Senior technical field authority for agent identity setting reference architecture and handling strategic deployments.

Обязанности

You are the most senior technical field authority for agent identity at . Where a Senior FDE owns the outcome inside one account, you own the patterns that every account and every FDE inherits. You take the hardest and most strategic deployments yourself, set the reference architecture the team builds from, and turn what the field learns into the direction the product takes.
You still write code. You also multiply the people around you, and you are the person product and engineering leadership call when an agent identity problem has no precedent.
Own the reference architecture. Define the canonical agent identity, delegation, audit, and kill-switch patterns that Senior FDEs deploy across the portfolio, and keep them current as the standards and the product move.
Lead the hardest accounts. Personally own the most strategic, regulated, or technically novel deployments, the ones where there is no playbook yet.
Raise the technical bar. Review other FDEs’ architectures, coach senior customer engineers and your own team, and set the standard for what good looks like in the field.
Shape the roadmap. Synthesize patterns across every account into a clear point of view, and work directly with product and engineering leadership to prioritize what ships next.
Represent as a technical authority. Brief CISO, CIO, and Chief AI Officer audiences, contribute to the standards and frameworks shaping agent identity, and carry the external technical voice.
Resolve what others cannot. Step into the hardest technical and political situations across accounts and find the path forward.
Set the standard for evals and observability. Define how the team measures authorization latency, scope sprawl, delegation anomalies, audit completeness, and kill-switch verification, so it scales beyond any single customer.
Build the team’s leverage. Turn recurring field work into reusable modules, internal tooling, and enablement so the whole FDE function moves faster.

secures access for 20,000 organizations and billions of users. for AI Agents extends that work to the agentic shift. Deploying an AI agent is not like deploying traditional software. You are putting professional work output into production, and it needs deep integration, continuous tuning, and change management. Every agent needs an identity, a scope, an audit trail, and a way to be shut down when it goes wrong. Most enterprises have not built this yet. We are.
We hire builders who see the cracks in enterprise agent identity that everyone else has learned to live with.
