Description

We’re building the identity and access layer that every service in our SaaS control plane depends on. You’ll own the common auth stack — making sure the right principals get the right access, consistently, across every tenant and product surface.

Requirements

You should have

– 5+ years building auth systems in production SaaS environments.

– Robust Go or Python (ideally both); comfortable writing performant, well-tested service code in either.

– Deep knowledge of OAuth 2.0, OIDC, JWT, and SAML — not just using libraries but understanding what’s happening underneath.

– Experience with authorization policy engines (OPA, Casbin, or equivalent) and modeling complex permission structures.

– Familiarity with multi-tenant isolation patterns and the security implications of getting them wrong.

– Comfort in an AWS/EKS environment with secrets management (AWS Secrets Manager, Vault).

Nice to have: SCIM provisioning, FIDO2/WebAuthn, zero-trust networking, SOC 2 audit experience, or prior work on a shared platform team serving internal consumers.





Job responsibilities

What you’ll do

– Design and operate the centralized authn/authz platform: token issuance and validation (OIDC/JWT), OAuth 2.0 flows, API key management, and service-to-service identity.

– Build and maintain the authorization model: RBAC and ABAC policies, tenant isolation enforcement, and fine-grained permission evaluation (Open Policy Agent or similar).

– Expose auth as a shared internal service consumed by the rest of the control plane — clean APIs, well-documented contracts, and minimal coupling.

– Partner with product and platform teams to implement SSO integrations (SAML, SCIM) and onboard enterprise identity providers.

– Harden the auth layer: token rotation, secret management, audit logging, and threat modeling against common identity attacks.

– Drive adoption of consistent auth patterns across services, replacing one-off implementations.
