    Strong engineering background with hands-on experience in building and deploying IAM solutions.

    Proficiency with AWS services and IAM integrations in cloud environments.

    In-depth understanding of IAM principles, including authentication, authorization, single sign-on (SSO), multi-factor authentication (MFA), and directory services.
