📋 Description

• Design, develop, test, deploy, and monitor high-performance backend services and APIs using Go and Python, with an emphasis on secure, low-latency authentication and identity workflows. • Build and maintain cloud‑native services across AWS and GCP (e.g., S3, DynamoDB, Kinesis, IAM) with a focus on reliability, scale, and secure production operation, including data pipelines that feed downstream ML and risk models used in authentication decisions. • Deliver features and enhancements through the full software development lifecycle, including implementation, automated testing, deployment, and operational support, using CI/CD and infrastructure‑as‑code practices. • Tackle complex software engineering problems in authentication, identity, and fraud prevention—contributing to architecture decisions, threat‑aware design, and continuous improvement of engineering best practices across the team. • Integrate and consume AI/ML capabilities (for example, model-backed risk scores, deepfake detection signals, or ML‑driven policies) by collaborating with Research, MLOps, and Protect/Passport teams, and help productionize these models into scalable, observable services. • Use observability and diagnostics tooling (metrics, logging, tracing, dashboards) to troubleshoot production issues, reduce alert noise, and systematically improve reliability and latency for authentication journeys. • Partner closely with software engineering, test engineering, research, product, Protect, Passport, and Core teams to deliver new capabilities and improve existing ones, including AI‑enhanced identity and fraud experiences for customers. • Participate in the team’s on‑call rotation, including helping cover after‑hours alerts as we expand distributed support coverage for our customer‑facing authentication platform. • Contribute to documentation, runbooks, and design reviews that clarify how authentication services behave, how AI/ML components are used safely, and how other engineers should integrate with the platform.

🎯 Requirements

• 5-7+ years of professional software development experience building backend services and APIs. • Strong experience with Go, Python, or similar languages, plus a solid foundation in data structures, algorithms, concurrency, and Linux-based development. • Hands-on experience designing and operating cloud-native systems in AWS or GCP, including managed services such as S3, DynamoDB, Kinesis, and IAM. • Experience with CI/CD, DevOps, Docker, Kubernetes, and production ownership, including deploying, monitoring, troubleshooting, and supporting services in live environments.
