Lead Software Engineer

Lead Software Engineer

Role Overview

We are looking for a Lead Software Engineer to lead the design and implementation of our Identity and Access Management (IAM) ecosystem. You will be responsible for building secure, scalable, and resilient identity services that protect our customers and internal infrastructure.
The ideal candidate is a security-minded developer who views infrastructure as code and thrives in a Serverless/AWS environment. You won't just be managing permissions; you will be architecting the code that governs how users and services interact.

Key Responsibilities

 

• Architect & Build: Design and develop robust IAM solutions using AWS services (Cognito, IAM, Organizations, Verified Permissions).
• Serverless Development: Write high-performance, maintainable code for serverless applications to automate identity workflows and lifecycle management.
• Security Integration: Implement industry-standard protocols such as OAuth2, OIDC, and SAML across multi-tier applications.
• Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Use Terraform or AWS SAM to manage identity policies and cloud resources, ensuring "Least Privilege" is enforced programmatically.
• System Evolution: Lead the transition from monolithic identity patterns to modern, fine-grained access control (FGAC) or Zero Trust architectures.
• Mentorship: Conduct rigorous code reviews and mentor junior engineers on secure coding practices and cloud-native patterns.

Required Technical Skills

 

• Programming: Mastery of at least one major language (Python, Java) with a focus on writing clean, testable code.
• AWS Expertise: Deep experience with AWS.
• Serverless Stack: Proven experience building and deploying scalable applications using AWS Lambda, API Gateway, and EventBridge.
• Identity Standards: Deep understanding of the "handshake" processes in OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, and SAML 2.0.
• Database Knowledge: Experience with NoSQL (DynamoDB) for managing user metadata and session state.
