identity and access management systems (e.g. 1Password, Okta, Azure AD, Google Workspace)
• Hands-on experience with network security (VPN, DNS filtering, firewalls)

• Experience with automation and scripting (Python / JavaScript or similar)
• Solid understanding of Linux and Microsoft environments
• Familiarity with SSO, OAuth, SAML
