The University of Wisconsin-Madison's Division of Information Technology (DoIT) is looking for two Identity and Access Management (IAM) Support Analysts to join our dynamic, growing team. DoIT supports teaching and learning at UW-Madison by providing innovative, user-centered, reliable technology solutions. The division is made up of more than 600 employees working together across multiple departments. A job with DoIT means great benefits, meaningful work, and a supportive environment.

Our IAM team acquires, develops, and maintains identity and access systems, products, and tools for the entire University of Wisconsin (UW) System and, more specifically, UW-Madison.

While these roles will sit on different teams within Identity and Access Management, the roles are charged with concerted efforts to increase awareness of IAM services, documentation and best practices which will result in a more knowledgeable user base and more realistic expectations of IAM services and systems.

Duties include:
-Technical product support
