Description

  • Design and build platform services for authentication, authorization, and audit across ClickHouse Cloud.
  • Develop a unified RBAC/ReBAC service, token issuance, session handling, and embedded SDKs for product teams.
  • Model permissions and access-control primitives such as resources, roles, relationships, and policies across multiple ClickHouse products.
  • Implement and own protocol-level integrations for SAML, SCIM, OIDC, OAuth2, and MFA/passwordless authentication flows.
  • Build telemetry pipelines for audit and authorization decisions so access events are observable and queryable by customers.
  • Partner with product engineering teams to migrate product-specific authentication implementations onto the shared platform.
  • Design APIs that make adoption of the shared auth platform straightforward for other engineers.
  • Carry platform on-call duties and own production reliability for critical-path systems.

Requirements

  • 4+ years of experience building production backend systems at scale.
  • Comfort with at least one systems language such as Go, Rust, or C++.
  • Comfort with at least one application language such as TypeScript or Python.
  • Hands-on experience designing and implementing authentication or authorization services.
  • Experience building a token issuer, OIDC or OAuth2 provider, policy engine, permissions model, or FGA/ReBAC system.
  • Working knowledge of SAML, SCIM, OIDC, and OAuth2 at the protocol level.
  • Experience designing APIs and SDKs that other engineers depend on.
  • Experience operating distributed systems at scale, including caching, consistency tradeoffs, and multi-region concerns.
  • Familiarity with identity vendors such as Auth0, WorkOS, or AWS/GCP/Azure IAM.
  • Strong production debugging instincts and a high bar for developer-friendly systems.
  • Experience with Zanzibar-style authorization systems, OpenFGA, SpiceDB, or Cedar is a plus.
  • Experience designing multi-tenant permission models with custom roles, hierarchies, delegation, and ABAC attributes is a plus.
  • Experience shipping internal SDKs that are actually adopted across an organization is a plus.

Benefits

  • Typical starting salary of $141,000–$208,000 USD in the United States.
  • Typical starting salary of $157,000–$232,000 USD in US premium markets.
  • Remote-friendly, globally distributed work environment operating in over 20 countries.
  • Employer contributions toward healthcare.

  • Flexible time off in the US and generous leave entitlement in other countries.
  • $500 home office setup stipend for remote employees.
