At Ping Identity, we believe in making digital experiences both secure and seamless for all users, without compromise. We call this digital freedom. And it's not just something we provide our customers. It's something that inspires our company. People don't come here to join a culture that's built on digital freedom. They come to cultivate it.
Our intelligent, cloud identity platform lets people shop, work, bank, and interact wherever and however they want. Without friction. Without fear.
While protecting digital identities is at the core of our technology, protecting individual identities is at the core of our culture. We champion every identity. One of our core values, Respect Individuality, reminds us to celebrate differences so you are empowered to bring your authentic self to work.

At Ping Identity, we're changing the way people and businesses think about cybersecurity, digital experiences, and identity and access management.
We're seeking an accomplished staff software engineer to join our PingOne Directory team and help drive the development of our industry-leading multi-tenant user store.
Our products address complex use cases, and you'll create solutions that manage this complexity elegantly. You're comfortable asking questions to colleagues at all levels within the organization, to find the information you need and ensure that we are solving the right problem.

- Make technical decisions that balance product needs, engineering quality, performance, security, and delivery constraints.
- Work on products offered to customers as either SaaS or on-premise software.
- Help raise engineering standards by mentoring others through code reviews, technical feedback, design discussions, pairing, and knowledge-sharing.
- Contribute to a culture of continuous improvement within an agile delivery team.
- Participate in an on-call support rotation for a multi-tenant SaaS product.
- Work remotely, with 1-2 days per week in our Austin-based office.
What you’ll bring:
- Extensive hands-on development experience delivering major features for products with complex user workflows.
- A product-minded approach to engineering, balancing technical constraints, scope, customer needs, and business goals.
- Experience using AI-assisted workflows to accelerate different parts of the software development lifecycle, such as design, code generation, testing, refactoring, and code review.
- Strong Java development experience, with a track record of applying object-oriented design principles to deliver high-quality, well-tested, maintainable software.
- Experience with Spring or similar Java frameworks.
- Experience designing, building, and consuming RESTful APIs, ideally within a microservice architecture.
- Familiarity with containerized deployment environments using Docker and Kubernetes.
- Experience with build automation tools such as Maven or Gradle.
Experience in any of the following would be beneficial:
- Cassandra or other distributed NoSQL databases.
- Kafka or other event-driven messaging technologies.
- Jenkins or similar CI/CD tooling.
- Unix-based development or production environments.
- Identity and Access Management (IAM).
