🩸 Staff Platform Security Engineer (IAM) — Stealth Crypto Infra Expansion 💎
New York | San Francisco | Hybrid (2 days onsite)

This isn’t another “security job.”
It’s a chance to design the trust fabric for a next-gen crypto / Web3 platform operating at global scale —

where billions in assets and transactions flow through systems you secure.

We’re quietly building the backbone of digital finance — a hardened, zero-trust identity and access layer that powers trading, custody, and decentralized innovation.
Your code will decide who gets in and what they can do.

What You’ll Do

• Build and operate IAM & auth services in Python or Go — production-grade code only, no paper architecture.
• Design multi-IdP solutions with Okta, OIDC, SAML, OAuth2 — identity as code for workforce and workload access.
• Engineer PKI systems and certificate lifecycles for service auth at scale.
• Create secrets management and zero-knowledge platforms with rotation automation and audit built in.
• Partner with Infra & App teams to embed secure-by-default patterns across cloud & on-prem.
• Live the on-call rotation with other security heavyweights protecting a 24/7 global environment.

What You Bring

• Strong Python or Go development chops (you’ve shipped real services, not scripts).
• Deep understanding of auth protocols (OAuth2, OIDC, SAML, WebAuthn).
• Experience with PKI, Vault or similar secret stores, AWS IAM & STS, Terraform, and Zero-Trust design.
• Comfort owning design → deployment → incident response for critical security systems.
• (Bonus) Okta / Auth0 / SPIFFE / HSM experience or open-source identity contributions.
