Company Overview

ID.me simplifies how people securely prove and share their identity online. The company empowers people to control their data through a portable and trusted login, which means they don’t need to create a new password when visiting sites that have the ID.me button.

The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated digital migration for many critical services. Those services require a trusted identity to safeguard against fraud and help ensure people are who they claim to be. With ID.me, login and identity credentials move with people, which can reduce the time and frustration of having to verify at multiple sites and set up multiple passwords.

ID.me is a credential service provider compliant with federal standards for digital identity verification.

In addition to helping people control their credentials and data, the company’s “No Identity Left Behind” initiative strives to expand access and inclusion for all people. The company offers multiple pathways to verification – online self-serve, live video chat agents, and in person. ID.me is passionate about building a robust identity network that does not compromise access for traditionally underserved groups.

ID.me is looking for a Software Development Engineer V to add to our rapidly growing Marketplaces team. This person will be responsible for powering traffic generation and member activation in our B2C application ecosystem. This includes new member experience, notifications (email, push, etc.), SEO, referrals, ads platform, and other systems that drive the nurturing and reinforcement of the member journey in ID.me Marketplaces.

Marketplaces is one of the fastest growing domains at ID.me, and this role will have the opportunity to build systems and features at scale that drive the future experience for the 112 million+ ID.me members on ID.me Shop, ID.me Homepage, ID.me Rx, and other emerging verticals. We’ll be leveraging this foundational work immediately to drive incremental improvement to our applications as we build out additional capabilities and systems, so the ability to balance short term benefits without compromising long term design are crucial to success in this position. The initiatives in scope for this role have a measurable impact on the success of ID.me, contribute directly to company goals, and have executive level visibility.
