Senior Software Engineer, Enterprise Platform

About the Role

Discord's Enterprise Technology org is building a software engineering discipline from the ground up, and this is one of its first engineering hires. The Enterprise Platform team is brand new, and you will own core domains of the platform that turns internal systems into self-service software. Your mission is to turn our enterprise infrastructure into self-service software, replacing manual consoles and tickets with a platform of reusable primitives exposed through clean APIs and self-service portals.

Responsibilities

• 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.
• Own app delivery and Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC): Build deployment pipelines and provisioning patterns that let internal systems be built and changed safely.
• Build the self-service layer: Design and ship APIs, CLIs, and portals that compose primitives into paved paths, like automating a new hire's first day.
• Own your domain end to end: Take core components from design through production, writing RFCs and documentation for the areas you own.

Requirements

• 3+ years building and operating production software and systems at a technology company, with a track record of owning projects end to end.
• Strong software engineering fundamentals: writing production code (Go, Python, TypeScript), designing, testing, and shipping it.
• Hands-on IAM experience (SSO, SCIM, OAuth/OIDC, RBAC) and working fluency with infrastructure as code (Terraform) and CI/CD.
• Experience treating endpoint or infrastructure configuration as an API-driven engineering surface rather than console work.
• A platform-as-a-product mindset, focusing on adoption and usability, not just shipping features.
• Comfort owning complex, multi-milestone projects through ambiguity and energy for building in a greenfield environment.

Qualifications

• Hands-on experience with Okta, Jamf, or Intune (bonus).
• Experience with identity and access governance for non-human, workload, or AI-agent principals (bonus).
• Background at a high-growth consumer tech company with a highly technical employee base (bonus).

Pay

The US base salary range for this full-time position is $196,000 to $220,500 + 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.
