About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • Security core components in the product
  • Authentication - design, build and operate the authentication stack on top of our self-hosted identity provider.
  • Our goal is to go passwordless with great UX and unblock strategic initiatives relying on this stack.
  • Encryption - build, evolve and operate our end-to-end encryption component used by our Alan Clinic while keeping it delightful and frictionless for our members.
  • Secure file exchange - evolve and operate our secure file exchange platform to unblock product/ops teams while bringing support when relevant.
  • Secure enclave for medical secrecy - contribute to the foundations to isolate and protect highly sensitive medical data without sacrificing usability or delivery speed.
  • Contribute to engineering-wide security practices by building tools and patterns that help every engineer ship safely (secure CI/CD, vulnerability remediation tooling, AI/LLM safety, etc.).

Requirements

What you’ll need
  • 3+ years in full-stack software engineering roles
  • Experience designing systems, APIs, libraries, or frameworks used by other engineers
  • You've shipped, owned, and operated production systems (rollouts, on-call, incidents)
  • You've shipped secure features, fixed vulnerabilities, designed auth/crypto flows, or championed secure-by-default patterns in past teams
  • You love turning complex problems into elegant secure solutions
  • You care about creating secure-by-design products while keeping delightful experiences
  • You treat security engineering as product work: engineers & members are your customers, and security should feel effortless.
  • You’re hands-on: writing code is the bulk of the job (Python, TypeScript, Terraform). You ship what you write to production yourself, then operate it: rollouts, alerting, on-call, incident response.
  • You design and communicate: you're as comfortable writing a framing, drawing a sequence diagram, and aligning 3 product crews on an auth migration as you are writing the code. You make complex security tradeoffs legible to non-security engineers.
  • You're an enabler: you measure your impact by how fast product crews ship secure features without ever consulting you. The harder you've worked, the less they have to engage you.
  • You build reusable patterns: guardrails, libraries, and secure-by-default abstractions that prevent vulnerabilities at scale.
  • You’re fluent in English (French is not required).

Benefits

Comp & perks
  • Alaners are provided with a stimulating environment and perks ensuring they are happy, efficient and spend only high-quality time with co-workers.
  • A strong culture: People joining Alan are often surprised and delighted by our innovative working method. We have a set of cultural values that guide our approach to work.
