Building authentication, identity, and authorization
Our Platform Engineer Moritz builds identity and access for Lovable, and for the apps its users create.
Lovable lets anyone build a working web app by describing it to an AI. That is a revolution for founders, designers and product teams. It also means a huge number of new apps are being created by people who have never designed a login flow, managed a session or thought about who should see which data.
Someone has to make that part safe by default. Moritz is a Platform Engineer in Lovable's IAM (identity and access management) team, building authentication and authorization for the Lovable platform itself and for the apps built on top of it.
The challenge is unusual. Security has to be strong enough for production, simple enough that an AI can set it up correctly from a prompt, and robust enough to scale with one of the fastest-growing software companies in Europe. Lovable reached $100 million in annual recurring revenue eight months after launch, faster than any software company before it, and doubled that before the end of 2025. Every new user, and every app they create, leans on the identity layer Moritz’s team builds.
Moritz brings a rare combination for the job: a PhD from KTH and several years in engineering and leadership roles at Kivra, where trust and secure access are the product. At Lovable, AI isn't a feature. It's how the whole company works, and that makes it one of the most interesting places in tech to build platform infrastructure right now.
“It's exciting to be at a company that's reimagining how software is built and has embraced AI in everything they do.”
“I immediately felt at home at Coody: lots of friendly, ambitious people who are passionate about their work. Coody found a perfect assignment for me right away, and as a consultant I get an inside look at a lot of interesting companies.”
