Perform system health checks, performance tuning, patching, version upgrades, and database maintenance across non-production and production SailPoint environments.
Ensure SailPoint configurations align with DoD/Federal cybersecurity standards (STIG compliance, NIST SP 800-53 controls) and support Authority to Operate (ATO) assessments.
Serve as the senior technical escalation point for complex provisioning errors, identity synchronization bugs, connector failures, and performance bottlenecks.
