Mainframe System Programmer
SailPoint Technologies is a product-based IT company in the Identity and Access Management domain. We take pride in being Leaders in this domain, competing with big giants, enabling customers to efficiently manage digital identities securely and confidently.
Our identity governance platform answers three critical questions: Who has access to what? Who should have access to what? How is that access being used?
SailPoint helps organizations meet their service delivery requirements, improve internal controls, and manage the risks associated with access to sensitive data and applications across the enterprise.
Beyond great products, SailPoint has a great culture and a fun-loving work environment that is highly motivating and productive. We have the best identity team in the world working for us and are passionate about the power of identity. You can find more information about us at www.sailpoint.com.
SailPoint’s Mainframe team develops Connectors for the three main security products: RACF, ACF2, and TSS. These connectors are offered as part of the SailPoint Identity Security Cloud and IdentityIQ products.
Using these Connectors, we provide our customers an efficient and reliable way to securely govern their Mainframe systems.
We have historically used zPDT environments to develop, validate, and support our connectors, and are now moving these environments to IBM’s cloud-hosted service that provides on-demand z/OS development and test environments (HDISV).
