Come be part of remarkable. Overview How you can make a difference Every member who logs into HealthEquity trusts us to recognize them instantly and protect them completely

• across 16M+ accounts and a login experience we're actively reinventing. This team has already proven what that looks like in practice: passwordless login is now the default experience for millions of members, with adoption running ahead of industry benchmarks and login time cut by nearly 80%. It's not just a UX win
• passkeys close off the attack vector behind most account takeover attempts before it gets a foothold, and it's a big part of why HealthEquity's fraud rate sits well below industry peers.

You'll lead the engineering organization responsible for building on that: two identity engineering PODs plus a global support team, owning everything from the identity server and core auth APIs to the passkey and account recovery experiences members interact with directly. The mandate goes beyond running what already works

• it's unifying a fragmented login experience into one, extending strong identity to members who've never had an account, and pushing past passwordless into whatever comes next in frictionless, phishing-resistant authentication. You'll own the roadmap, the vendor and staffing strategy, and the architecture
• with real latitude to shape where this platform goes next, not just inherit what's already running. What you'll be doing Build on a proven foundation Own delivery of the identity platform's roadmap
• unifying the team's remaining login experiences into one, extending secure self-service account recovery across web and mobile, and bringing verified identity to members who don't yet have an account
• all in service of a single, unified next-generation app experience Keep the systems members already trust running flawlessly: production reliability, monitoring, and continuous hardening of the identity platform at scale Push the identity frontier Go beyond passwordless
• explore and prototype what's next in phishing-resistant, low-friction authentication, and make the case for where the platform should go Build with AI-native engineering practices as a first-class part of how the team designs, ships, and tests
