The Auth0Lab Team We are a small team of engineers exploring new Auth0 products and features ideas. We take things from 0 to 1 and we look to shape the future of identity. Our team has had a big role shaping the identity industry: we were all early at Auth0, which shaped how devs do authentication as part of Auth0Lab we incubated Auth0 FGA which redefined how authorization is done across the industry and we also incubated Auth0 for AI agents which defined auth for AI agents We are currently focused on enabling builders and companies of any size to ship production grade AI agents, by helping them with identity and security. We believe data, and developing our own models will play a huge role in this. The role We are looking for a Principal Applied AI Scientist to take product ideas from 0 to 1 and define how we do new AI product innovation.
