Why Socure?

Socure is building the identity trust infrastructure for the digital economy — verifying 100% of good identities in real time and stopping fraud before it starts. The mission is big, the problems are complex, and the impact is felt by businesses, governments, and millions of people every day.

We hire people who want that level of responsibility. People who move fast, think critically, act like owners, and care deeply about solving customer problems with precision. If you want predictability or narrow scope, this won’t be your place. If you want to help build the future of identity with a team that holds a high bar for itself — keep reading.

We are looking for a Senior Data Engineer to join our Data Automation team. You will play a critical role in designing and building scalable data platforms and pipelines that power Socure’s identity verification products and analytics. This role is ideal for someone who has a strong passion for solving real business problems with data, and combines deep hands-on data engineering expertise with strong ownership.
