Why Lumos?

🚀 Jump on a rocketship. Since launching out of stealth in April 2022, we've grown from 20 to ~130 Alchemists and raised over $65M from a16z, Scale, Neo, Greg Brockman (President at OpenAI), and Phil Venables (CISO at Google).

⭐ Customers love us — and so does the industry. Named a Strong Performer in the 2026 Gartner Voice of the Customer for IGA — 4.7/5, with 96% of reviewers saying they'd recommend us. Our customers cut time-to-access by 98%, slash IT tickets by 72%, and eliminate excess privilege at scale.

🏆 A culture worth joining. Three years running on Forbes' Top 100 Best Startup Employers in America (2024, 2025, 2026) — measured on culture, retention, growth, and job creation. That's our Alchemists, not our marketing. See what we live by here .

Lumos is making it a joy for companies to manage their apps and identities ✨. By integrating usage, spend, compliance, and access data, we provide a level of clarity and insight previously unimaginable. At the heart of our products is our identity data platform, the systems that ingest identity data from hundreds of third-party integrations and turns it into the trusted, insight-rich primitives that power every Lumos product.

As a Software Engineer on our NHI Platform team you will drive the evolution of our non-human identity data backbone, the systems every Lumos product depends on. You will be instrumental in building robust, scalable, and reliable platform software. You will play a key role in designing and operating the software that turns raw identity inputs into a trusted foundation for the product.

We’re a startup that values ownership , curiosity , and trust —and we’re looking for engineers who love building platform infrastructure that enables teams to move faster while improving resilience and visibility.

  • 💪 Monthly wellness stipend – A monthly stipend for gym memberships, fitness apps, and whatever helps you recharge.
  • 🛡️ Life & disability insurance – Life insurance, short-term disability, and long-term disability coverage available.
  • 🌴 Flexible PTO – Flexible time off with a minimum annual requirement, because rest is part of doing your best work.
  • 👶 Parental leave – Up to 16 weeks of paid parental leave for expecting parents.
  • 📚 $1,000 annual learning stipend – An annual budget for courses, books, conferences, and certifications.
  • ✈️ Company & team offsites – Company and team bonding trips throughout the year, fully covered by Lumos.

Requirements

  • 1+ years of professional backend or platform engineering experience building production systems other teams depend on, such as ingestion, sync, or event-driven pipelines.
  • Strong backend fundamentals. You’ve built APIs (REST or gRPC) and services backed by relational databases like Postgres or MySQL, and you’ve evolved schemas on live tables. Our stack is Python, Postgres and Kafka on AWS.
  • You care about correctness. You think about idempotency, ordering, retries vs. permanent failures, and dead-letter handling, because downstream products take action on the data you produce.
  • You operate what you ship. You’ve deployed containerized services to AWS, GCP or Azure, debugged from metrics, traces and logs, and been part of an on-call rotation.
  • You’re excited to build from the ground up. This is a greenfield team, and the systems you build become the foundation every other Lumos product runs on.
  • Nice to have: Kafka, Temporal or change data capture (Debezium), Terraform, and familiarity with identity data like accounts, entitlements, service accounts and API keys.
