• Partner with platform owners to standardize configurations, simplify workflows, and ensure consistent RBAC and least‑privilege access models across tools.
• Develop integrations using REST APIs, JSON, webhooks, and scripting languages (JavaScript, Python).
• Implement monitoring and alerting for SaaS platform health, anomalies, and configuration drift.
• Document environment architecture, recurring operational tasks, best practices, and platform governance models.
• Collaborate with IT, Security, GRC, Procurement, and business stakeholders to maintain consistent configuration, compliance, and operational integrity across SaaS tools.
• Troubleshoot and optimize workflows, integrations, and system behaviors to improve performance and reliability.

• 4+ years of experience in SaaS engineering, automation engineering, systems integration, or IT operations.
• Experience managing, configuring, or supporting SaaS platforms such as Google Workspace, Slack, Zoom, Okta, or Atlassian.
• Hands‑on experience with automation/integration platforms such as Workato, Flow Designer, Zapier, or Moveworks.
• Experience developing automations that enhance governance, security, and platform stability.
• Strong understanding of RBAC principles, permission models, identity lifecycle concepts, and SaaS configuration best practices.
• Proficiency with REST APIs, JSON, webhooks, and scripting languages (JavaScript, Python).
• Familiarity with cloud environments such as Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Amazon Web Services (AWS).
• Strong troubleshooting skills and an ability to work through complex system behaviors and configuration issues.
• Clear communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively across admins, SROs, and technical teams.
• Ability to execute with moderate guidance and take ownership of stability and cleanup efforts.
