Why we read it this way (6)
This is a 1-year contract engagement (hybrid: 3 days onsite in Brooklyn, NY / 2 days remote); classified as Contract accordingly.
The role is IAM-specialist focused — closer to identity security engineering than general information security analysis. 15-1212 (Information Security Analysts) is the best available fit; 15-1299 is noted as a runner-up given the deep engineering/automation emphasis.
Identity Governance capabilities (access reviews, certification workflows, role mining, provisioning automation) and identity lifecycle management (joiner/mover/leaver, attribute governance) are hard-gated in the mandatory skills block but name no specific vendor platform (e.g., SailPoint, Saviynt, CyberArk) — captured via the surrounding named technologies rather than as a generic concept.
Zero-trust architecture and regulatory compliance (NIST, ISO 27001, NYC local laws) appear under Desirable Skills and name no concrete tool, so they are omitted per the no-generic-concepts rule.
No compensation figures were provided in the posting.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
