Work History
SailPoint Identity Security Cloud (ISC) Developer
Quarterhill
10.2022 - Current
- Designed and deployed JML automation in ISC across Workday (HR events), Azure AD (directory), and ServiceNow (ITSM workflows), enabling real-time provisioning/deprovisioning and consistent handling of transfers and contractor offboarding.
- Onboarded Workday, SAP S/4HANA, ServiceNow, Azure AD, Salesforce into ISC via REST/SCIM with custom schemas, correlation rules, transforms, and out-of-box policy enforcement to standardize governance across corporate and field operations.
- Implemented RBAC/ABAC models using Access Profiles, attribute transforms, and policy filters (department, region, job code), simplifying request/approval chains and streamlining certification review scope.
- Built compliance dashboards and automated access certification campaigns for privileged and finance-adjacent systems; integrated revocation workflows and escalations to reduce stale access and SoD exceptions.
- Tuned connector performance and aggregation stability (delta aggregation, batch sizing, parallelism); integrated ISC logging with Splunk for proactive alerting on outbox delays, correlation gaps, and provisioning retries.
- Extended ServiceNow access request and approval flows into ISC and mapped identity events to Salesforce role assignments for customer-facing teams; standardized Linux service account governance via policy-based rules.
- Technical environment: SailPoint ISC, Workday, SAP S/4HANA, ServiceNow, Azure AD, Salesforce, Linux, Splunk
SailPoint IdentityNow (IDN) Developer
Motorola Solutions
04.2019 - 10.2022
- Integrated IdentityNow with Workday, AD/Azure AD, ServiceNow, Salesforce, and selected public-safety/internal platforms to centralize access governance for corporate users, call-center operations, field technicians, and support engineering.
- Developed lifecycle workflows, transforms, and Access Profiles to handle complex attributes between Workday and Azure AD; reduced identity mismatches and manual remediation by standardizing correlation rules and naming conventions.
- Implemented targeted certification campaigns for high-risk roles and sensitive systems; aligned review policies and scope with SOX and internal audit controls for newsroom/data platforms and field ops.
- Built policy-based RBAC for corporate and operations teams; enforced SoD constraints across finance, IT, and ops workloads while keeping request experience simple for managers.
- Enhanced overall platform reliability by tuning aggregation schedules, improving connector retries, and implementing Splunk dashboards for connector health and provisioning exception monitoring.

SailPoint IdentityIQ (IIQ) Developer
Microsoft
09.2017 - 04.2019
- Customized IIQ with BeanShell rules, lifecycle workflows, and approval chains; improved consistency of provisioning and entitlement assignment across engineering and enterprise systems.
- Integrated IIQ with Active Directory, Workday, ServiceNow, and internal tools via REST/JDBC; standardized entitlement schemas and correlation logic to reduce drift and duplicate identities.
- Launched certification campaigns for privileged roles and sensitive applications; aligned access attestations with internal audit requirements and Zero Trust guardrails.
- Improved aggregation quality and reconciliation accuracy by refining account match rules, entitlement normalization, and error-handling/reporting.
- Technical environment: SailPoint IIQ, AD, Workday, ServiceNow, internal engineering systems, REST/JDBC, BeanShell
