Senior Software Engineer

This is a UK-based remote role. You will be required to interview in person. About SailPoint SailPoint is defining the next era of identity security. Our unified, AI-powered platform seamlessly secures both the Human Fabric of your workforce and the Agentic Fabric of AI and non-human identities, completely eliminating organizational blind spots. Built on core principles like zero-standing privilege and contextualized risk, our platform transforms identity from a vulnerability into a strategic business advantage. Today, we are trusted by some of the largest, most complex organizations in the world to deliver intelligent, autonomous identity security at scale. As a Senior Software Engineer at SailPoint, you will be at the forefront of powering intelligent identity decisions across modern enterprise environments. In your day-to-day work, you will design, build, and deploy robust full-stack microservices for the Policy Engine—a mission-critical system delivering real-time and batch decision evaluations for cutting-edge initiatives like the SailPoint Agentic Fabric. You will rapidly prototype solutions, hone product requirements with cross-functional partners, and build performant, maintainable software using modern technologies including Golang and Angular. Embracing modern AI-assisted and agentic development workflows, you will actively apply the latest engineering techniques to deliver high-impact security capabilities at global scale. About the team You will join the UK Platform Engineering team, a highly collaborative group responsible for architecting, building, and running core platform services. The team consists of talented engineers passionate about crafting resilient distributed systems and end-to-end features. While we enjoy the flexibility of remote work, we stay closely connected through regular collaboration and gather in person once per quarter for an energizing one- to two-day team offsite. Roadmap for success 30 days: Complete onboarding and environment configuration across all relevant SailPoint engineering platforms. Shadow team peers to understand the Policy Engine architecture, service dependencies, and deployment pipelines. Complete first bug fix or minor feature contribution and successfully submit a pull request following team standards. Actively participate in daily standups, sprint planning, and code review workflows. 60 days: Design and implement first end-to-end microservice feature in collaboration with the tech lead and product partners. Develop unit and integration test suites validating service resilience and external integration points. Shadow the engineering support rotation to learn on-call troubleshooting procedures and operational tooling. 6 months: Autonomously architect, build, and deliver complex, high-throughput Policy Engine features from concept through to production rollout. Participate actively in the 24x7 engineering on-call support rotation (approximately 1 week in 20). Lead design reviews, mentor team members on best practices, and introduce agentic coding workflows to accelerate team delivery. 1 year: Serve as a Subject Matter Expert (SME) on the Policy Engine and Agentic Fabric decision systems. Drive technical roadmaps and architectural evolution for key microservices across the UK Platform team. Partner with global architecture and engineering leadership to set coding standards and lead major technical initiatives.
