JOB-1742

  • Permanent
  • Remote

A technology company is forming a fresh team to own login, permissions and access control across all of its products, and needs a first manager to lead it. The job mixes people leadership with roughly a third of the week in technical work, and the team has to be built from scratch.

What you’ll own

  • Set direction for and deliver a central, modular service for authentication and authorization
  • Make sure identity and permissions behave uniformly for every product and customer
  • Stay involved through code reviews and architectural design
  • Lead and develop engineers, starting from a single report, and recruit as the group grows
  • Coordinate platform priorities with the senior manager responsible for data and security

Qualifications

  • Seven to twelve years of software engineering, including at least three managing engineers with direct reports
  • Production experience building or leading identity, authentication, authorization or access-control systems
  • Continued hands-on involvement in code review and system design
  • Familiarity with OAuth 2.0 and OIDC, SAML, SCIM, RBAC or ABAC, and policy engines is a plus
  • Experience with AWS, including GovCloud, and having grown a team toward ten engineers are both helpful
  • US-person status is required

Remote within the United States. Visa sponsorship is not available.
