Agent guide: [/agents.md](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/agents.md). --- # Staff Software Engineer, Enterprise Platform - **Company:** Discord Inc. - **Location:** United States - **Experience:** Expert - **Salary:** $248,000.0 - $279,000.0 - **Contract:** Permanent contract - **Skills:** Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), Artificial Intelligence, Continuous Integration, Identity and Access Management, Python (Programming Language), OAuth, OpenID, Role-Based Access Control, Software Deployment, TypeScript, Rust (Programming Language), Okta, Microsoft InTune, Infrastructure Automation Frameworks, Production Code, Casper Suite, Api Design, Discord, Terraform, Software Version Control - **Published:** August 3, 2026 - **Apply:** https://www.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=1e560e0c8651e52f ## About the Role Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC): Build deployment pipelines and provisioning patterns that let internal systems be built and changed safely, establishing CI/CD standards. Build the self-service layer: Design and ship the APIs, CLIs, and portals that compose primitives into paved paths, like a new hire's first day, where software access and group memberships land in one automated, auditable flow. Set the foundation: Define the technical direction and architecture for the discipline, writing the RFCs and documentation that future hires will build on. What You Should Have 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. This is not a systems admin role. 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. You have built self-service tooling that people chose to adopt. Comfort with ambiguity and a founder's temperament; energized by building from scratch. Bonus Points Hands-on experience with Okta, Jamf, or Intune. Experience with identity and access governance for non-human, workload, or AI-agent principals. Background at a high-growth consumer tech company with a highly technical employee base. The US base salary range for this full-time position is $248,000 to $279,000 + equity + benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role and level. Within the range, individual pay is determined by additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training. Please note that the compensation details listed in US role postings reflect the base salary only, and do not include ## Description self-service software. Your job is to replace manual consoles and tickets with a platform of reusable primitives, building blocks like "provision a device" or "push an IAM policy or app integration through code," exposed through clean APIs and self-service portals. As a code-forward Staff engineer, you will design abstractions that hide the messy reality of Okta, Jamf, and Terraform (our identity, device management, and infrastructure-as-code tools) behind interfaces people actually want to use, operating with a platform-as-a-product mindset. What You'll Do Manage the device fleet as code: Move device configuration off consoles and into versioned, API-driven infrastructure for endpoint management and hardware provisioning. Automate the identity layer: Manage identity systems and their connections to downstream apps as code, from SSO and SCIM integrations to account workflows, so changes ship through version control and CI/CD instead of an admin console.
