We're building the first Identity Acceptance Network, the "Visa for ID." Humanity is editing genes, starting space tourism, and verging on artificial general intelligence. Meanwhile, identity verification is still done by taking pictures of plastic cards.
Role - Senior Product Engineer (#5 on the team; ~20% of engineering capacity). High ownership, product-minded, backend and systems leaning. - This is not a ticket-churning role. You should want to understand the competitive landscape, listen in on customer calls, bring engineering insight to product discussions, and own features end-to-end. - You should be a Barrel: someone who can take on ambiguous work, pull together the right context, make tradeoffs explicit, and drive without needing to be told every next step. Revenue is surging, we need judgement to help shape the product. - Strong backend/platform experience; generalist enough to move up/down the stack when the product needs it. - You care deeply about user privacy and data security. We work on identity. Sloppiness here is not an option.
Stack & ways of working - .NET (C#) backend, React + TypeScript frontend, Azure Container Apps, Azure SQL/Storage, Bicep IaC, GitHub CI/CD. - Remote-first; North America (CT +/- 2) or Europe (CET +/- 1). Strong async work habits; 4 hrs/week of scheduled meetings on average; pairing/huddles when useful. - We use AI aggressively and prudently. You'll have a large token budget, but we expect strong judgment around the risks.
Comp & apply
- Salary is set by our compensation philosophy, with meaningful equity. We discuss compensation early so neither side wastes time.

If you're in a workable timezone and excited about identity infrastructure, I'd love to talk.

We'll address this in our first orientation call with a candidate to make sure we're in the same ball park of ranges.
But point taken, we'll look into if we can make some range indications available. For now, if you lookup compensation ranges for companies in our peer group and your geography it should match, but very happy to discuss your specific during a call.
We’re building the first Identity Acceptance Network—the “Visa for ID.” Humanity is editing genes, starting space tourism and working on artificial intelligence. Meanwhile, identity verification is still done by taking pictures of plastic cards . We’re bringing identity into this new age, where trust is essential and becoming more so every day with AI. We enable accepting digital IDs that users already have (mDLs, BankIDs, reusable IDs) and verify users ~10x faster across 40+ networks covering 500M+ people.

But no way to find out if there’s any data sent to your servers etc, unless I’m missing some links?
Waterfall in software was continuously changing those fundamental parts. You'd be fine tuning the irrigation and needed to destruct the whole bridge because some new requirements came up. That's where the anti-Gantt and "bad waterfall" comes from, the reality is the software world as a whole moves way quicker and requirements are way more malleable, subjective than building a bridge.
I was parsing a document recently, 10-ish questions for 1 document, would make things expensive.
Might be what’s needed but not ideal.
Might not need JSON but whatever format it outputs, it needs to be reliable.
The NEM 3 policy reduces a lot what you get paid unless you contribute back during the peak use hours, they say it's "avoided cost" pricing. On the surface it seems fair, you're paying for more than generation when you use energy so you generating and contributing back during huge surplus isn't as valuable as you using during night time.
