Come join us and help shape a safer, simpler digital future. We’re hiring Developers to join our growing AI team, with opportunities to work on AI for Security (securing agentic workflows and AI-driven features) or Security for AI (ensuring AI systems themselves are built securely). This is a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of cutting-edge AI and world-class security, shaping how 1Password sets the standard for secure AI adoption across millions of users.

What we’re looking for

• Demonstrated ability to solve moderately complex problems with effective, scalable solutions
• Strong communication and collaboration skills, including the ability to explain technical concepts to cross-functional partners
• Passion for testing methodologies, debugging, and ensuring high-quality code

Bonus points for

• Experience with languages like Go, Rust, Kotlin, Swift, JavaScript, or similar – or the ability to learn new languages quickly
• Familiarity with LLM frameworks (LangChain, Semantic Kernel, etc.)
• Knowledge of identity/security platforms (Okta, Auth0, ForgeRock, Ping Identity)
• Experience deploying or securing cloud-based AI infrastructure (AWS, GCP, Azure)

What you can expect

• Code, test, debug, and deliver production software systems for AI-driven and security-focused product features
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (product, security, infrastructure, AI/ML) throughout the development cycle to ensure smooth releases
• Communicate technical requirements and trade-offs clearly to stakeholders
• Participate in planning: breaking down work, estimating effort, and contributing to project planning
• Write comprehensive unit and integration tests to ensure reliability and resilience of AI and security systems
• Review code from teammates, maintaining quality while fostering a culture of open feedback
• Document code and processes to ensure long-term scalability and maintainability
• Stay informed on the latest trends in AI and security, proactively sharing knowledge with the team
• Participate in on-call rotations to ensure continuous support of production systems
