Therefore, we have guidelines on how AI can be appropriately used during your application and interviews which can be found here.
We are seeking a Software Engineer (SDE3), Developer Experience and AI Platform to join our Core Platform Engineering organization at IDMe. In this role, you will bring a relentless automation and self-service mindset—passionate about "automating all the things" to eliminate operational friction and cognitive load across the engineering organization. You will build the tools, systems, and platforms that free up other engineers’ time and context windows, making it effortless for them to build and ship software quickly while making it hard to break production.
IDMe is evolving as an API-first platform company, and everything we build on the Developer Experience and AI Platform team is superpowered by modern AI and Agentic AI tools and systems. As an SDE3 on this team, you will design and evolve programming-language-specific paved paths ("golden paths") that standardize service creation, CI/CD, observability, and security out of the box. Furthermore, you will build and integrate autonomous AI agents and agentic workflows (such as MCP integrations, RAG-powered developer context, and automated remediation pipelines) that progressively automate ongoing service ownership, upgrades, and maintenance tasks across IDMe’s codebase.
This role is based out of our McLean, VA office and requires full-time in-office attendance.
The annual base salary listed does not include a company bonus, incentive for sales roles, equity and benefits which will be determined based on experience, skills, education, relevant training, geographic location and role.
IDMe offers comprehensive medical, dental, vision, health savings account, flexible spending accounts (medical, limited purpose, dependent care, commuter benefit accounts), basic and voluntary life and AD&D insurance, 401(k) with company match, parental leave, ability to participate in unlimited paid time off subject to the terms and conditions of the PTO policy, including 8 company wide holidays, short and long-term disability insurance, accident and critical illness insurance, referral bonus policy, employee assistance program, pet insurance, travel assistant program, wellbeing and childcare discounts, benefit advocates, and a learning and development benefit.
Final offers may vary from the amount listed based on qualifications, professional experiences, skills, education, relevant training, geographic location, and other job related factors.

ID.me runs a digital identity wallet that lets people prove who they are online once, then sign in to government agencies, health systems, and online stores without repeating the check. In 2018, it became the first identity provider certified to the federal standard for proving a person's identity online, and in 2021 the IRS adopted it for taxpayers' online accounts. Users photograph a government ID and take a selfie, or confirm who they are with an ID.me agent on a video call, and the result is saved for reuse on other sites. Organizations that accept ID.me pay for each check or through subscriptions, and people use it for free. ID.me was founded in 2010 to verify military members for online discounts and is based in McLean, Virginia.
