Were building foundational infrastructure to secure AI agents-including their identities, access patterns, and interactions with sensitive systems and data.
This includes designing intelligent, dynamic mechanisms for ephemeral access control, secrets management, and agent and user identity tailored to the modern agent ecosystem.
As the Manager, youll not only help define how agents authenticate, receive scoped access, perform actions securely, and leave behind a verifiable audit trail - youll also be responsible for building and leading a high-impact engineering team from the ground up.
This is a rare opportunity to combine hands-on engineering with technical leadership-writing critical code, mentoring engineers, sharing knowledge, and driving best practices-while building a platform from the ground up at the cutting edge of AI, identity, and security.
Responsibilities
Lead the end-to-end development of a secure platform for managing AI agents identities, permissions, access control, and execution context.
Recruit, onboard, and mentor a team of engineers, shaping the teams culture and technical direction.
Drive the design and implementation of core services, ensuring high performance, security, and maintainability.
Enforce engineering excellence and best practices, including testing, code reviews, observability, secure coding, and CI/CD pipelines.
Stay hands-on: actively contribute to critical paths in architecture, prototyping, and complex problem-solving.
Ensure your teams deliverables meet high standards of performance, resilience, and security in production.
Requirements: You bring a Bachelors degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
You bring 3+ years of experience leading software engineering teams in a product-driven environment.
You bring 5+ years of hands-on backend or systems development experience, using languages such as Python, Go, Java, or C#.
You bring experience-or a strong interest-in identity, authentication, authorization, or secrets management, and youre excited to apply these principles to AI and agent frameworks.
Youre comfortable building cloud-native systems and working with modern infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and agile development practices.
Youre able to balance long-term architectural vision with fast-paced execution, especially in early-stage or high-growth environments.
You thrive in ambiguity, make high-impact technical decisions, and confidently guide others through complex tradeoffs.
You communicate clearly and effectively, aligning engineers, product managers, and stakeholders around technical direction.
Youre passionate about mentorship, knowledge sharing, and raising the technical bar across your team.
Youre self-driven, proactive, and organized, with a strong focus on delivering secure, scalable, and high-quality systems that make a real impact.
This position is open to all candidates.
