Directory Services Solution Specialist (REMOTE US)
Professional Services · Tampa, Florida (Remote)
Overview:
A Directory Services Implementation Specialist designs and implements directory services utilized as foundational building blocks for Identity & Access Management solutions. Typically, the work is performed remotely, but travel to a customer's site is oftentimes required. A Directory Services Implementation Specialist must be as comfortable on the whiteboard as they are with the keyboard. This means that they must be able to articulate the directory strategy recommended for a customer to adopt, guide customers on best practices surrounding directory design and integration within a larger solution, demonstrate the components and protocols leveraged by the directory service, and implement those capabilities in either proof of concept or enterprise implementations.
Identity Fusion Implementation Specialists have been working in the identity management space for nearly 20 years (dating back to the early days of Netscape Directory Service). Our experience includes IAM solutions across multiple vendors, but we have chosen to focus on implementing rock solid identity and access management solutions based on ForgeRock's award winning products.
As a thought leader in the identity and access management space, Identity Fusion works with clients across various industries including, healthcare, financial services, high-tech, manufacturing, and publishing. Each of these clients may have different goals, but they all share one thing in common – the need for a dynamic and robust infrastructure to simplify the processes associated with IAM technologies.
We are seeking bright, motivated individuals with a passion for architecting and implementing next generation identity management solutions built on the latest technologies. You will be working in a fun and dynamic environment on a variety of projects, be exposed to clients across multiple industries, collaborate within high-caliber fast paced project teams, and develop world class custom identity management solutions to meet the needs of our Fortune 500 clients.
We offer competitive salaries, full benefits, extensive training and mentorship, and performance-based incentives. You must have the ability to travel, but for the most part, work will be performed remotely.
