Staff Software Engineer, ISPM - India

JumpCloud® is the AI-powered unified IT management platform designed to secure the modern workforce. By consolidating identity, device, and access management, JumpCloud provides intelligent, secure IT that scales from human users to autonomous AI agents. We help organizations around the globe eliminate complexity and turn AI risk into an optimized advantage, ensuring the right people and agents have secure access to the right resources at all times.

 

Modern enterprises no longer have a physical perimeter; identity is the new boundary. However, this boundary is currently fragmented, opaque, and highly volatile. IT Admins today are drowning in "Identity Debt"—stale accounts, over-privileged permissions, and hidden misconfigurations that remain invisible until they are exploited.

The industry is reactive. At JumpCloud, we believe security should be proactive. The challenge is to build a platform that doesn't just manage identities but actively audits, predicts, and remediates risks across millions of objects in real-time. We need to turn "Trust Nothing, Verify Everything" from a slogan into a high-scale, event-driven reality.

You will lead the "zero-to-one" journey, defining how we use high-scale stream processing to protect thousands of organizations.

You will be responsible for driving the ISPM feature set end-to-end—from strategic planning and platform architecture to hands-on development and operational excellence. This is a unique opportunity for an ambitious engineer to build the "pipes" and the "logic" that will redefine the security posture of the modern workforce while building a platform that accelerates product development across the entire company.
