About The Job
Scaleway is looking for a Backend Developer to join the team in charge of the Identity and Access Management (IAM) product and also the internal API Gateway.
Identity and Access Management
The Identity and Access Management (IAM) product is at the heart of securing access to Scaleway’s resources. It enables seamless management of both human and machine access across your organization. IAM also empowers you to define precise access controls through policies ensuring that users, applications, and groups have the right level of access to each product. Our service authenticates over 7,000 requests per second.
API Gateway
The internal API Gateway is a cornerstone of Scaleway’s cloud ecosystem and a key project within our team. It serves as the central hub for all public and internal API requests at Scaleway. Key features of the API Gateway include cross-region and cross-zone routing, rate limiting, authentication, support for both gRPC and REST protocols, and efficient load balancing. These capabilities ensure seamless, secure, and high-performance interactions across our platform. For a deeper dive into the API Gateway, check out this presentation from 2019 (still generally up-to-date).
