Come and be you with us

 Being a Bobber is all about being you. We want you to bring all parts of yourself to work, giving you the freedom and confidence to be the best you and do your best work. If that’s bubbly, shy, precise, funny, bold, kind, honest, brilliant, or anything in between, we’re waiting with open arms. Come join us.

Within the group, the Identity Platform team safeguards every user interaction by delivering secure, low‑latency authentication and fine‑grained authorization as a service. We treat Platform as a Product—providing frictionless login, SSO, and permissions tooling so 60+ product squads can focus on customer value while we uphold performance, reliability, and security.

If building the backbone that keeps a $2.45 B unicorn fast, trusted, and compliant sounds exciting, read on.

• 8+ years building large‑scale SaaS backends, with 3+ years in a tech‑lead/staff role.

• Proven expertise designing cloud‑native micro‑services on AWS (EKS/ECS, service mesh, event streaming).

• Deep understanding of identity protocols (OIDC, OAuth2, SAML, SCIM), session security, and token‑based auth.

• Strong background in relational & NoSQL stores (PostgreSQL, Redis) and high‑throughput event pipelines (Kafka/Kinesis) powering auth flows.

• Hands‑on experience with multi‑tenant architecture, resilience patterns, performance tuning, and cost optimisation at scale.

• Excellent system‑design communication skills—able to articulate trade‑offs to engineers and executives alike.

• Passion for mentorship and growing others.

• Developing security-related infrastructure.

• Experience integrating with enterprise IdPs (Okta, Azure AD, Google Workspace) and implementing federation, MFA, or conditional access.

• Contributions to open‑source identity or policy enforcement projects.

• Own the technical vision for Hibob’s Identity Platform: centralised Authentication (password, magic‑link, social) and Authorization (RBAC/ABAC, fine‑grained permissions, audit).

• Design and evolve multi‑tenant identity services—login, session management, token issuance, SAML/OIDC connectors, SCIM provisioning—built for 10× scale and sub‑100 ms latency.

• Work hands-on alongside your team, writing high-quality code and setting technical direction.

• Build golden‑path SDKs and paved roads that let product squads secure endpoints with a single annotation and delegate permission checks to the platform.

• Embed secure‑by‑default patterns in every architecture review, ensuring new services meet our SLIs/SLOs for reliability, observability, and compliance.

• Mentor and unblock engineers through pairing, design reviews, and knowledge sharing; cultivate a high-trust, feedback-rich culture.

• Measure and iterate: track sign-in success rates, authentication latencies, and authorization decision times; run chaos and load tests to improve continuously.
