Job description

Are you a software engineer with a passion for authentication and authorization? Are you excited about things like identity and access management (IAM), permissions, access tokens, multi-factor authentication (MFA) and single sign-on (SSO)? Do you thrive on tackling complex technical challenges and building scalable systems? If this sounds like you, Pleo needs your expertise!

We are about to create a dedicated auth team that rethinks and renews how authentication and authorization are handled in Pleo with the goal to ensure the security and integrity of our systems. We intend to follow open industry standards and use third party providers. You’ll be working closely with product teams to make auth as easy to use as possible, but also with platform teams like Backend Core that provide common libraries and internal frameworks as well as with the Security team.

You know your way around:

Cloud environments / distributed systems / microservices (AWS, Google Cloud, Kubernetes)
Architecting scalable solutions and API design
Authentication & authorisation for APIs
Server-side languages (we mainly use Kotlin and TypeScript)
Testing frameworks, observability, and monitoring
DevOps culture and tools (GitHub Actions, Gradle, Terraform)
Relational databases (e.g. PostgreSQL)
Optional but beneficial: 3rd party authentication providers

Your colleagues would say you are:

Work in English with ease (it's our company language)
Never stop being curious and love learning about new languages/ frameworks/ working styles
Have experience solving complex technical challenges at scale
Ensure a high bar for quality and reliability within your team
Advocate for a more thorough code review process than a quick scroll to the bottom of the page and a “LGTM!”
You don’t just write code; you help to design the overall solution
Able to raise and describe technical debt faced by your team. And then able to propose a solution or path forward.

Why join us?

Working at Pleo means you're working on something very exciting: the future of work. Our mission is to help every company go beyond the books. Pleo itself means ‘more than you’d expect’, and it’s been the secret to our success over the last 8 years. So it’s only fitting that we’d pass this philosophy onto our customers to help them make the most of their finances.

We think company spending should be delegated to all employees and teams, that it should be as automated as possible, and that it should drive a culture of responsible spending. Finance teams shouldn’t be siloed from the rest of the organisation – they should work in unity with marketing, sales, IT and everyone else.

Speaking of working in unity, our values tell the story of how we work at Pleo. We have four core values, the first of which is ‘champion the customer’, which means we address real pain points that businesses face. Next up is ‘succeed as a team’, which highlights how our strength lies in our diversity and trust in each other. We also ‘make it happen’ by taking bold decisions and following through to deliver results. Last but not least, we ‘build to scale’, creating lasting solutions that address today’s challenges and anticipate tomorrow’s needs.

So, in a nutshell, that's Pleo. Today we are a 850+ team, from over 100 nations, sitting in our Copenhagen HQ, London, Stockholm, Berlin, Madrid, Montreal and Lisbon offices —and quite a few full-time remotes in 35 other countries! Being HQ'd out of Copenhagen means we're inspired by things like a good work-life balance. If you don't work in the office with us, we'll help you set up the best remote setup possible and make sure you still have time to connect with your team.
