Lumos

We founded Lumos in 2020 to build an Autonomous Identity platform that automatically discovers and manages access across applications. Our platform gives companies a unified way to control access, which improves security and productivity.

Our offerings include Albus, an Identity AI Agent that integrates with existing identity governance tools, and an AI-Native Identity Governance Platform for end-to-end solutions. Albus uses AI-powered Role Mining to create RBAC/ABAC policies from HRIS data, app assignments, and usage logs. It also has Agentic Access Reviews that use peer group analysis and usage anomalies for administrator-overseen approvals. Our LLM-based Identity Analyst helps identify anomalous access, dormant accounts, policy drift, and SoD violations through natural language queries.

The platform supports access reviews, self-service access, and workflows for new hires, role changes, and departures. Setup is fast, thanks to AI-generated connectors, an on-prem agent, an SDK, and webhooks. We focus on Identity Governance, SaaS Management, Privileged Access Management, Software Asset Management, and Identity and Access Management for software development companies. Pinterest, Github, and Roku use our services.

Our mission is to change how companies manage access, applications, and identities. We cultivate a culture of innovation, valuing curiosity and impact.

Our core values guide our work:

• Set the Standard: We strive for high-quality work, welcome feedback, act with urgency, and commit to finding or creating solutions.
• Discover To Deliver: We prioritize curiosity and principled thinking, focusing on understanding problems and evaluating trade-offs.
• Paint In Pink: We encourage playful boldness, expansive thinking, optimistic communication, and engaging others with new ideas.
• Care Genuinely: We support our co-workers and customers, offer help proactively, and build strong relationships.

We are a 100% remote-first company, operating with a “Remote By Design, Connected By Intention” philosophy. Even though we are remote, we stay connected through annual offsites, in-person gatherings at our San Francisco and New York hubs, and our “Humans of Lumos” spotlight series.

Our culture values innovation, curiosity, and impact. We encourage employees to take on meaningful challenges and grow with their teammates. As an early-stage company, we prioritize operational excellence, customer focus, and an inclusive, learning-oriented environment. We support both manager and individual contributor development, reinforcing our strong cultural values throughout the organization.

We are currently in a growth phase, expanding our team from around 120 to over 150 employees.

We are a 100% remote company, and our work hours typically align within +/-4 hours of Pacific Time. We also have hub offices in San Francisco and New York.

Our benefits include comprehensive medical, vision, and dental coverage. We cover one annual offsite and two coworking trips each year. Employees get an optimal work-from-home setup, and flexible or unlimited PTO with a minimum time off policy to ensure everyone gets enough rest. We offer up to four months (16 weeks) of parental leave.

Additional perks include a monthly wellness stipend, a 401k matching plan, and a $1,000 annual Learning and Development stipend.
