Job Description
<h1>Old problem, new $25B+ market</h1><p style="min-height:1.5em">Companies like AWS, Stripe, and Twilio have shown that if a technology isn't core to your value proposition, you should offload it. Still, every engineering team builds and rebuilds one piece: <strong>authorization</strong>, how you control who has access to what in your app. We intend to change that.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">We see a world where developers never roll their own authorization again, and instead say, "Just use Oso" – the same way you might say, "Oh, you should just use Postgres for that." In doing so, we're creating the $25B+ authorization market.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><h2>Why Oso?</h2><p style="min-height:1.5em">We have the lead – in traction, capital, and team.</p><ul style="min-height:1.5em"><li><p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>Traction</strong>: Oso is used by thousands of companies from startups to the Fortune 500, like Wayfair, ProductBoard, Vanta, Brex, Verizon, ZoomInfo, and Duolingo.</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>Capital</strong>: We're backed by the world’s best investors, including Sequoia, Felicis, and a standout group of infrastructure founders and operators: Olivier Pomel (Founder, Datadog), Dev Ittycheria (CEO, MongoDB), Armon Dadgar (Founder, HashiCorp), Edith Harbaugh (Founder, LaunchDarkly), Guy Podjarny (Founder, Snyk), Paul Copplestone (Founder, Supabase), Christina Cacioppo (Founder, Vanta), and Calvin French-Owen (Founder, Segment).</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>Team</strong>: We've spent 5+ years going deep on the domain. We've met with thousands of engineering teams and know more about this problem than anyone. And we have two of the best developer go-to-market leaders on earth who have done it before at MongoDB and Snyk.</p></li></ul><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><h2>Why now?</h2><p style="min-height:1.5em">We're at an inflection point. What it takes to get from where we are today to a world where developers say “Just use Oso” is going to be different. And we see that.<br />The opportunity is for you to join at this inflection point, in a role that’s bigger and different than usual.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><h2>What you’ll do</h2><ul style="min-height:1.5em"><li><p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>Educate the world on Authorization.</strong> This is a new topic for many engineers which grows with complexity as applications become more complex. The developer community needs your guidance on the best approaches to take and the challenges to anticipate. At Oso you’ll become that expert and engage with our users to help them navigate these challenging problems.</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>Help developers discover Oso.</strong> Get the word out on Oso, inspire users and help them adopt it with demos and sample apps, blog posts, tutorials, and videos, plus talks at meetups, conferences and on podcasts.</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em"><strong>Engage wit
