Position Summary:

• Error Resolution: Troubleshoot and resolve known integration issues, such as:

• Password history conflicts

• Internal Server errors requiring coordination with teams.

• Job Control & Monitoring: Monitor job logs for failures or "hung" processes. Perform manual re-runs of import jobs while coordinating timing to avoid overlap with incremental provisioning.

• Maintenance: Pause and resume reconciliation jobs during downstream system outages to prevent data corruption.

User Lifecycle Management

• Rehire Auditing: Validate the "Rehired User" process to ensure correct behavior, including confirming Role assignments, birthright role provisioning, and the re-linking of orphaned Google accounts.
• Role Governance: Perform weekly de-provisioning of Enterprise Roles mapped to users who have been inactive/terminated for greater than 30 days.

Google Workspace Administration

• Access Requests: Review and approve Google New Account and SKU Upgrade requests.

Synchronization: Investigate and resolve Google SKU assignment mismatches and troubleshoot connector issues impacting import mappings.

When you will work:

• Hybrid schedule, 4 days in office in Wyoming, MI, with 1 day remote

What you will bring to the table:

• Technical Aptitude: Experience with or strong desire to learn Identity and Access Management (IAM) concepts.
• Problem Solving: Ability to analyze system logs, identify error patterns (e.g., HTTP 500 errors, password failures), and follow technical documentation to resolve complex issues.
• Communication: Excellent written and verbal skills to coordinate with HR, end-users, and other IT teams.
• Attention to Detail: Critical for managing user access rights and ensuring compliance during rehire and termination processes.
