Role
Who you are
- While specific qualifications are less important than your drive and potential, the following experiences will set you up for success in this role:
- Strong experience as a backend or platform engineer, building service layers in front of a transactional database (MySQL/Postgres) that abstract storage from internal consumers, or comparable ingestion/sync pipeline experience with Dagster, Airflow, or similar
- Proficiency in one or more modern backend languages (Python, Go, or TypeScript), with a focus on clean API design, testability, and observability
- Experience designing service or API interfaces over a transactional datastore, defining contracts that let producers and consumers evolve independently, gRPC or comparable is a plus
- A strong instinct for data correctness, observability, and SLOs in systems where downstream products take action on the output
- Familiarity with identity and access governance (IGA) data (identities, accounts, entitlements, group memberships, non-human identities) and how its correctness, freshness, and traceability shape downstream governance outcomes at scale
What the job involves
- As a Software Engineer on our Data Engineering team, you will design and ship the shared primitives product teams build identity features on. You'll lead projects like defining and shipping an integration-agnostic API for reading access-graph data
- Today Identity Intelligence consumes EntraID's access graph through a direct integration call, capping insights to a single integration, and your work will let Identity Intelligence and future products generate insights across every access-graph-enabled integration as it comes online
- We're a startup that values ownership, curiosity, and trust, and we're looking for engineers who love building platform infrastructure that enables teams to move faster while improving resilience and visibility
- Design and implement core components of our identity data platform, including APIs, service layers, and interfaces that abstract raw identity data into shared primitives other products build on
- Build and extend our data interface framework, enabling reusable patterns for contract design, versioning, and observability across producer and consumer teams
- Work across teams to migrate product surfaces off direct integration or database reads and onto well-defined, product-grade APIs
- Contribute to a world-class data infrastructure by building the product-facing APIs and shared primitives that let engineering, product, and AI teams access high-quality identity data seamlessly
- Drive key technical decisions and lead by example, through architecture reviews, mentoring, and pairing with other engineers on complex data-interface problems
- Champion resilience, observability, and scalability in every layer of the identity data platform
Our take
Modern companies leverage many different SaaS platforms to provide their staff with the tools they need to stay productive, but managing this can be a convoluted process. It can be complicated to govern software permissions, compliance and licenses for so many employees, with most businesses relying on expensive, time-consuming, and manual SaaS management workflows.
Lumos provides a unified employee identity platform and company app store, allowing businesses to manage their SaaS licenses and permissions in one place. The platform supercharges productivity by doing away with the need for manual permissions approvals, automating the process to save time while ensuring compliance.
Most businesses already have SaaS management systems in place, but Lumos has the potential to disrupt the market through its unified, self-serve approach. The company has raised significant funding over the years, the latest of which is being channelled into expanding the app. It has achieved impressive growth in between its fundraising, a trend that is only set to increase.
