The opportunity

The Zalando Identity & Access Management (IAM) Platform is responsible for the day-to-day security of Zalando systems and the various corresponding identities, including those representing our approx. 20 million active customers as well as our ~1.6k developers and their ~1k applications.

As an IAM software engineer for the Zalando IAM Platform team you will collaboratively and purposely extend and operate our most critical core infrastructure components. You will rethink, build and operate multi-tenant IAM solutions based on OAuth 2.0 and SAML 2.0 protocols for our vastly growing eCommerce business and help our engineering teams to integrate.

About you

·  You wonder how authentication and authorization in the web will look like in future.
·  You understand the extreme criticality of identity and access management.
·  You are not afraid to read, understand and responsibly question RFCs, yet grasp their true value.
·  You care for security in the software you write and systems you operate.
·  You wonder if they can be made to work differently long after others have stopped reading the specification.
·  You believe in clean code and feel comfortable with regular code reviews.
·  You understand that legacy code is the work you did yesterday.
·  You feel comfortable working in international teams.
·  You are able and eager to find highly-available, customer-oriented solutions to mitigate down-times and possible integration issues in existing and proposed systems.
·  You are willing to improve yourself, learn what you don’t know yet and help others in doing so.
·  You respect other’s opinions even if you don’t agree.

Key Focus Areas

·  Support an ever changing technology infrastructure with the vision to enable identity within systems by providing them with a trusted distributed IAM as a service.
·  Design, develop, test and defend existing and future IAM systems in a vastly growing, multi-tenant environment.
·  Partner with Zalando engineering teams to help them enhance their IAM integration.

Skills and Experience

·  You have sound programming background, mostly in web applications.
·  Experience in Java and/ or Golang would be a plus.
·  You understand the benefit of automated tests and actively embrace it.
·  You have experience operating in sensitive production environments.
·  You are comfortable discussing not just IAM impact, risks, vulnerabilities and threats but also explain basic OAuth 2.0 to a variety of audiences.

What you can expect from us

·  One-month mentoring program
·  Internal tech talks, skills-building courses and Practice Leads who help you achieve mastery
·  Personal branding support: From preparing tech talks and blog posts to networking with industry leaders
·  Community: hack weeks, movie nights, coder dojos, +70 self-organized tech guilds  and more
·  Competitive salary
·  40% Zalando shopping discount and commuter discount
·  Relocation assistance for internationals
