  • Solid knowledge of federation platform features and functionalities, including user lifecycle management, SSO, and MFA.
  • Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills, with the ability to analyze and resolve complex federation-related issues.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams.
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to prioritize tasks in a fast-paced environment.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree with 5 years of experience OR Masters with 4 years of experience.
  • Minimum 4 years of experience with Okta, Ping Federate.
  • Advanced proficiency in PowerShell scripting for automation and management of identity systems.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to work in a fast-paced, global environment.

Preferred:

  • Certifications in relevant federation technologies (such as Okta Certified Administrator, Ping Federate / PingOne Certified, or Microsoft Entra ID) are a plus.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
