Manager, Software Engineering - Ping Identity

At Ping Identity, we believe in making digital experiences both secure and seamless for all users, without compromise. We call this digital freedom. And it's not just something we provide our customers. It's something that inspires our company. People don't come here to join a culture that's built on digital freedom. They come to cultivate it.

Our intelligent, cloud identity platform lets people shop, work, bank, and interact wherever and however they want. Without friction. Without fear.

While protecting digital identities is at the core of our technology, protecting individual identities is at the core of our culture. We champion every identity. One of our core values, Respect Individuality, reminds us to celebrate differences so you are empowered to bring your authentic self to work.

We're headquartered in Denver, Colorado and we have offices and employees around the globe. We serve the largest, most demanding enterprises worldwide, including more than half of the Fortune 100. At Ping Identity, we're changing the way people and businesses think about cybersecurity, digital experiences, and identity and access management.

Note: This is a hands-on technical leadership role with a Principal-level technical bar

About the role

Ping Identity’s Developer Platform team (internally known as DevTools) sits at the center of how our multitenant SaaS products are built, tested, promoted, and operated. We own critical parts of the engineering system that help product teams ship safely and quickly: CI/CD pipelines, developer workflows, self-service platform capabilities, and AI-enabled engineering tooling.

This is a high-bar role for a hands-on technical leader who can drive transformational change across our developer platform, lead engineers, shape technical direction, and directly improve how software gets built and delivered. The right candidate has already done something similar before in a modern SaaS environment and can point to real results in areas like CI/CD, developer workflows, release automation, or AI-enabled engineering systems.

What you’ll own

• Lead the Bangalore-based team and set technical direction for the developer platform, including CI/CD, release automation, self-service workflows, and AI-enabled engineering tooling.
• Own pipeline reliability as a product, including delivery health, time-to-feedback, release safety, and developer trust in platform signals.
• Stay actively hands-on in architecture, technical reviews, incident analysis, automation, and selective implementation work while driving transformational change in how engineers build, test, and ship software.
• Partner across engineering to remove bottlenecks across build, test, deployment, and promotion flows, and improve the paved-road experience for developers.
