About the job
About Private Identity
Private Identity (“PrivateID”) builds privacy-preserving identity and age-assurance technology — verification that confirms who someone is, or that they meet an age requirement, without storing the underlying personal data.
Our software runs in production at consumer scale for some of the largest companies in the world, and we hold ourselves to the quality bar this demands: Private Identity is ISO 27001, ISO 9001 and SOC 2 Type II certified, and a Kantara-certified NIST SP 800-63 credential service provider.
We’re a small, senior, international team, HQ in Washington DC, who work in the open, write things down, and ship software that works the first time.
The role
You’ll be a Private Identity engineer embedded three days a week with a large customer’s in-store platform team in Woonsocket, RI, and working from home the other two. You are our quality gate inside the account: the person who makes sure every build we ship lands cleanly, gets tested thoroughly, and arrives with the clear write-up that keeps both teams in sync.
The work is mostly quality automation. Builds come to you from our engineering leads — Ubuntu workstation software from the Linux team, the companion Android app from our mobile lead — and you take each one through a short, focused manual pass and then into the Playwright suites you own and extend. Manual testing is deliberately limited; writing and running automated tests is the heart of the job.
