• Troubleshoot authentication and federation issues using logs, assertions, and configuration analysis.
• Execute migrations based on established documentation and runbooks.
• Validate authentication flows across pre-production and production environments to ensure successful transitions.
• Manage multiple concurrent application migrations while maintaining operational discipline.

Required Qualifications
