Software Engineer, Product Development

C1 is the first AI-native identity security platform that protects every identity: human, non-human, and AI. With powerful automation, platform-level AI, and out-of-the-box connectors, it centralizes access visibility, enforces fine-grained controls, enables just-in-time access, and automates user access reviews across all apps. It’s easy to use, quick to deploy, and trusted by enterprises like DigitalOcean, Instacart, Ramp, and Zscaler.
As a Software Engineer at C1, you’ll build the features, interfaces, and systems that make identity governance secure, intuitive, and fast. You’ll work across the stack — from backend APIs to frontend components — owning the delivery of product experiences end-to-end. You’ll collaborate closely with Product, Design, and other engineers to turn complex workflows into beautifully simple solutions that help customers manage access and automate compliance with confidence.

This is a high-ownership role: you’ll ship production-quality code, participate in technical design, and help shape how C1’s products evolve as we scale. 

• Design, build, and ship customer-facing features across the full stack — from backend APIs and data models in Go, to frontend UI in React.

• Collaborate with Product and Design to translate requirements into elegant, performant implementations.

• Write reliable, maintainable code and contribute to a culture of quality through thoughtful testing and code review.

• Help define and improve patterns, frameworks, and developer experience across our frontend and backend systems.

• Diagnose and resolve complex issues in production, ensuring high reliability and great user experiences.

• Participate in architectural discussions and help shape how we scale our product and systems.

• Partner closely with other teams (SRE, Security, and FDE) to ensure features are secure, observable, and resilient in production.

• Contribute to a strong engineering culture of collaboration, accountability, and continuous improvement.

• You’re a strong product-minded engineer who takes pride in delivering delightful user experiences.

• You have solid experience in a modern frontend framework (React, TypeScript) and in backend development (Go, Node.js, or similar).

• You’re comfortable designing APIs and working across service boundaries.

• You enjoy thinking about the full lifecycle of a feature — from design and implementation to deployment and monitoring.

• You communicate clearly and thrive in a collaborative environment where priorities shift quickly.

• You enjoy balancing velocity and quality, knowing when to iterate fast and when to invest in long-term maintainability.

• You embody C1’s values: Earn the Customer’s Trust, Embrace Change, Practice Compassionate Candor, and Be the Conductor.
  

• You’ve built complex, data-rich web applications or admin consoles for SaaS products.

• You have experience with gRPC or similar API technologies.

• You’ve worked with cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP), CI/CD pipelines, and observability tooling.

• You have experience with identity systems, authentication flows, or access management concepts.

• You’ve contributed to design systems or component libraries shared across multiple products.

• You’ve operated in a high-growth startup environment and enjoy shaping teams as much as product.
