## Job description

Stytch is the platform for user authentication and anti-fraud tooling. We make it simple for developers to build complex authentication flows in minutes.

We’re looking for an experienced Solutions Engineer who thrives on educating, problem-solving, and building relationships with developers at industry leading companies. In this role, you will be responsible for understanding the needs of our customers, communicating solution designs, and leading technical evaluations. Throughout that path, you’ll be serving as the auth subject matter expert with our customer’s engineering team to drive a smooth and speedy evaluation.

This is a hybrid, full-time position based in the SF Bay Area. We aren’t looking for someone to be in-office 5 days per week, but are looking for someone who is excited to collaborate in-person on a weekly basis (2-3 days per week in-office).

## WHAT EXCITES YOU

- A collaborative environment, working with prospective customers and internal teams to push our product forward
- Serving as a confident technical resource and voice for our customers
- Learning — our product suite and problem space is continually evolving, and staying on top of those changes is critical to success
- Building strong relationships with prospective customers to ensure a successful evaluation

## WHAT EXCITES US

- Demonstrated ability to communicate credibly and effectively at all levels; everyone from a CTO to a software engineer
- Grit — tenacity, curiosity, and drive to find the solution that works for customers and collaborate closely with engineering and product to give feedback and push for new features when needed
- Ability to read and write code – our product and customers are highly technical and we often share example apps and code snippets to help them understand our product
- Familiarity with modern web services and APIs. Experience with authentication protocols (SAML/OAuth), MFA, IdP is a bonus
- Enthusiasm to work in a high-growth environment and to help build processes and tools as needed

## WANT YOU’LL DO

- Lead technical customer conversations to identify, qualify and address customers’ authentication use cases, requirements and constraints
- Collaborate with the sales team to demonstrate the business and technical value of Stytch
- Lead technical demos and POCs of Stytch’s authentication platform
- Codify learnings from customer deployments into repeatable implementation methodologies and playbooks
- Develop technical domain expertise of authentication and authorization concepts and policies such as SAML, OIDC, and OAuth
- Partner with our Product organization to help shape our roadmap based on prospect and customer feedback, challenges and growth drivers

Expected on-target earnings (OTE) for this position is between $140,000 - $180,000 with a base/variable split of 80%/20%. The anticipated OTE range is not inclusive of full benefits including equity, health care insurance, time off, paid parental leave, etc. This base salary is accurate based on information at the time of posting. Actual compensation for hired candidates will be determined using a number of factors including experience, skills, and qualifications.

We're looking to hire a GREAT team and that means hiring people who are highly empathetic, ambitious, and excited about building the future of user authentication. You should feel empowered to apply for this role even if your experience doesn't exactly match up to our job description (our job descriptions are directional and not perfect recipes for exactly what we need).

We are committed to building a diverse, inclusive, and equitable workspace where everyone (regardless of age, education, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, or any personal characteristics) feels like they belong. We look forward to hearing from you!

## Company Overview

- **Headquarters**: San Francisco, California, United States
- **Founded**: 2020
- **Founders**: Julianna Lamb (Co-Founder & CTO), Reed McGinley-Stempel (Co-Founder & CEO)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Identity & Access Management (IAM), Authentication Infrastructure, Cybersecurity
- **Target customers**: B2B – Developers, engineering teams, and product organizations building web and mobile applications; also serves enterprise customers with complex auth requirements
- **Mission or purpose**: “To keep the internet honest” by helping developers protect their applications and make authentication simple and scalable, so teams can stay focused on building differentiated products.

## Products & Services
- **[Stytch Authentication Platform]**: A full suite of passwordless solutions (passkeys, magic links, SMS/email OTP) and password-based auth, plus SDKs, pre-built UI components, and headless APIs. Covers email/SMS provider failover for reliable delivery.
- **[Enterprise-Grade Features]**: Turnkey multi-tenancy, SAML SSO, SCIM, JIT provisioning, RBAC, and an embeddable admin portal that lets customers self-serve auth settings.
- **[Fraud & Abuse Prevention]**: Device fingerprinting, invisible CAPTCHA, intelligent rate limiting, bot detection (99.99% accuracy), and security verdicts to stop account takeover and credential stuffing.
- **[AI Agent Identity & Security]**: A dedicated platform for authenticating, authorizing, and managing AI agents, including MCP (Model Context Protocol) support and consent management. Includes Connected Apps for cross-application integrations.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed (acquired by Twilio; exact terms not public)
- **Key Metric**: Total Funding raised – **$126.25 million** (Seed $6.2M led by Benchmark, Series A $30M led by Thrive Capital, Series B $90M led by Coatue). Annual Revenue estimated at **$13.2 million** per LinkedIn data.

Active job postings for 9 roles as of mid-2025. Named **Built In 2025 Best Places to Work**.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Developer-first philosophy**: APIs, SDKs, and pre-built UI that give developers full control over the login experience without building auth from scratch.
- **Comprehensive platform**: Combines authentication, authorization, user management, and fraud prevention in one integration — unlike point solutions.
- **Multi-tenancy native**: SCIM, RBAC, and org-level auth settings built-in, making enterprise adoption seamless.
- **AI agent readiness**: Early mover in authenticating non-human identities (MCP, agent consent, bot detection).
- **Twilio ecosystem integration**: Access to Twilio’s cloud communications infrastructure and customer base.

## Strategic Focus
- **Deepen Twilio integration**: Leverage the acquisition to create an “intelligent identity layer for the internet” across Twilio’s platform.
- **Expand enterprise features**: Continued investment in SCIM, SSO, admin portals, and enterprise compliance.
- **Lead in AI identity**: Build out tools for AI agent authentication, authorization, and fraud protection as AI agents proliferate.
- **Scale multi-tenancy**: Make org-level authentication management as simple as possible to reduce friction for customer deployments.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Emphasizes ownership, urgency, and empathetic teamwork. Employees are encouraged to fix problems they see and “act with urgency” while prioritizing impact.
- **Hybrid work model**: Flexible remote/on-site policy; offices in San Francisco (HQ) and New York. Employees choose how they work best, with company-sponsored in-person events.
- **Perks & recognition**: Named **Built In 2025 Best Places to Work**; high employer rating of **4.8/5.0** (based on 30 reviews) with top marks in Culture (4.9) and Work-Life Balance (4.8).
- **Engineering culture**: Product and engineering-driven environment using modern stack (TypeScript, Node.js, Next.js). Emphasis on building reliable services and mentoring.
- **Talent pool**: Strong ties to Plaid (founders’ background, many alumni), Stripe, Asana, Google, and Brex.
