• Handle customer-facing SSO setup and configuration (SAML/OIDC), managing technical coordination with client IT/security teams and automating manual processes for enterprise scalability.
• Design repeatable, auditable systems, tooling, documentation, and workflows to support growth from 40 to 200+ employees.
