Engineering Manager role at leading IAM development using Go in a remote setting within the US, supporting a life insurance technology platform.
О компании
- The Engineering team is responsible for all technology for and the Platform. We serve employees, consumers, and enterprise customers. In addition to building software, we integrate and manage many third-party products used by employees and as part of the platform. Our major functional teams are product engineering, infrastructure, IT, data & analytics, and program management. Engineering works closely with product management and design to define and prioritize the product roadmap.
Обязанности
- As the Engineering Manager for the IAM team, you will lead a team of Software Engineers building the identity and access management foundation behind our digital life insurance enrollment experience. You will spend roughly 20% of your time writing production code, and that capacity is accounted for in team planning. The rest of your time goes to leading the team, shaping architecture, and partnering with Product Managers, Designers, and our enterprise partners. Our system runs on Kubernetes in Google Cloud Platform and is composed of several microservices written in Go that integrate using gRPC, REST, and async messaging patterns. You will share responsibility for operating those workloads.
- Your first major initiative is IAM Platform Scalability: building an identity foundation that lets new enterprise customers onboard without engineering intervention, while meeting enterprise security and compliance requirements.
- This role reports to the Director of Engineering and is open to remote candidates within the United States. #LI-Remote

- Stay in the code and actively participate in system design and architecture decisions
- Review pull requests regularly, with feedback that raises the bar on code quality
- Own your team's quality standards: test coverage, documentation, code review practice, and the automation and quality gates that keep defects out of production
- Debug and troubleshoot alongside your engineers, and lead the team through hard diagnostic work
- Identify technical debt, build a remediation plan for it, and advocate for the time to do it
- Lead the evolution of our authorization model to support multi-tenant enterprise customers at scale

- Build automated user provisioning and de-provisioning so partner onboarding does not require engineering work
- Solve for partner-specific requirements such as biometric re-authentication, extended session lifetimes, layered access policies, and regulatory audit needs
- The IAM team shares a weekly on-call rotation covering authentication and authorization services, and this role takes a regular turn in it alongside the engineers on the team. We treat rotation health as a first class part of the job: right sized alerting, current runbooks, and following through on the operational fixes that keep the load predictable.

- Set a technical north star for IAM that your team can make decisions against, and execute toward it incrementally rather than in one big bet
- Translate company strategy into team-level work through RFCs, PRD input, and well-scoped tickets
- Communicate status, progress, and risk to stakeholders early and transparently, and escalate with a proposed solution attached
- Explain technical concepts clearly to non-technical audiences, including senior leadership and external partners
- Connect your team's work to business outcomes and make cost and benefit trade-offs explicit
