About authzed

We’re pioneering open-source authorization solutions for scaling businesses tackling complex end-user permissions in zero-trust architectures. Our focus is on providing SpiceDB—the most mature open-source permissions database inspired by Google’s Zanzibar system—and building managed services that enable planet-scale production authorization services.

Our strategic approach to capital-raising has empowered us to efficiently utilize our $3.9M seed fund and recently secure a $12M Series A. This funding has allowed us to further develop SpiceDB, now the open-source standard in authorization database technology, fortify our reputation as authorization experts, accelerate our open-source community growth, and scale revenue with robust enterprise products.

AuthZed is a fully remote company with employees across the US and Europe. We’re a hardworking group with a software-driven culture; even our sales team understands and loves our technology! We bring integrity to all our interactions, fostering confidence in decision making - trusting and respecting each voice on our team, every day.

Company Values

  • Agency
    • Everyone should have the capability, freedom, and confidence to bring about changes to our business and product. Organizational processes exist to clearly define our goals, but not restrict how progress is made.
  • Collaboration
    • Success is defined in various dimensions and no single person can be an expert in all of them. Without valuing the opinions of others, finding compromises, and sharing mutual trust and respect, you cannot arrive at the best possible solution.
  • Open-mindness
    • Without asking questions, testing assumptions, and questioning our pre-existing biases we risk operating within an echo-chamber. We celebrate the representation of diverse perspectives and backgrounds as a catalyst for creating an inclusive work environment that everyone can appreciate.
About the role

About AuthZed

At AuthZed, we’re redefining how modern applications think about access control. We believe teams should stop wasting engineering resources building and rebuilding authorization for every application and instead focus on revenue generating products.

  • Our technology is trusted by Reddit, Turo, Neo Financial, Canva, HackerRank, and many of the top financial institutions. 
  • The founders helped create the cloud native movement as the creators of Quay, the first enterprise Docker registry. The engineering team is some of the most well-known engineers in cloud native, distributed systems, and authorization.
  • AuthZed is a fully remote company with employees across the US and Europe. We’re a hardworking group with an engineering-driven culture;our sales team especially understands and loves our technology!
