Authlete careers

Authlete is a Web service for developers who want to develop their own Web APIs of their services. To be concrete, Authlete is a BaaS which helps users to implement OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect.

A company has to implement OAuth 2.0 (and OpenID Connect) as prerequisites to provide Web APIs of its service. However, it requires enormous time and effort to implement the specifications. Also, managing data related to the authorization system is an annoyance. It is Authlete that solves such problems. Authlete does correctly support an overwhelming number of related specifications (note that even Facebook has errors in its OAuth implementation) and host related data. All a user has to do is to register metadata of his/her service. Authlete also provides a Web console for client application developers, which otherwise must be implemented by each service.

Authlete is a rare BaaS for “authorization” (not "authentication") and aiming at becoming a fundamental service for Web APIs.
