We are ramping up a new initiative to build a platform service that will allow our applications to define policies, make decisions, and react to changes based on a combination of historical and near real-time data in our Identity Graph. We’re designing for many millions of identities and, in some cases, low millisecond response times, to make critical access decisions. In a typical day you’ll be working in Golang to deliver on the vision for the policy engine. You’ll design and develop microservices collaborating with product management, UI, UX, test, and architects both within the UK teams and around the world. Sometimes you’ll be working with specialists, like the Data Science Team when working on AI-related features. In 90 days, you’d be on-boarded and landing work in collaboration with the tech lead. In 6 months, you’d be operating with a high degree of autonomy to deliver on the team goals. In 1 year, you’d be a Subject Matter Expert able to run projects as the team grows.
