Hi, We’re AppFolio.

Who we are looking for:

At AppFolio, we paddle as one. We ride and make waves together, with a relentless focus on building great products for the way our customers work and live today – and tomorrow. AppFolio is a destination organization where careers are made and accelerated. Here, innovation is a team sport.

The Senior Software Engineer on the Identity and Access Management team is a full stack engineering role. In this role, you and your team will ensure safe and secure access across all of AppFolio Property Manager, keeping millions of users and their data safe by taking a customer-centric approach to balancing security and convenience.

Your Impact:

• Own and improve our libraries and infrastructure supporting authentication and authorization through independent study, cross-functional collaboration, and partnership with existing subject matter experts.
• Act as an evangelist in product security - capable of setting patterns, standards, and mentoring more junior developers.
• Determine key architectural and design decisions enabling a scalable and robust system with a simple customer experience - this will involve some combination of leveraging our existing technology, refactoring, integrating with partners, or starting from scratch when it makes sense.
• Participate in customer research/discovery with Product partners to understand customer problems, needs, and estimate technical feasibility of various potential solutions.
• Work in a truly agile fashion to turn unruly problems into thinly sliced deliverables and execute quickly against them while limiting work in progress.
• Hold a high bar of engineering excellence and always look for ways to raise it. Adopt our engineering best practices, provide and receive in-depth code reviews, and participate in healthy debate as a team. Evangelize your own expertise and experience among your teammates and the rest of the organization.
• Together with your team, your solutions are always well-instrumented. Queries and dashboards are easily accessible and regularly used to drive decisions as well as measure and celebrate progress.
• Enthusiastically participate in a high performing, empowered team with high levels of mutual trust and respect. As part of an empowered team, you will take ownership of your problem space - reflecting and growing from our failures and celebrating our successes.

Qualifications:

• Creativity and proactivity - an ability to solve complex problems without a roadmap
• A love of learning about and using new tech, but also understand the value of continuing to leverage existing technology when it gets the job done.
• A core belief in stewarding the long-term maintainability of the codebase and advocate for refactoring and code cleanliness.
• The ability to identify and resolve code-smells through sensible refactoring.

Must Have:

• Experience developing web applications (5+ years in software development), preferably in an agile SaaS environment.
• Experience designing and implementing identity and access management solutions.
• Knowledge in common industry standards and protocols and their implementations in production environments. (i.e. MFA, OAuth, SSO, SAML, OpenId Connect, etc.)
• Proven experience working across all levels of the development stack.
• Strong familiarity with Agile software development processes: Scrum or Kanban
• Strong familiarity with Test-Driven-Development

Nice to have:

• Mastery experience with a few areas of our tech like Ruby on Rails, React, SQL
• Strong familiarity with Secure software development practices and the OWASP Top 10
