## Description

1Password is growing, having surpassed $500M in ARR, and is continuing to accelerate. We're looking for a Staff Developer to join our Authentication Enablement team. The team is responsible for helping people, families, and businesses unlock 1Password and access their information safely and simply, with authentication that stays in the background.

As a Staff Developer, you'll help move authentication out of the monolith and into an independent service with its own data, so sign-in can scale and stay available independently of the rest of the platform. You'll help set the technical direction for the migration and for new authentication services, as 1Password extends trusted access to AI agents.

The ideal candidate has significant experience building and operating backend services, deep expertise with distributed systems and data, strong experience designing asynchronous workflows, and working knowledge of authentication and authorization technologies.

In this role, you'll:

- Lead a portion of the authentication service's roadmap for the next 12 months

- Own significant designs in the remaining migration

- Make and document the team's technical decisions

- Set the team's standards for testing, observability, and safe rollout

- Build platform pieces the service needs

- Partner with the Authorization, Identity Services, and Security teams

- Participate in the 24/7 on-call rotation for tier-one services

We offer a competitive salary, benefits program, and equity grant. For USA-based roles, the annual base salary is between $192,000 USD and $278,000 USD. For Canada-based roles, the annual base salary is between $167,000 CAD and $242,000 CAD.

At 1Password, we prioritize collaboration, clear and transparent communication, receptiveness to feedback, and alignment with our core values: keep it simple, lead with honesty, and put people first.
