Persona is the configurable identity platform built for businesses in a digital-first world. Verifying individuals and organizations is harder — but more important — than ever, with AI enabling fraudsters to launch sophisticated accounts at scale and regulations evolving rapidly.

We’ve built Persona to support practically every use case and industry — that’s why we’re able to serve a wide range of leading companies. For example, Reddit relies on Persona for age assurance and verification to comply with online safety regulations, protecting younger users while maintaining a seamless experience. Meanwhile, OpenAI relies on Persona to keep bad actors out, protecting one of the world’s most powerful AI platforms from large-scale abuse in a time when AI is reshaping the way we work and live.

We’re growing rapidly and looking for exceptional people to join us!

Pursuing a Bachelor's or Master's in computer science, engineering, math, or related discipline with a strong CS background
Previous programming experience is a must. While we use Ruby/Rails, Typescript, React, Redux, Android, iOS, and Python, we care more about engineering skills than knowledge of specific languages or frameworks
Proficiency in full-stack development, previous experience with data modeling and schema design
Ability to work independently and collaboratively to execute projects and adhere to deadlines - Eager to discuss positive and negative feedback regarding large projects
Willing to be in-person in San Francisco and work out of our San Francisco office Tuesday - Thursdays (WFH option Mondays and Fridays)
You thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth startup environment

At Persona, we believe in people above all else. We strive to create an inclusive environment where everyone's contributions are valued and their growth is supported. We're honored to be recognized as one of Fortune's Best Medium Workplaces, a testament to our commitment to fostering a world-class team.
