This is a UK-based role. You will be required to interview in person. Must be a UK Citizen.

About Sail Point Sail Point  is defining the next era of identity security. Our unified, AI-powered platform seamlessly secures both the Human Fabric of your workforce and the Agentic Fabric of AI and non-human identities, completely eliminating organizational blind spots.

Built on core principles like zero-standing privilege and contextualized risk, our platform transforms identity from a vulnerability into a strategic business advantage. Today, we are trusted by some of the largest, most complex organizations in the world to deliver intelligent, autonomous identity security ut the role

As a Software Engineer on the Platform Engineering team, you will design, build, and run mission-critical platform services that enable applications to define policies, make real-time decisions, and react dynamically to changes across millions of identities in our Identity  a typical day, you will write high-performance Golang code, develop robust full-stack features using Angular on the frontend, and implement resilient microservices deployed on AWS.

You will collaborate closely with distributed team members, partner with data scientists on AI-driven features, and optimize distributed cloud architectures for low-millisecond latency.

About the team

You will join one of our UK Platform Engineering teams dedicated to designing, building, and operating core services for SailPoint's Identity Security Cloud. We are a collaborative group of backend and UI specialists transitioning to full-stack feature ownership. We value knowledge sharing, high code quality, and regular collaboration, meeting in person once per quarter for a one- to two-day team offsite.
