Qualifications
- Technical Expertise: Strong practical experience with Google Workspace Admin Console and Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD).
- Security Knowledge: Familiarity with SAML 2.0, SCIM, and various SSO protocols.
- Problem Solver: Demonstrated ability to independently research and implement effective workarounds for cross-platform integration challenges.
- Communication: Comfortable and effective in explaining complex technical steps to non-technical staff in a remote work setting.
Work Environment
Our team at Deliverance Charities fosters a collaborative and supportive atmosphere. We leverage tools like Google Gmail, Chat, and Space to maintain strong connections and ensure efficient teamwork across our remote operations.
