A technology company

Overview

As the founding engineering hire for Discord's Enterprise Technology org, you will define the discipline, set the technical foundation, and build the platform that lets internal systems scale. Your job is to turn enterprise infrastructure into self-service software by replacing manual consoles and tickets with reusable primitives.

About A technology company

Discord has a highly engaged community of millions of daily active users who use the platform for many different reasons, but there’s one thing that nearly everyone does: play video games. Discord plays a uniquely important role in the future of gaming, and we are focused on making it easier and more fun for people to hang out before, during, and a

Requirements & Eligibility

• 6+ years building and operating production software and systems at a technology company, with a track record of owning ambiguous projects end to end.
• Strong software engineering fundamentals. You write production code (we lean on Python, TypeScript and Rust), and design, test, and ship it.
• Deep, hands-on IAM experience (SSO, SCIM, OAuth/OIDC, RBAC) and fluency with infrastructure as code (Terraform) and CI/CD.
• Experience treating endpoint and fleet management as an API-driven engineering surface at scale.
• A platform-as-a-product mindset with experience building self-service tooling that people chose to adopt.
• Comfort with ambiguity and a founder's temperament; energized by building from scratch.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage the device fleet as code by moving device configuration off consoles and into versioned, API-driven infrastructure for endpoint management and hardware provisioning.
• Automate the identity layer by managing identity systems and their connections to downstream apps as code, from SSO and SCIM integrations to account workflows.
• Own app delivery and Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) by building deployment pipelines and provisioning patterns that let internal systems be built and changed safely.
• Build the self-service layer by designing and shipping APIs, CLIs, and portals that compose primitives into paved paths.
• Set the foundation by defining the technical direction and architecture for the discipline, writing the RFCs and documentation that future hires will build on.
