Twilio
About this role
Twilio powers messaging and voice for a very large number of applications, and this seat is on its
Identity and Access Management team, which builds the authentication and authorisation platform the
rest of the product depends on. The work is frontend heavy despite the general title: React,
TypeScript, GraphQL, HTML, CSS and object oriented JavaScript, with debugging that spans systems and
repositories rather than stopping at the component boundary. You design and ship features, review
code, and own and operate high scale cloud services. This is the most accessible genuinely remote
role on the board today at 3 years, and remote has been the single most requested thing from readers
here. Apply if you are a strong frontend engineer who wants to work on security infrastructure.

Who this is for
Requirements. 3+ years of proven experience as a software developer or frontend developer, with a
strong understanding of React, TypeScript and the general frontend ecosystem. Solid experience with
HTML, CSS and object oriented JavaScript. Strong experience with GraphQL. Experience debugging
problems across systems and repositories and designing solutions that span the whole stack.
Experience with modern testing frameworks.
Responsibilities. Design, develop and implement high quality applications. Work with cross functional
teams to define, design and ship new features. Take part in code reviews. Troubleshoot and debug
issues. Own and operate high scale cloud based systems and services.
⭐ Remote, and the restriction matters. The posting states: "This role will be remote, and based in
India <Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Telangana State, Maharashtra and New Delhi>". So it is genuinely remote,
but only if you live in one of those five states. Twilio has used the same five state limit before.
The IAM team itself is described as based in Bangalore, and the posting adds that as a remote first
company you may be asked to attend in person on an ad hoc basis for team gatherings, off sites or
customer meetings, plus occasional travel for project or team meetings.
One process detail the posting discloses. Twilio says it uses AI to help make its hiring process
efficient, while stating every hiring decision is made by a person. It also warns that it never makes
job offers without a formal interview process and never interviews solely over text messaging apps,
which is a scam warning worth reading.
Who this is for. A frontend engineer with three or more years who wants remote work and does not
want to leave a tier two city to get it. If you are outside the five named states, this one will not
work and it is better to know before you apply. Identity is a good domain to grow in: the problems
stay interesting because the threat model keeps moving, and IAM experience transfers everywhere.
