BASE SALARY$193k – $274k+ Equity

Hadrian's API Platform is how the outside world connects to our manufacturing systems. Every partner integration, every internal service, and every factory floor system that touches that platform depends on one thing being right: identity. Who is allowed in, what they can do, and how credentials are managed across a complex, multi-cloud, physically distributed environment.

As Staff Software Engineer, Identity and Access Management, you will build the security foundation that the API Platform is built on. You will own authentication, authorization, and credential automation across cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes workloads, and factory floor systems — and you will work in close partnership with the API Platform PM to ensure that IAM capabilities are surfaced as first-class developer experiences, not bolted-on compliance requirements.

This is not a supporting role. IAM is a product pillar here. You will own the technical layer end to end, set the direction for how it scales, and help define what secure-by-default looks like across everything Hadrian builds.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

  • Design and implement scalable authentication and authorization systems covering both human operators and machine identities across cloud and factory floor environments — serving as the security foundation for the API Platform
  • Own Hadrian's authentication stack: SSO, MFA, OIDC/SAML integrations, and service-to-service auth across AWS, GCP, and future cloud environments
  • Build fine-grained access control systems (RBAC/ABAC/ReBAC) that scale across internal engineering teams, factory systems, and external API partners
  • Develop frameworks, APIs, and CLI tools that automate credential provisioning, rotation, and policy enforcement for both internal teams and external API consumers
  • Build identity and access models for machine-to-machine communication across factory floor systems, Kubernetes workloads, and cloud services
  • Partner with Security to ensure IAM systems meet compliance and audit requirements; troubleshoot complex identity and access issues across distributed systems
  • Work with the API Platform PM to define how
