Mountain View, United States ID.me Full time
Company Overview

ID.me is a high-growth enterprise software company that simplifies how people prove and share their identity online. The company empowers people to control their data through a portable and trusted login, which means they don't need to create a new password when visiting sites that have the ID.me button. ID.me's digital identity network has over 117 million registered members, and is used by fourteen federal agencies, agencies in 30 states and over 600 corporations for secure identity proofing and verification.

ID.me's technology meets the federal standards for consumer authentication set by the Commerce Department and is approved as a NIST 800-63-3 IAL2 / AAL2 credential service provider by the Kantara Initiative. In addition to helping people control their credentials and data, the company's "No Identity Left Behind" initiative strives to expand digital access and inclusion for all people. The company offers multiple pathways to identity verification – online self-serve, live video chat agents, and in person. ID.me is passionate about building a robust identity network that does not compromise access for traditionally underserved groups.

ID.me has received numerous awards including Deloitte's 2023 Technology Fast 500, Washington Business Journal's Fastest Growing Companies, Entrepreneur Magazine's 100 Brilliant Companies and Wall Street Journal's Startup of the Year finalist. In recent quarters, ID.me announced it raised $132 million in Series D funding, led by Viking Global Investors with participation from CapitalG, Morgan Stanley Counterpoint, FTV Capital, PSP Growth, Auctus Investment Group, Moonshots Capital, and Scout Ventures. ID.me's most recent round brings the total investment in ID.me to over $275 million since its founding in 2010.

Role Overview

ID.me is looking for a Principal Security Engineer to add to our growing security team. If you love innovation, here's your chance to make a career of it by advancing the digital identity ecosystem.

We are seeking a talented Principal Security Engineer who enjoys the challenges of combining software and systems engineering to design, build, run, and automate distributed, fault-tolerant security solutions at scale. You will ensure that our security controls are effective and efficient and minimize friction for end users.

The Principal Security Engineer will also have the opportunity to provide thought leadership, research, and innovation on a broad scale.

This is an onsite position based in our Mountain View, CA office.

Responsibilities
  • Exercise a longer-term, more strategic outlook, influencing people within team, within Security, and within peer teams
  • Set technology direction and roadmap for development and continuous improvement of security controls
  • Lead system and solution design for security controls across the team and ensure design is well-understood and documented
  • Optimize security systems for the future and not just for an immediate need or benefit
  • Identify and drive opportunities to improve control effectiveness and efficiency and reduce friction for end users
  • Ensure security controls are optimized for ease of use by both security operators and end users
  • Ensure security controls are replaceable with the least amount of effort necessary
  • Dig deep into complex problems either lacking a clear approach or with a high degree of execution risk and find an appropriate path forward
  • Maintain many of the essential cross-team and cross-functional relationships necessary for the team's success
  • Be a role model for the team and the security organization and shape the culture
  • Help, teach, and mentor the less experienced engineers on the team
  • Define standards and best practices for the team and the security organization
  • Improve the quality of the output of the team - code, technical documentation, operational processes
Ideal Qualifications

The qualifications below are ideal, but not all are required. We encourage candidates to apply if they satisfy some, but not all of the qualifications.

  • 12+ years of experience in security engineering, systems engineering, software engineering, or SRE roles
  • 7+ years experience engineering, running, and automating security controls
  • Strong background with securing public cloud technologies, preferably GCP and AWS
  • Strong understanding of cloud security and infrastructure security best practices
  • Experience with security data lakes or SIEM solutions (e.g. Chronicle, Splunk, ElasticSearch)
  • Experience with data security, network security, and zero trust access solutions
  • Experience with authentication, authorization, and access control technologies (e.g. IDPs like Okta, AWS/GCP IAM, OIDC, OAuth, etc.)
  • Experience in Linux/Unix administration and solid networking knowledge
  • Experience in scripting or software development (i.e. Python, Ruby, Go)
  • Experience with infrastructure-as-code (e.g. Terraform, Ansible, etc.)
  • The ability to take a systematic approach to analyzing, troubleshooting, and diagnosing system problems to identify, locate, resolve, and repair problems
  • Possess a breadth of engineering skills with an interest in service reliability, automation, monitoring, and capacity planning

Bonus Experience

  • Experience with CI/CD practices and platform tools (Jenkins, CircleCI, Github etc)
  • Experience with Information Security Compliance, (SOC, FedRAMP, ISO, etc)
  • Industry security certifications, such as GCIH/ECIH, Security+, or related

Ideal candidate will thrive in the following culture:

  • Must have an obsession for building quality products
  • Ability to thrive when there are changing priorities and shifting of gears
