About This Role
Strava is seeking for an Engineering Manager for the Identity team — operating 60/40 as hands-on engineer and technical leader. You'll own authentication and authorization systems covering login, signup, abuse prevention, and core identity services across iOS, Android, and web. This is a platform engineering role, not a security or IAM specialist position.
We follow a flexible hybrid model that translates to more than half of your time on-site in our San Francisco office — three days per week.
What You’ll Do:
Own the technical roadmap for Strava's identity platform: sign-up (Apple/Google Sign-In), login, MFA, password management, and account recovery
Design and scale a unified identity foundation across Strava Group's app portfolio, adopting modern standards (OAuth 2.0, OIDC, WebAuthn, passkeys)
Build and maintain secure, scalable authorization and access control systems (RBAC/ABAC) used by millions of athletes
Partner with Product, Security, Trust & Safety, and Legal to ensure compliance and platform integrity
Drive consistency across iOS, Android, and web identity experiences
Monitor and improve authentication success rates, recovery flows, and account security
Lead with strong technical judgment, balancing hands-on contribution with clear technical leadership
Establish best practices, operational excellence, and a culture of inclusion and mentorship
What You’ll Bring to the Team:
2-3 years of management/people leadership experience.
Experience building and operating authentication, authorization, and account security systems at scale
Familiarity with modern identity protocols and cross-app token management, session continuity, and MFA
A track record of leading teams through complex identity challenges (passkeys, RBAC/ABAC, platform consistency)
Ability to balance user experience with robust abuse protection
A holistic view of identity as a foundation for trust, safety, privacy, and growth
