MEET THE TEAM BEHIND THIS JOURNEY DeepL is not just a translation tool; we are building the Operating System for Global Communication. We are the rare AI company that builds the entire stack in-house: from training next-gen LLMs on our own NVIDIA DGX SuperPODs to delivering real-time Language AI to over 300 million users and 200,000+ businesses globally. The Identity and Access Management team owns DeepL's full identity stack: organisation, group, account, consent and session management, SSO federation, SCIM provisioning, and the OIDC provider, for both internal and external users. It is the foundation every DeepL product relies on to authenticate and authorise users securely and at scale. When identity is unavailable, no one can log in, so reliability and performance sit at the heart of everything the team does. We don't hire engineers to simply maintain legacy endpoints or close Jira tickets. We hire Missionaries who understand that a perfect AI model is useless if a Global Enterprise can't provision it securely to 50,000 employees. You will contribute across the Identity services, shipping features that create delightful, frictionless experiences for both external customers and internal engineering teams. YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES - Ship Features, Not Just Code: You will build well-scoped features from first commit to production. You won't just write functions in isolation; you will check that your code solves the actual user problem, works in production, and is covered by solid tests. - Collaborate to Raise the Bar: You will work closely with teammates across Identity and adjacent teams, and learn from them. You will take part in code reviews and design discussions, and follow and help improve our shared standards. You ask for help early, and you speak up with questions or ideas when you think there is a better way. - Leverage Modern Tooling: You will use AI-assisted tools (like Copilot and Claude) to handle boilerplate and refactoring, allowing you to focus on logic and product value. We value engineers who use the best tools to ship faster. - Build for Quality: You will write well-tested, production-ready code that your team (and your future self) will thank you for. You understand that "speed" doesn't mean "sloppy"—it means building reliable software that doesn't break at 2am. You will participate in incident response, learn from postmortems, and help the team raise the bar on code quality and operational health. QUALITIES WE LOOK FOR - Ownership and Reliability: You take responsibility for what you ship. You write tests, monitor your code in production, and follow through when things go wrong. You're proactive about flagging issues and asking for help when you need it, and you treat each incident as an opportunity to learn. - Strong Engineering Fundamentals: You have a solid grasp of data structures, algorithms, and clean coding principles. You can take a complex logic problem and break it down into small, solvable pieces. You are curious about what it takes to build and operate reliable, high throughput services, and keen to learn this hands-on. - Adaptability: You have a good foundation in backend development and server-side systems. Our stack relies on C#/.NET Core, Cassandra, gRPC, and Kubernetes. We don't expect you to be an expert in all of them today, but we expect you to be willing to jump in and learn whatever tool gets the job done. - Enterprise Domain Curiosity: You are interested in the hard problems of B2B SaaS Identity - authentication (SSO/OIDC), authorization, and requirements such as security and auditing. You understand that these aren't "boring details"; they are the pillars of trust for enterprise clients . - AI-Native Velocity: You leverage AI-powered tools (like GitHub Copilot or Claude) to accelerate your velocity and eliminate repetitive toil. You use AI for boilerplate code, test generation, and debugging, allowing you to focus your cognitive energy on high-value architectural decisions and complex problem-solving. What we offer - Diverse and internationally distributed team: joining our team means becoming part of a large, global community with people of more than 90
