Senior Software Engineering Manager

Lead and grow a small engineering team responsible for Tulip's Identity & Access systems, including SSO, SAML, OIDC, SCIM, and multi-tenant authorization.

About the role

Key Responsibilities

  • Own the architecture and roadmap for identity & access — SSO/SAML/OIDC federation, SCIM provisioning, multi-tenant account structures, and the authorization layer across Tulip's multi-cloud infrastructure.
  • Lead and grow a small, high-caliber team — run regular 1:1s, set quality standards, give direct feedback, and develop engineers on security-critical systems.
  • Stay technically engaged through design reviews and code, holding the team to clean architecture, automated tests, and clear runbooks.
  • Represent Identity & Access in cross-functional architecture reviews and roadmap decisions.
  • Partner with Security, Infrastructure, Product, and Customer Success on enterprise compliance and tenant isolation.
  • Drive adoption of AI tooling in how the team builds — code review, test generation, spec drafting, and agent loops — and share what works across engineering.
  • Make and own the hard tradeoffs on IAM and access policy where tenant isolation and enterprise compliance are non-negotiable.
  • Ship work that reaches customers quickly and reliably, with operational excellence as the default.

Requirements

  • Hands-on depth with OAuth 2.0, SAML 2.0, OIDC, and SCIM in enterprise environments — you understand the specs and their failure modes, not just the libraries.
  • Experience building multi-tenant systems where tenant isolation is a hard requirement.
  • 3+ years managing engineering teams in B2B SaaS — you've hired, given constructive feedback, and grown engineers.
  • Working knowledge of IAM, secrets management, and access policy across AWS and Azure, including the tradeoffs when customers span both.
  • A track record of shipping clean, tested code and holding a team to the same standard.
  • Active use of AI tooling in your own practice, with a point of view on how it changes the way teams build.
