Information Technology (UW-IT) is the central IT organization for the University of Washington. UW-IT provides strategic planning, oversight, and direction for UW’s extensive IT infrastructure, resources, and services. UW-IT partners with the UW community to enable innovation, learning, discovery, and service.

IT Infrastructure (ITI) division of UW-IT delivers the technology infrastructure required to sustain UW as a leading research, teaching, learning, and medical institution. These technologies support the UW’s core mission at all levels – research, teaching, learning, healthcare, and the necessary underlying administrative and operational functions required to deliver these services. ITI infrastructure supports all three UW campuses (Seattle, Bothell, and Tacoma), UW Medicine (medical centers and clinics), the state K-20 Education Network (300+ school districts), and the Pacific Northwest Gigapop (research & education networks throughout the PNW and Pacific Rim). ITI designs, builds, and operates technology infrastructure services including networks, computing & storage solutions, data centers, telecommunications services, identity & access management, and the infrastructure tools required to operate, integrate, and report on these services.

The Identity and Access Management (IAM) program within ITI is responsible for critical infrastructure and IT services for identity registration and administration, account and credential management (e.g. UW NetIDs), authentication and single sign-on, access control and administration, and participation in national and global federations (e.g. InCommon, eduroam), all in support of institutional needs for identity, privacy, security, accountability, transparency, efficiency, and cost-effective management of institutional risk.
This position designs, develops, integrates, and operates IAM services including custom-built, open source, and vendor products such as: UW Identity Registry, UW NetID (accounts and passwords), Kerberos (MIT, Microsoft), SAML Identity Provider (Shibboleth), Multi-Factor Authentication (Duo), RADIUS authentication, UW Groups (Internet2 Grouper Toolkit), ASTRA (privilege/role management system), Directory Services (OpenLDAP), Certificate Authority services (UW CA, InCommon CA), and Microsoft Infrastructure (including ADFS and Azure AD). These are trusted, common good services relied upon by the UW’s enterprise portfolio of IT services and business applications.

The Enterprise Software Developer position also collaborates with peers and others to improve practices, processes, and tools for software development, testing, and versioning, continuous integration, automated release and deployment of service changes, and operations and monitoring.
