Randstad is seeking a high-caliber Lead IAM Product Manager to drive enterprise-wide Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) initiatives for our premier client in Washington, DC. In this hybrid leadership role, you will bridge the gap between strategic product ownership and tactical program delivery, serving as both the Agile Product Owner and Delivery Lead for modernizing identity security. You will define the multi-year IGA product vision, prioritize the product backlog, and lead complex enterprise implementations-including large-scale deployments of SailPoint Identity Security Cloud and major application onboarding workstreams. Collaborating directly with cybersecurity, IT engineering, architecture, audit, and senior business stakeholders, you will ensure seamless identity lifecycle governance, robust regulatory compliance, and measurable business outcomes across the organization.
Product Vision & Backlog Management: Own the enterprise IAM/IGA roadmap, translating strategic security, compliance, audit, and business objectives into prioritized epics, features, user stories, acceptance criteria, and clear Definitions of Done.
Agile Leadership & Ceremonies: Function as the primary Agile Product Owner, leading sprint planning, backlog grooming, refinement sessions, sprint reviews/demos, and stakeholder acceptance sign-offs.
Program & Delivery Execution: Manage end-to-end implementation workstreams and application onboarding pipelines; track milestones, monitor RAID logs (risks, assumptions, issues, dependencies), manage vendor relationships, and deliver executive-level reporting.
Identity Lifecycle Governance: Drive functional and technical discovery across Joiner/Mover/Leaver (JML) workflows, automated provisioning/deprovisioning, Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), access requests, periodic certifications, account correlation, and Segregation of Duties (SoD).
Cross-Functional Influence & Alignment: Partner closely with IAM engineering, enterprise architecture, security operations, application owners, and executive leadership to remove delivery blockers and ensure scalable, high-quality technical implementations.
Enterprise IAM/IGA Experience: Demonstrated track record leading complex, large-scale Identity Governance implementations, with direct hands-on experience in SailPoint Identity Security Cloud or comparable enterprise IGA suites (e.g., SailPoint IdentityIQ, Saviynt, Ping Identity, ForgeRock).
Hybrid PO/PM Expertise: Proven background successfully operating in a dual capacity as both an Agile Product Owner and an enterprise Project/Program Delivery Lead.
Deep Domain Knowledge: Strong understanding of core IAM concepts, including identity lifecycle management, privileged access governance, application onboarding standards, directory services, and audit/compliance frameworks (e.g., NIST, SOX, HIPAA).
Requirements Translation: Proven ability to elicit requirements from business and technical stakeholders, converting complex audit, regulatory, and architectural needs into actionable sprint items.
Stakeholder Leadership: Outstanding written, verbal, and executive presentation skills, with a demonstrated ability to lead multi-disciplinary teams and influence decisions without direct line authority.
Preferred Certifications: PMP (Project Management Professional), SAFe POPM (Product Owner/Product Manager), and/or CISSP (Certified Information Systems Security Professional).
Equal Opportunity Employer: Race, Color, Religion, Sex, Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity, National Origin, Age, Genetic Information, Disability, Protected Veteran Status, or any other legally protected group status.
