Key Responsibilities & Deliverables:
This role is focused on the successful completion of specific tasks and deliverables. Your responsibilities will include:
- Impact and Identity Analysis: Evaluate how UPN and email domain changes will impact existing systems; perform identity mapping and validation of attribute updates flowing into Entra ID.
- Documentation and Risk Mitigation: Map identity dependencies across Entra ID and connected services; identify risks and remediation steps, and maintain up-to-date system documentation.
- Stakeholder Management: Work with application owners to confirm current system behaviors and report findings to the Project Lead.
