Automated joiner/mover/leaver (JML) workflows

Ensure least privilege and zero-trust principles are enforced

Support audits, access reviews, and compliance initiatives

⚙️ Automate & Improve

Identify repetitive tasks and automate operational processes

Improve monitoring, deployments, and recovery procedures

Contribute to reducing incidents and improving system resilience

🤝 Collaborate Across Teams

Act as a bridge between business, development, infrastructure, and security teams

Provide feedback to improve application design and operability
