Location: Remote
Start Date: ASAP
Our client is seeking a senior, hands-on Saviynt engineer to step into an active Saviynt Enterprise Identity Cloud (EIC) implementation. This person will assess the current state, remediate existing work, and drive the program to completion.
This is a builder role. The client needs someone who will configure, troubleshoot, and deliver directly, not just provide architectural guidance. Immediate priorities are stabilizing access certifications and accelerating the onboarding of the client’s SaaS application portfolio.
For the right candidate, this role converts to a full-time position as a core owner of the client’s identity governance program.

- Stabilize and run access certification campaigns, including quarterly SOX user access reviews
- Onboard and integrate SaaS applications into Saviynt, working toward a portfolio of 30 to 40 apps
Ongoing
- Configure and maintain Saviynt connectors for SaaS applications, including Jira
- Integrate Saviynt with Azure / Entra ID and manage RBAC models

- Manage identity lifecycles for both employees and non-employees/contractors
- Partner with IT, Security, Compliance, and application owners to gather requirements and drive adoption
- Document configurations, processes, and runbooks to keep the program sustainable
- Support internal and external audits with certification evidence and reporting
Required
- 5+ years in Identity and Access Management, with at least 3 years of hands-on Saviynt EIC implementation and configuration
- Experience taking over and remediating an existing Saviynt implementation, not just greenfield deployments
- Strong background designing and running access certifications, including SOX quarterly reviews
- Proven track record onboarding a large number of SaaS applications into Saviynt
- Hands-on experience with Saviynt SaaS connectors, including Jira
- Strong Azure / Entra ID integration and RBAC experience
- Experience configuring workflows, entitlements, roles, and approvals in Saviynt
- Experience managing employee and non-employee/contractor identity lifecycles
- Comfortable owning problems end to end and working independently in a fast-moving environment
Nice to Have
- Saviynt certifications (e.g., Saviynt Certified IGA Professional)
- Experience with HRIS integrations (e.g., Workday) as an authoritative identity source
- Familiarity with REST APIs, JSON, and scripting for custom connector work
- Experience in environments with SOX compliance requirements
