Software Engineer – Platform Services

Full-time Remote Exclusive confidential search — details shared with qualified applicants.

You will own and extend the foundational identity and authorization systems that enable multiple product teams to authenticate users, enforce access, and integrate reliably across a multi-tenant SaaS platform. You will work as an individual contributor on a small, high-output Platform Foundation team, collaborating with product teams and other engineers in a fully Remote model. Your work directly affects platform reliability, developer experience, and downstream product velocity.

• Build and extend platform services that manage federated identity, authentication flows, and authorization enforcement across multiple products
• Implement integrations with the centralized identity platform: token handling, session management, user provisioning, and tenant configuration
• Design and implement backend service integrations (REST APIs, event-driven messaging, webhooks) in Python  with multi-tenant scenarios in mind
• Produce tooling, documentation, and examples to make integrations repeatable and self-service for product teams
• Use AI-assisted development tools daily for code generation, design validation, test scaffolding, and investigation; contribute to AI harnesses and evaluation pipelines
• Instrument services for observability (structured logging, metrics, alerting) and participate in on-call rotations and incident resolution
• Participate in API design reviews, code reviews, and mentor junior engineers; contribute to runbooks and onboarding materials

• 3–5 years of professional software engineering experience with demonstrated ability to own and deliver production features
• Hands-on experience building backend services  or Python, including RESTful API development
• Demonstrated experience implementing or integrating with federated identity standards (OAuth 2.0, OIDC, SAML 2.0, JWT)
• Practical understanding of authorization frameworks and token/session lifecycle considerations
• Familiarity with multi-tenant SaaS integration patterns and tenant-scoped configuration
• Working knowledge of cloud platforms (AWS preferred) and standard tooling:
  Git, CI/CD, Docker, automated testing
• Active use of AI-assisted development tools as part of your daily workflow
• Bachelor's degree in CS, Software Engineering, or equivalent experience (or equivalent demonstrated experience)

• Prior experience with a commercial or open-source identity platform or enterprise SSO solution in an engineering capacity
• Experience modeling and implementing fine-grained authorization (RBAC, ABAC, policy-based access control)
• Experience in regulated environments (financial services/fintech) or exposure to SOC 2 from an engineering perspective
• Experience contributing to AI harnesses, evaluation pipelines, or tooling that improves engineering throughput
