Job description

from Cursor careers

Our mission is to automate coding. The first step in our journey is to build the best tool for professional programmers, using a combination of inventive research, design, and engineering. Our organization is very flat, and our team is small and talent dense. We particularly like people who are truth-seeking, passionate, and creative. We enjoy spirited debate, crazy ideas, and shipping code.

About the role

We're hiring an Enterprise Platform Engineer to build the foundational systems that make Cursor ready for the world's largest engineering organizations.

Today we have basic organizations, simple IAM primitives, early audit logs, analytics APIs, and admin APIs — but enterprise customers need much more. You will design and build the platform layer that powers organization management, access control, compliance, and administrative tooling across Cursor's product surface. This is a deeply technical IC role focused on building correct, secure, and scalable enterprise infrastructure — not gluing together vendor SDKs.

What you’ll do

  • Build and evolve our organization management system — multi-level org structures, groups, roles, lifecycle, and provisioning via SCIM, so admins can manage thousands of seats without friction.

  • Design and implement RBAC with fine-grained roles, permissions, and resource scopes that cover organizations, teams, agents, and other resources — balancing security with developer ergonomics.
