IDENTITY GOVERNANCE ENGINEER GURUGRAM, INDIA

Enterprise identity governance, built for audit.

Senior Associate, Cyber Identity at PwC Acceleration Centers. Four-plus years delivering Saviynt EIC programmes for global clients — connector engineering, joiner-mover-leaver automation, and access certification that stands up to audit.

SCROLL
[ 01 · BACKGROUND ]

Background.

I work in enterprise identity governance, where the objective is straightforward to state and difficult to deliver: every person holds exactly the access their role requires, and the organisation can prove it.

I began at Wipro after completing my Computer Science degree, taking ownership of a Saviynt SSM to EIC migration and the connector work around it. Two and a half years later I joined Deloitte to deliver IGA programmes for larger clients with more complex estates and stricter regulatory obligations — platform migrations, more than a dozen connector integrations, and custom Java extensions where standard product capability fell short.

At PwC Acceleration Centers I apply the same discipline for global clients: provisioning automated to the point that manual requests are the exception, and audit evidence complete enough that certification cycles run as routine. Where out-of-the-box configuration cannot meet a requirement, I build the extension that can.
