About the role

  • You understand both the SP and IdP sides of federation deeply, attribute statements, assertion mapping, binding types, token claims, and PKCE flows are not new territory.
  • You work closely with People Ops and IT Security to align lifecycle triggers with HR systems, enforce role-based provisioning via SCIM and group rules, and produce the evidence needed for SOC 2 and access review cycles.
  • Communicate clearly with both technical and executive audiences on project status, risk, and outcomes.

Responsibilities

  • IT Automation & Workflow Engineering: Own and evolve Amplitude's IT automation platform with Okta Workflows as the primary engine.
  • Design and deliver reliable, scalable automations across onboarding and offboarding, access provisioning, SaaS license management, and compliance workflows.
  • SAML, OIDC & Federation Engineering: Design, implement, and troubleshoot complex SAML 2.0 and OIDC integrations across enterprise SaaS applications.
  • You own the integration from initial configuration through ongoing reconciliation and incident triage.
  • You maintain fleet compliance through automated checks and can diagnose complex endpoint issues without escalation.
  • AI-Assisted IT Operations: Champion AI adoption within IT, identifying high-value automation opportunities, evaluating AI-native and low-code tooling, and building agentic workflows that augment IT service delivery.
  • You use LLMs to accelerate your own work (drafting runbooks, triaging issues, summarizing access reviews) and you build AI-powered automations where they create real leverage.
  • Google Workspace Administration: Own Workspace admin depth, directory configuration, group management, Drive and sharing policy enforcement, DLP settings, and audit log triage.
  • You maintain clean provisioning and deprovisioning integration between Workspace and Okta.
  • IT Compliance & Access Reviews: Support SOC 2 evidence collection and access review workflows, including building and maintaining automated pipelines that surface access anomalies, generate reviewer-ready reports, and track remediation to closure.

Requirements

  • Identity & federation depth: You have built net-new SAML 2.0 and OIDC integrations from scratch on both the SP and IdP sides.
  • You can move quickly without looping in engineering.
  • AI proficiency: You actively use AI tools (Claude, Copilot, or similar) to accelerate your own work, and you have built or designed AI-powered automations or agentic workflows.
  • Autonomy & ownership: You work through ambiguous problems independently from initial triage through remediation and documentation.
  • You have built net-new SAML 2.0 and OIDC integrations from scratch on both the SP and IdP sides.
