Staff Software engineer - Authentication and Security Observability

The Login Services team sits within Core Security Engineering and owns Uber’s authentication platform for both human and non-human identities. We build the systems that make login seamless, secure, and resilient for Uber’s global workforce and services—so people and workloads can confidently access internal and third-party applications using strong authentication with minimal operational cost. This Staff Engineer role is a technical leadership position shaping the future of authentication at Uber—especially as agentic workflows and non-human identities become first-class citizens. You’ll drive architecture and execution across major initiatives like building a security knowledge platform that computes risk levels for identities and assets (human + NHI), and evolving next-generation authentication capabilities (e.g., stronger factors and policy enforcement across critical systems). If you’re excited about building foundational security platforms at massive scale—where reliability, security posture, and automation directly move the business—this is a rare chance to lead in a space that’s getting more important every quarter.
