I'm a Staff Engineer on Kong's Identity team. We're hiring a Senior Software Engineer to help build the identity platform behind Konnect.
The team owns authentication and authorization services, OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect infrastructure, token issuance and validation, client credential management, claims generation, and the APIs that let customers automate identity workflows.
Some of the problems we work on:
- Building low-latency token generation, validation, and introspection services - Designing multi-tenant identity systems with strong tenant isolation - Implementing OAuth 2.0 and OIDC flows across Kong products - Developing dynamic claims engines and authorization capabilities - Operating globally distributed authentication services with caching, replication, and edge optimization - Building developer-facing APIs and SDKs - Improving observability, security, and reliability of critical auth infrastructure
Our stack is primarily Go, Kubernetes, and cloud-native infrastructure.
We're looking for engineers with experience building backend and distributed systems. Experience with identity systems, OAuth, OIDC, JWTs, or authentication platforms is helpful but not required.

Psiphon is a VPN app used by millions of people to access the open internet in regions where it's restricted. Small team, software that matters.
We're building the next-gen client app in Flutter (iOS, Android, macOS, Windows) and need someone who can work across both iOS native and Flutter. Split is roughly 65% Flutter, 35% iOS native (Swift, StoreKit, entitlements, network extensions). You'll have mentorship from a senior iOS specialist for the deeper networking work.
Day to day: Feature development in Flutter, iOS platform integration (subscriptions, permissions, App Store), and occasionally going deep into network extensions and packet tunnel providers. Small team (~3-4 core devs), high ownership, low ceremony.
Looking for: Strong Swift experience beyond just UIKit/SwiftUI app dev, comfort with the iOS ecosystem (App Store process, provisioning, StoreKit), and willingness to context-switch between Swift and Dart in the same day. Flutter experience is a strong plus but not required if you pick up frameworks quickly.
