Job Description:

Advance how our customers operate while you advance your career. Join GDIT as an Identity, Credential, and Access Management (ICAM) Specialist and build an impactful career in enterprise IT, collaborating with people who are driven and resourceful like you.

The Case Management Modernization (CMM) Program is an initiative to support the Administrative Office of the (AO) US Courts develop a modern cloud-based solution to support all federal courts across the United States which are grouped into three types, namely Appellate, District, and Bankruptcy. This modernized case management system will eventually replace the current Case Management and Electronic Case Filing (CM/ECF) system.

The ICAM Specialist supports the CMM Program by designing, implementing, and managing secure authentication and authorization frameworks across modernized cloud-based applications. This role ensures compliance with federal identity governance, FedRAMP, and Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) principles within an AWS environment. The ICAM Specialist collaborates with architecture, security, and DevSecOps teams to ensure access control, identity federation, and credential management are integrated seamlessly across all layers of the CMM application ecosystem.
