Senior Software Engineer

THIS IS A REMOTE ROLE BUT MUST CURRENTLY BE BASED IN THE UKAbout SailPoint

SailPoint is the leader in identity security for the cloud enterprise. Our identity security solutions secure and enable thousands of companies worldwide, giving our customers unmatched visibility into the entirety of their digital workforce, ensuring workers have the right access to do their job – no more, no less.

Built on a foundation of AI and ML, our Identity Security Cloud Platform, Atlas delivers the right level of access to the right identities and resources at the right time—matching the scale, velocity, and changing needs of today’s cloud-oriented, modern enterprise.

About the team

You’ll be joining one of the UK-based, remote engineering teams, helping design and build capabilities for the Atlas platform. As a smaller team with a backend focus, you will be a key contributor. We usually have a one- or two-day, in-person meetup with the other UK remote engineering teams once per quarter.

The role

We are ramping up a new initiative to build a platform service that will allow our applications to define policies, make decisions, and react to changes based on a combination of historical and near real-time data in our Identity Graph. We’re designing for many millions of identities and, in some cases, low millisecond response times, to make critical access decisions.

In a typical day you’ll be working in Golang to deliver on the vision for the policy engine. You’ll design and develop microservices collaborating with product management, UI, UX, test, and architects both within the UK teams and around the world. Sometimes you’ll be working with specialists, like the Data Science Team when working on AI-related features.

In 90 days, you’d be on-boarded and landing work in collaboration with the tech lead.

In 6 months, you’d be operating with a high degree of autonomy to deliver on the team goals.

In 1 year, you’d be a Subject Matter Expert able to run projects as the team grows.
