Subject Matter Expert ICAM
GDIT is partnering with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to modernize and secure the enterprise Identity, Credential, and Access Management (ICAM) capabilities that support millions of Veterans nationwide. As an ICAM Subject Matter Expert (SME), you will provide high‑level advisory support, advanced technical expertise, and strategic guidance to help VA advance its enterprise identity modernization and Zero Trust initiatives.
You will serve as a trusted advisor on emerging ICAM technologies, architectures, and industry best practices providing “reach‑back” expertise to program leadership, engineering teams, and federal stakeholders. This role is ideal for a senior practitioner experienced in scaling cutting‑edge identity solutions across large, complex, multi‑entity organizations.
HOW A SUBJECT MATTER EXPERT WILL MAKE AN IMPACT:
• Recommend emerging ICAM technologies, architectural patterns, and industry best practices to support VA’s ongoing identity modernization efforts.
• Provide strategic guidance and SME‑level expertise on ICAM solution design, implementation, and governance across enterprise environments.
• Support evaluations and roadmap development for modern ICAM capabilities including digital identity, Zero Trust, cloud IAM, and advanced authentication.
• Deliver expert insight on modern ICAM methodologies such as digital wallets, biometrics, conditional access, contextual authentication, and federated identity.
• Guide engineering and architecture teams on PAM, SSO, FSSO, CDSSO, MFA, identity lifecycle management, and day‑to‑day ICAM operations.
• Bring deep knowledge of emerging ICAM technologies including CyberArk, Okta, SailPoint, Saviynt, and Radiant Logic VDS.
• Translate complex requirements involving CAC/PIV federation, STIG compliance, and cross‑domain identity constraints into operable healthcare‑aligned identity solutions.
• Support harmonization and modernization across converged identity platforms integrating:
– Identity Governance and Administration (IGA)
– Cloud Privileged Access Management (CPAM)
– Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC)
– SSO and federated SSO
– Third‑Party Access Governance
• Assist with strategic planning, architectural reviews, modernization roadmaps, and evaluation of new identity capabilities.
• Collaborate with partners such as DoW and other large enterprises to design and support unified identity ecosystems.
• Provide guidance to leadership, engineering teams, and stakeholders on scalability, compliance, risk mitigation, and modernization opportunities.
WHAT YOU'LL NEED TO SUCCEED:
• Ability to obtain a Public Trust clearance.
• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related discipline.
• 10+ years of experience architecting, strategizing, and implementing ICAM solutions for large enterprises in federal, commercial, state/local, or healthcare environments.
• Expertise with enterprise ICAM platforms including CyberArk, Okta, SailPoint, Saviynt, and Radiant Logic.
• Strong understanding of digital identity methodologies, advanced MFA, PAM, federated SSO, cloud IAM, and modern authentication patterns.
• Experience supporting enterprise identity architectures across complex environments with multiple user communities and operational boundaries.
• Experience working with DoW or similar partners to integrate with identity/security expectations such as CAC/PIV federation, STIG compliance, and cross‑domain constraints.
• Deep understanding of converged identity platform approaches combining IGA, CPAM, GRC, SSO, and third‑party access governance.
• Knowledge of operational identity delivery including lifecycle management, continuous monitoring, system upgrades, troubleshooting, and enterprise SSO patterns.
• Strong familiarity with federal ICAM mandates including OMB M‑19‑17, NIST 800‑63, EO 14028, and OMB M‑22‑09.
