About the Team:
The User Management team owns the full identity lifecycle at AlphaSense — from creating and provisioning users, through managing their identities, to authenticating who they are and authorizing what they can do in the system. Our work spans three core domains:
We are a product platform team, not a product team: we build the identity and access infrastructure that other engineering teams build on top of, rather than shipping user-facing features ourselves. We also act as a security guardrail for AlphaSense, since identity and access sit at the center of how the platform stays secure.
The team is well-established and senior, based in Helsinki, Finland, and pushing deliberately toward a true platform model — scaling our authentication and authorization systems so they can be safely self-served by teams across the company.
About the Role:
This is a Senior Engineer role on the team that manages identity and access for AlphaSense's entire, and constantly growing, customer base, and that nearly every product engineering team depends on for user and entitlement data. You'll work across all three pillars of identity: creating and managing users, authenticating them, and authorizing what they can do — designing systems built to scale with a constantly growing number of users. Security is core to this role, not adjacent to it — you'll work closely with our security teams to make sure what we build is secure by design, in an environment governed by SOC2 and GDPR.
We're looking for a strong, self-sufficient engineer with solid experience building and operating identity, authentication, or authorization platforms at scale, ideally in a platform/product-platform engineering context. You can take deep technical ownership of complex problems and execute independently, while contributing ideas and input into our broader roadmap alongside the rest of the team. You're genuinely interested in security, comfortable partnering closely with security teams on secure-by-design systems, and ready to work closely, day-to-day, with the rest of the team here in Helsinki.
Who You are:
[Nice to Have]
What You'll Do:
This role spans all three pillars of our identity platform in equal measure — this is not an authorization-only or authentication-only role.
