About the Role:
As a member of the Product and Engineering team at PitchBook, you will be part of a team of big thinkers, innovators, and problem solvers who strive to deepen the positive impact we have on our customers and our company every day. We value curiosity and the drive to find better ways of doing things. We thrive on customer empathy, which remains our focus when creating excellent customer experiences through product innovation. We know that greatness is achieved through collaboration and diverse points of view, so we work closely with partners around the globe. As a team, we assume positive intent in each other's words and actions, value constructive discussions, and foster a respectful working environment built on integrity, growth, and business value. We invest heavily in our people, who are eager to learn and constantly improve. Join our team and grow with us! As an Engineering Manager, Software Development in PitchBook's engineering division, you will lead the Authentication & Identity Stream-Aligned Team (SAT), which owns end-user authentication and system-level authorization across PitchBook products, including the web platform, mobile applications, Excel and PowerPoint add-ins, and the Chrome extension. You will lead a distributed team of backend engineers and SDETs, supported by a technical lead, architect, and product manager. The Authentication domain is PitchBook's primary interface to third-party identity providers and Morningstar identity systems. The team's flagship, multi-year initiative is the migration from legacy credential and SSO infrastructure to Auth0-based Customer Identity and Access Management (CIAM). Current work includes credential migration, silent authentication, SAML and Okta SSO connections, consolidation of microsite login flows, multi-factor authentication, session management, and just-in-time user provisioning. Because Authentication is a Tier-1, always-on service on the critical path for every customer and internal login, this role balances secure feature delivery with reliability, high availability, operational excellence, and scalable identity infrastructure.
