Who this role is best for

Geared toward candidates comfortable with building agentic loops and managing identity and access controls.

Best fit for

  • Candidates with hands-on experience in macOS management and automation of security systems
    — “Hands-on macOS management at scale: MDM (Jamf, Fleet, Kandji, or equivalent) and macOS update mechanisms”
  • Individuals who have built and operated identity and access controls with Okta or similar platforms
    — “Working knowledge of an identity provider (Okta or similar): SSO, authentication and authenticator policies, SCIM provisioning, and conditional access”
  • Candidates who can integrate and automate across multiple security platforms
    — “These systems overlap heavily in practice, and the work is largely about integrating them and automating what would otherwise be manual administration”

Things to consider

  • The role requires a balance between technical enforcement and minimizing user friction
    — “Ability to evaluate tradeoffs between technical enforcement, policy, and user friction”
  • Candidates must be prepared to work in a high-stakes, data-dense environment
    — “The problems are high-stakes, data-dense, and unforgiving”

How to stand out

  • Emphasize experience with configuration-as-code and endpoint security agent remediation
    — “Build automation for endpoint security agent remediation across EDR, DLP, VPN, and similar tooling”
  • Highlight your ability to integrate and automate systems rather than just managing them
    — “The work is largely about integrating them and automating what would otherwise be manual administration”
  • Showcase your background in identity posture management and access governance
    — “Remediate identity posture gaps surfaced by ISPM tooling: stale accounts, orphaned service principals, over-scoped OAuth grants, MFA gaps, and excess privileges”
  • Demonstrate your skills in using APIs to build reporting and documentation
    — “Automate across these platforms using their APIs, build reporting on control coverage”
  • Position yourself as having experience with enterprise AI controls and security concerns
    — “Exposure to AI and LLM security concerns: agent authorization, tool calls, model gateways, data leakage through AI tooling”

ABOUT RAMP

Ramp is building the smart infrastructure for finance teams, embedded in the transaction flow of every dollar a business spends. We automate how over $200B in annualized spend flows in and out of 70,000+ companies: authorizing payments, flagging risk, categorizing spend, and closing books.

The problems are high-stakes, data-dense, and unforgiving.

We hire people with high agency and high urgency. We look for slope over intercept. We care less about where you trained and more about what you’ve built. At Ramp, everyone is a builder who owns problems end to end and makes consequential decisions that shape the outcome.

The median Ramp customer saves 5% and grows revenue 16% in their first year – far in excess of businesses operating without Ramp. We believe every ambitious company deserves the same.

If you want to build systems that directly shape how companies move and manage billions, Ramp is the place to do it.

ABOUT THE ROLE

Corporate Security at Ramp owns the security of our internal environment: the device fleet, the identity and access layer, and the AI tools employees use for their work. We are hiring a Systems Engineer to build and operate the controls across these systems.

The role is hands-on, writing code and building agentic loops wherever possible rather than solving problems manually. You will help manage device configuration and patching via configuration-as-code, authentication and authenticator policies in Okta, network and gateway enforcement in Cloudflare, and the controls around our enterprise Claude and OpenAI deployments. These systems overlap heavily in practice, and the work is largely about integrating them and automating what would otherwise be manual administration.

You will report to the Corporate Security lead and work closely with IT, Security Engineering, and AI DevX.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

  • Maintain update policies for both OS and software, and monitor the fleet so that newly introduced applications are brought into the patching cadence
  • Build automation for endpoint security agent remediation across EDR, DLP, VPN, and similar tooling — detecting missing, stale, or unhealthy agents and bringing devices back into compliance
  • Maintain device configuration baselines as code, including drift detection and hardening standards
  • Configure authentication and authenticator policies in Okta: SSO, MFA and authenticator enrollment, device trust, and conditional access
  • Remediate identity posture gaps surfaced by ISPM tooling: stale accounts, orphaned service principals, over-scoped OAuth grants, MFA gaps, and excess privileges
  • Implement and operate controls for enterprise AI usage, including identity-aware access, logging and retention, DLP where appropriate, and enforcement
  • Automate across these platforms using their APIs, build reporting on control coverage, and document how the controls you build are operated

WHAT YOU NEED

  • 3–5 years of experience in Client Platform Engineer/Endpoint Engineering, Identity Access & Management, or Corporate Security
  • Hands-on macOS management at scale: MDM (Jamf, Fleet, Kandji, or equivalent) and macOS update mechanisms
  • Working knowledge of an identity provider (Okta or similar): SSO, authentication and authenticator policies, SCIM provisioning, and conditional access
  • Scripting ability in Python, Go, or Bash, and experience automating against platform APIs
  • Experience with EDR and endpoint vulnerability management (CrowdStrike or similar)
  • Ability to evaluate tradeoffs between technical enforcement, policy, and user friction, and to explain those tradeoffs clearly

NICE TO HAVE

  • osquery and Fleet, or other query-based fleet visibility tooling
  • Identity posture management (ISPM) tooling, or access review and governance platforms
  • Cloudflare Zero Trust, or other proxy, DNS, or network-layer enforcement, including TLS inspection
  • Exposure to AI and LLM security concerns: agent authorization, tool calls, model gateways, data leakage through AI tooling
  • Infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD experience (Terraform, GitHub Actions)
  • Windows fleet management alongside macOS
  • Compliance frameworks (SOC 2, PCI) as they apply to endpoints and access
