• Oversee ICAM product design, development, systems engineering, and implementation activities with a focus on security, usability, and value delivery.
• Partner with cross‑functional teams including engineering, cybersecurity, operations, and program management—to guide product development from concept to release.
• Ensure ICAM product capabilities align with FICAM Enterprise Architecture and federal cybersecurity mandates.
• Support application onboarding and offboarding workflows, SSOi/SSOe integrations, and identity lifecycle functions across the enterprise.
• Track and report product performance metrics including adoption, value delivery, cost, schedule, and release outcomes.
• Identify product‑level risks, dependencies, and constraints early; implement mitigation strategies to ensure successful delivery.
• Collaborate with stakeholders to gather feedback, refine priorities, and ensure continuous improvement across ICAM capabilities.
• Drive user adoption by improving product design, communicating enhancements, and simplifying user experience.
• Support integration of modern ICAM technologies and emerging identity solutions aligned with Zero Trust principles.
