• Assist with integrating applications and APIs with identity platforms such as Okta, Auth0, Ping Identity, or Microsoft Entra ID.

• Implement and support capabilities involving SSO, MFA, federated authentication, session management, and secure token handling.

• Contribute to identity services such as login gateways, authorization middleware, claims transformation, and access policy enforcement.

• Support SMART on FHIR OAuth 2.0 use cases and broader unified authentication initiatives.

• Troubleshoot moderately complex authentication, authorization, and application integration issues.

• Follow established identity architecture, engineering standards, and implementation patterns.

Security and Standards

• Apply secure engineering practices, including least privilege, secure defaults, defense in depth, and appropriate handling of secrets and credentials.

• Participate in threat modeling, risk reviews, and secure software development lifecycle activities with guidance from Security and senior engineers.

• Help implement identity solutions aligned with established identity and access control principles.

• Identify potential security or reliability concerns and escalate complex risks to the appropriate technical or security partners.

• Follow organizational security, privacy, compliance, and access-control requirements.

Software Development and Delivery

• Build and maintain production software using one or more languages such as JavaScript, TypeScript, Ruby, Python, or C#.

• Write clean, testable, and maintainable code using established engineering standards.

• Participate in code reviews and incorporate feedback from peers and senior engineers.

• Create and maintain unit, integration, and automated tests.

• Support CI/CD practices and the safe delivery of application and identity-service updates.

• Diagnose and resolve software defects and moderately complex production issues.

• Update existing applications and services to improve functionality, address technical issues, and incorporate new features.

• Create clear technical documentation for APIs, integrations, implementation decisions, and operational support.

• Participate in on-call or operational support for critical identity services as needed, with appropriate team support and escalation paths.

Collaboration and Ways of Working

• Work within a Kanban delivery model by managing assigned work, communicating progress, and contributing to improvements in quality and delivery flow.

• Collaborate with Product, Security, QA, and engineering partners to clarify requirements and deliver software that meets user and business needs.

• Participate in technical discussions and contribute ideas, questions, and implementation recommendations.

• Communicate technical decisions, risks, dependencies, and challenges clearly.

• Seek guidance when addressing unfamiliar, highly complex, or high-risk technical issues.

• Continue developing technical knowledge through feedback, mentorship, documentation, and hands-on experience.

Priority will be given to candidates who reside in the Columbus, Ohio metropolitan area.
