Oso helps companies run agents in production with confidence using monitoring, access controls, and automated least privilege. Backed by Sequoia and Felicis.
About the role
Educate the world on Authorization. This is a new topic for many engineers which grows with complexity as applications become more complex. The developer community needs your guidance on the best approaches to take and the challenges to anticipate. At Oso you’ll become that expert and engage with our users to help them navigate these challenging problems.
What they're looking for
- You have experience as a professional developer working in more than one programming language
- You can create clear and creative technical writing, and you can demonstrate this by sharing long-form writing samples upon request
- You have worked at a startup or in a similar environment
- A plus for those who have built authorization systems before (and who have lived to tell the tale)
- You have a track record of delivering great technical talks at small or large conferences, meetups, hackathons or similar
- Who you are
More about this role
Companies like AWS, Stripe, and Twilio have shown that if a technology isn't core to your value proposition, you should offload it. Still, every engineering team builds and rebuilds one piece: authorization , how you control who has access to what in your app. We intend to change that.
We see a world where developers never roll their own authorization again, and instead say, "Just use Oso" – the same way you might say, "Oh, you should just use Postgres for that." In doing so, we're creating the $25B+ authorization market.
We have the lead – in traction, capital, and team.
