What the job involves
- We are looking for a passionate Staff Software Engineer, Backend who will play a key role in designing, developing, and maintaining the next frontier of Agent Identity Security
- The team is advancing Agent Identity Security as AI agents and copilots rapidly expand across enterprise systems. The team drives innovation, defines next-generation IGA for non-human identities and agents, and helps shape new industry standards as the AI agent ecosystem evolves
- Its work includes discovering agents, tracking their actions, and defining access management and runtime authorization capabilities to maintain a strong security posture
- In this role, you will tackle the unique access risks posed by AI agents, contributing to a high-impact startup at the cutting edge of Identity and Access Management. This is an exciting opportunity where your key responsibilities will include:
- Architect and Build: Design, develop, and scale a comprehensive identity security solution for AI agents, ensuring it can manage a diverse landscape of agents deployed across different applications and systems
- Strategic Influence: Shape our long-term agent identity security roadmap and help define industry standards for securing agents, providing visibility into rogue agents, and ensuring least privilege access
- Cross-functional Collaboration: Work closely with product management, other engineering teams, and security experts to translate complex security challenges into robust, scalable, and production-grade features

Our take
ServiceNow provides cloud-based solutions that define, structure, manage, and automate services for enterprise operations, transforming old, manual ways of working into modern digital workflows. The company was founded in 2004 with a vision to build a cloud-based platform that would enable regular people to route work effectively through the enterprise.
Much as Salesforce enables a company to manage its external clients by keeping a record of all contacts and interactions, ServiceNow promises an internal system to meet the needs of employees. It has succeeded in claiming half the market, setting itself apart from legacy IT service-management software players like BMC Software, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Cherwell Software and CA Technologies.
The company's success comes from two product traits: simplicity and customisability. ServiceNow's IT tools don't require the IT department to set them up. Once running, they offer a single collection centre for requests, data points and checklists, all of which can in turn be analysed by algorithms to predict needs, flag concerns and measure efficiency.
The company has more than 7,700 customers, including 85% of the Fortune 500 list of the United States' largest corporations. ServiceNow now looks to increase its revenue threefold in the upcoming years and has entered into a 5-year partnership plan with Visa, beginning with the launch of a Visa-integrated dispute resolution solution for issuers. The company is prioritising organic growth over mergers and acquisitions, with a target revenue of $15B, something which its Visa partnership will no doubt aid in achieving.
