About You
You're an engineering leader who cares about getting security-critical systems right — and who wants to reach customers fast, not sit buried in a backlog. You think in specs and failure modes, you stay close to the code, and you're already using AI tooling to change how your team builds, not just how quickly they move. You'll take over a small, strong team and own how the world's most demanding manufacturers authenticate, provision, and govern access — for their people and, increasingly, the AI agents acting on their behalf.
What skills or experience do I need?
- 8-9+ years of software engineering experience with 3+ years managing engineering teams in B2B SaaS — you've hired, given constructive feedback, and grown engineers
- Hands-on depth with OAuth 2.0, SAML 2.0, OIDC, and SCIM in enterprise environments — you understand the specs and their failure modes, not just the libraries.
- Experience building multi-tenant systems where tenant isolation is a hard requirement.
- Working knowledge of IAM, secrets management, and access policy across AWS and Azure, including the tradeoffs when customers span both.
- A track record of shipping clean, tested code and holding a team to the same standard.
- Active use of AI tooling in your own practice, with a point of view on how it changes the way teams build.
Key Responsibilities
- Protect operations where failures carry tangible stakes—from halted production lines to scrapped material and compliance risks. What you ship here has a direct impact on customers.
- Own the architecture and roadmap for identity & access — SSO/SAML/OIDC federation, SCIM provisioning, multi-tenant account structures, and the authorization layer across Tulip's multi-cloud infrastructure.
- Lead and grow a small, high-caliber team — run regular 1:1s, set quality standards, give direct feedback, and develop engineers on security-critical systems.
- Represent Identity & Access in cross-functional architecture reviews and roadmap decisions.
- Drive adoption of AI tooling in how the team builds — code review, test generation, spec drafting, and agent loops — and share what works across engineering.
- Make and own the hard tradeoffs on IAM and access policy where tenant isolation and enterprise compliance are non-negotiable.
- Ship work that reaches customers quickly and reliably, with operational excellence as the default.
Key Collaborators
- Security, Infrastructure
- Platform Engineering,
- Product Management
