What We're Looking For

What We Do
Stytch is the most powerful identity platform built for developers. By powerful, we mean:
**Comprehensive:** Stytch has everything you need to identify, authenticate, and manage your users, including fraud prevention tools like device fingerprinting.
**Adaptable:** Stytch is the only auth provider that enables you to build directly with our APIs or our suite of SDKs, so you can deliver the ideal experience to your users – whatever your architecture.
**Ready to scale:** With a wide array of auth methods and sophisticated architecture underpinning our infrastructure, Stytch’s infrastructure is built to grow with you as your use cases expand and your needs become bigger and more complex.
Whatever your tech stack, whatever your use case, we have the infrastructure and features you need to secure and scale your application.
At Stytch, we believe our ultimate success will be determined by two factors:
- Building a product that delights both customers and end users
- Creating a work environment where everyone thrives
These two cannot exist without the other — without a great culture, we won't be able to deliver a great product over the long run; similarly, having a great culture will be fleeting if we don't deliver a product that developers and users love.
Why Work With Us
Stytch is a fast-paced environment that has a bias for action–we’re growing quickly and believe in learning by iterating and taking bold, but calculated risks. We’re building a culture that values psychological safety–while technical skills are critical, empathy is a key company value and we evaluate candidates on both during the hiring process.
