A live role
Senior Software Engineer, SSCS : Authentication
from GitLab · read the original and apply on their site
Bangalore, India
Our take: The real work here is building secure authentication and identity services in Go and Ruby, carefully migrating critical paths out of a monolith while keeping millions of users safe.
If you love the deep, careful work of authentication, this is a chance to build GATE from the ground up: token issuance, passkeys, machine identities for AI agents, and secure sign-on across every kind of deployment. You would write Go and Ruby, migrate tricky paths out of a large monolith without breaking trust, and set the standards others follow. It suits someone who takes security seriously, writes clearly in an async remote team, and wants their work to matter to millions of users.
