Deeply hands-on IAM leader with strong expertise across IAM platforms and solutions.
Also oversees 6-7 resources working on OneSign under Lavanya Kotha; however, the platform has limited long-term growth potential and may be phased down over time.
MightyID is his primary area of focus and is expected to see significant investment and growth next year. The team has also worked with BeyondIdentity.
The nature of skills demands a strong onsite presence for most of his team.
During freeze periods, his team actively evaluates new technologies, runs POCs, and presents recommendations to leadership.
He has unutilized funds available to support new initiatives till EOY.
He said he is not familiar with Project Meridian and showed limited interest in AI-focused discussions at this stage.
Leadership / Relationship Insights:
Recently transitioned to a new manager who is still onboarding into the organization.
His recommendations are highly valued by Karen and her team and often actioned into tangible roadmaps.
I got the sense that he is a strong people manager who is highly committed to supporting both employees and vendors.
