Founding Solutions Engineer - SuperTokens

SuperTokens builds open-source user authentication. For developers building apps that want users to be able to sign up for the app, they have to build the signup page and other user authentication functionality. SuperTokens offers that out of the box. We enable developers to focus on their core product and integrate user authentication in under 1 hour.

Compensation range: $130k–$140k (flexible based on location and experience) plus 20% commission.

Experience in software development and current/prior work at a developer tools (or DevInfra) company is preferable.
