About ID.me
What is ID.me?
ID.me is the world's leading digital identity network — an identity verification and credentialing platform used by U.S. federal and state agencies, healthcare providers, and major retailers to verify who someone is online. Members can also save and use trusted credentials (military service, first responder, student, teacher, etc.) for discounts and access.
The careers page sums up the mission: "To make the world a more trusted place by delivering the highest level of security with the least amount of friction at the lowest possible cost." And the vision: "To be the world's leading digital identity network empowering people to control their own information and to prove their credentials across all channels: online, call center, and in-person." ID.me describes the work culture as Special-Forces-style — "executing against the most difficult missions where others have failed."
Where will I work?
ID.me hires across the U.S. with most roles based in McLean, Virginia or Mountain View, California, plus remote-eligible positions across all U.S. time zones. The careers page emphasises in-office collaboration with multiple lounge areas and a game room.
What is the ID.me team like?
ID.me's careers page is explicit: "Trustworthy Teammates. Elite Performance. Culture is not a set of beliefs. Culture is what you do."
