We are seeking a senior SailPoint IdentityIQ (IIQ) L3 / Technical Expert to lead development, integration, upgrades, testing, troubleshooting, and technical governance across on-premises and cloud SailPoint platforms. This role combines hands-on engineering, L3 production support, and technical leadership of a distributed development team.

The successful candidate will translate business and security requirements into scalable IAM solutions while ensuring platform stability, security, performance, and maintainability. The role partners closely with architects, product owners, analysts, cybersecurity, infrastructure, HR, ITSM, and application teams.

Onsite presence required in Durham, North Carolina.

Required Skills & Experience

- 7+ years of hands-on SailPoint IdentityIQ (IIQ) development and IAM/identity governance experience, including complex enterprise implementations and L3 support — primary requirement
- SailPoint on-premise experience is essential; working knowledge of SailPoint Identity Security Cloud/IdentityNow, cloud connectors and APIs, and IIQ-to-cloud migration concepts, as the organization plans to move toward the cloud in the future
- Deep knowledge of IIQ architecture, object model, Java APIs, BeanShell, workflows, rules, tasks, identity lifecycle management, provisioning, aggregation, role management, access requests, and certifications
- Proven experience leading major IIQ upgrades and quarterly release cycles, including customization and connector assessment, remediation, regression testing, cutover, rollback, and post-upgrade validation
- Strong Java/J2EE, XML, JSON, JavaScript, SQL, regular expressions, API, debugging, performance optimization, and secure-coding skills
- Experience with REST/SOAP services, SCIM, JDBC, LDAP, Active Directory/Entra ID, SSO and federation, HR platforms, ServiceNow, SAP, and file-based integrations

- Sound knowledge of procedures, standards, and regulations for authorization and authentication, applied cryptography, and security vulnerabilities

- Ability to lead autonomously across global/remote teams, mentor developers, manage priorities, and solve complex problems, with reliable delivery and proactive, consistent communication
- Excellent listening, interpersonal, written, and oral communication skills; ability to bridge technical and business requirements; collaborative and comfortable engaging stakeholders rather than operating in isolation
