Senior Software Engineer, Authorization

As a Senior Software Engineer, you’ll design and deliver secure, scalable services that underpin modern identity and authorization capabilities.
You’ll work primarily with Go, Node.js, and/or Python to build production-grade systems with a strong focus on performance, reliability, and maintainability.
The role combines hands-on engineering with technical leadership, cross-functional collaboration, and continuous improvement of development practices.
You’ll contribute to core authorization and IAM capabilities using technologies such as OAuth 2.0, OIDC, JWT, and infrastructure-as-code.
Working across multiple time zones, you’ll help drive clear technical decisions through strong documentation and asynchronous collaboration.
You’ll also champion automated testing, CI/CD quality gates, observability, and reliable deployment practices.
This is an opportunity to influence engineering standards while building security-critical software in a distributed, remote-first environment.
