Original job description

Secure Every Identity, from AI to Human

Identity is the key to unlocking the potential of AI. Okta secures AI by building the trusted, neutral infrastructure that enables organizations to safely embrace this new era. This work requires a relentless drive to solve complex challenges with real-world stakes. We are looking for builders and owners who operate with speed and urgency and execute with excellence.

This is an opportunity to do career-defining work. We're all in on this mission. If you are too, let's talk.

Opportunity

As a Staff Engineer on the OIG team, you will be involved into development, design, and maintenance of our product to serve enterprise customers at scale. You will involve the architecture and evolution of our product features - spanning the across different access governance personas - and work collaboratively across engineering, product, and design to deliver features that are secure, scalable, and delightful to use.

This is a role for someone who thinks in systems, leads with craft, and is energized by the challenge of building enterprise-grade software that millions of users depend on.

This is a rare opportunity to join a team where your technical decisions will directly shape how thousands of enterprises manage access governance at scale, where the technical challenges are genuinely hard, and where the work you ship will be seen and felt by real users every day.

Job Duties And Responsibilities

Take end-to-end ownership of feature areas - from technical design through implementation, testing, deployment, and post-launch monitoring
Design, build, and ship high-quality, production-ready features across the OIG system, with a focus on correctness, reliability, and performance
Quickly deliver high-quality bug fixes and handle customer-reported issues
Write clean, well-tested, maintainable code and hold yourself and teammates to a high bar for engineering quality
Partner with our Product Development, QA, and Site Reliability Engineering teams for scoping the development and deployment work

Required Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities

8+ years of software engineering experience, with a demonstrated ability to independently own and deliver complex features in a production environment
Proven track record of architecting and delivering large-scale, distributed systems in production environments serving enterprise customers
Deep expertise in microservices, event-driven architectures, APIs, and data modeling at scale
Strong proficiency in one or more of: Java, Kotlin, Go, or equivalent JVM/cloud-native languages used in Okta's backend stack
Demonstrated ability to influence without authority - driving technical alignment across multiple teams and stakeholders
Experience designing systems that meet enterprise reliability, scalability, and security requirements (think: multi-tenancy, high availability, audit logging, RBAC/ABAC)
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to make complex technical topics accessible to both engineers and non-engineers

Preferred if you have experience in any of the following!

Experience building identity, access management, or governance (IAM/IGA) products or platforms
Familiarity with workflow engines or approval/routing systems (e.g., finite state machines, BPM-style systems)
Experience with enterprise SaaS platforms serving large, complex customer organizations
Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and modern observability tooling

Education

B.S. Computer Science or equivalent
