Core Responsibilities
Develop automation and tooling for corporate and customer-facing identity platformsBuild, secure, and manage geo-redundant containerized services (EKS and ECS) in AWS and AzureScale the implementation of Single Sign-On (SSO) integrations across multiple Entra ID tenants using infrastructure-as-code frameworksBuild tooling to standardize and scale operational workflows across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP)Extend the identity platform to non-human identities, treating workloads and AI agents as first-class principals with scoped, short-lived credentialsBuild the governance layer: an access graph that makes entitlements legible and a policy engine that makes authorization decisions enforceable and auditableDesign token-issuance and federation flows that make least-privilege, ephemeral access the defaultResearch and drive adoption of emerging authentication and session security standards (such as device-bound session credentials and continuous access evaluation) in collaboration with Security EngineersPressure-test designs and partner with Identity Security Engineers to threat model implementations before they shipPartner with Security Compliance Engineers to build services that reduce the cost and complexity of compliance enforcementWhat We Value
Technical proficiency in identity protocols (SAML, OIDC, OAuth 2.0, LDAP, Kerberos, FIDO2, WebAuthn)Experience managing identities and governance workflows on platforms such as Entra ID, Keycloak, AWS Cognito, or OktaExperience with policy engines and authorization-as-code, and with relationship-based access modeling or entitlement graph designExperience with token issuance and federation, including OAuth 2.0 token exchange, short-lived credentials, and workload identity federationNon-human identity experience: workload and machine identity (service-to-service authentication, mTLS, workload attestation), plus interest in agentic identity (agents as principals, delegation and on-behalf-of flows, and attribution across a delegation chain)What We Require
3+ years of experience in Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), DevOps, software engineering, or an equivalent discipline, with a strong passion for securityExperience deploying and operating containerized services (EKS, ECS, or similar) in AWS, Azure, or Google CloudExperience building and operating production services or APIs, not only automation scriptsExpert-level proficiency in a language such as Go (preferred), Python, or TypeScriptExperience with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Helm, CloudFormation, or similar)An active TS/SCI security clearance, or eligibility and willingness to obtain one
