Tailscale is building the new Internet by delivering software that makes it easy to securely interconnect people and their devices, no matter where they are. The Product Strategy team needs to show developers and organizations why Tailscale should be their go-to connectivity solution, both internally and for customer-facing workloads, by building proof-of-concepts, working directly with customers on integrations, and demonstrating how Tailscale's emerging platform can be leveraged to solve real problems.

- Access control: RBAC/ABAC models, session management, MFA, passwordless auth
- Technical skills: Go and/or Python (TypeScript a plus); third-party API integrations; basic networking
- AI/LLM experience: Use LLMs daily for planning and development; comfortable building tools/apps on top of LLMs
- Identity infrastructure: IdP platforms, identity sync/provisioning, and directory services.
