## About the role

Identity is having a moment. Every company is deploying agents, spinning up service accounts, and realizing their IAM stack can't keep up. We're building AI-native security that scales with this chaos and companies like Databricks and Figma are betting on us to get it right.

## What they're looking for

- Familiarity with our tech stack: Kubernetes, Golang, Postgres, Redis, Terraform, GraphQL, TypeScript, and React
- Experience with cloud providers (e.g., AWS / GCP) and scaling cloud infrastructure
- Has 4+ years experience as a full-time software engineer or equivalent experience building large distributed systems
- Thrives in ambiguous environments with significant ownership and with the opportunity to make decisions that have a huge impact on the business
