We welcome candidates of all backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. Position Overview: We're seeking a Senior IAM Manager to own identity and access management across the full breadth of HealthEdge's business — corporate identities, non-human identities, infrastructure-as-code-driven provisioning, and customer identity and access management (CIAM) — with ownership of multiple IDP instances across the organization. This is a leadership role with 5–7 direct reports within a broader IAM organization of 10–15, and the successful candidate will step in immediately to lead, support, or stand up several high-priority initiatives already underway for a global team including resources based offshore.

Requirements

8+ years of experience in identity and access management, with progressive leadership responsibility
Proven people-management experience, ideally leading a team of 5 or more within an IAM or broader security organization
Deep knowledge across the full IAM lifecycle, spanning corporate identity, non-human/machine identity, and customer identity and access management (CIAM)
Experience owning and administering multiple IDP instances (e.g., Okta, Entra ID, Ping Identity), including consolidation efforts
Experience with modern cloud JIT approaches to identity and access provisioning
Experience leading IAM workstreams through a merger, acquisition, or other major organizational change
Demonstrated success automating manual identity processes such as access reviews, onboarding/offboarding, and role transfers
Strong understanding of compliance and audit requirements in a regulated environment (HIPAA, HITRUST, SOC 2)
Experience partnering with HR and IT on enterprise system deployments (e.g., HRIS) from an identity perspective
Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to translate technical IAM concepts for executive and business audiences
Experience in healthcare or another highly regulated industry (HIPAA/HITRUST-aware)
10+ years of experience in identity and access management, including 5+ years in a leadership role managing IAM programs, teams, or workstreams at an enterprise scale
Proven track record owning IAM strategy and operations end-to-end — not just contributing to or executing against a roadmap set by others — including full accountability for audit outcomes and regulatory posture
Deep, hands-on expertise across the full identity lifecycle spanning multiple domains: corporate/workforce identity, non-human/machine identity (service accounts, workload identities, secrets), cloud identities, and customer identity and access management (CIAM)
Experience owning and consolidating multiple IDP instances (e.g., Okta, Entra ID, Ping Identity) at the architecture and governance level, including migration/consolidation strategy — not just administering or driving adoption of a platform
Demonstrated experience designing and directing Infrastructure-as-Code-driven provisioning and Just-In-Time (JIT) / standing-access-risk reduction models in cloud environments
Direct experience leading IAM through a merger, acquisition, or major org restructuring — including system consolidation, identity reconciliation, and stakeholder alignment across previously separate organizations
Track record building and scaling an IAM organization, including hiring, structuring, and developing a team of 5+ direct reports within a broader 10–15+ person org
Executive-level accountability: experience reporting IAM program health, risk, and audit posture directly to executive leadership and GRC/board-level committees, not just partnering with compliance functions
Industry certifications required or strongly preferred at a level commensurate with seniority: CISSP required; CISM, CISA, or CCISO preferred
Bachelor's degree in a related technical field, or equivalent experience; advanced degree (MS or MBA) a plus
Experience in healthcare or another highly regulated industry (HIPAA/HITRUST-aware), with direct ownership of compliance evidence in a regulated environment
