We are excited to welcome a Staff Developer to join the Authentication Experience team here at 1Password.

In this critical role, you'll be instrumental in shaping the architecture, evolution, and experience of our authentication systems within 1Password. Your leadership will directly influence our strategic direction, maintaining alignment with our overarching business goals while pioneering advanced authentication technologies and best practices in coding, testing, and deployment.

This role is not just about technical expertise; it's about collaboration, creativity, and the willingness to learn and grow together. You will play a key role in shaping the architecture and evolution of our authentication systems, aligning our business goals with future technologies and relentless improvement.

The Authentication Experience team focuses on the overall experience that surrounds signing in to and unlocking 1Password. This is the first point of entry into the 1Password apps across the board. Our focus is on integrating tightly with our authentication stack to make this a seamless and delightful experience for our customers, which include both business and consumer end users.

Our team supports back-end services written in Go, web-based clients written in TypeScript, and desktop, mobile, and browser extension client apps built around a common Rust core, all of which you will work with at some point.
