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.
The team that built Jeeva AI is building Digital Workers, a new suite of autonomous agents for identity operations and security inside Okta. The team works directly with Todd McKinnon, Okta's co-founder and CEO, with the opportunity to bring this product to Okta's 20,000+ customers. You will help shape the product with the ownership and pace of a startup and the resources of a public company.
You will build the backend and AWS platform that keep these workers running around the clock. The team owns services, connectors, workflow execution, data and production reliability. You will write Python services and infrastructure code that let workers make approved changes and preserve evidence.
Reliable builder: You design for failure and prove that recovery works.
Hands-on engineer: You write production services and improve the tools engineers use every day.
Strong owner: You follow changes through deployment, monitoring and production support.
Senior: Own a backend or platform component, including deployment, tests and production operation.
Staff: Lead a domain such as execution, tenant security, data infrastructure or reliability across teams.
Principal: Set shared backend and platform contracts, resolve system tradeoffs and implement foundational services.
Python FastAPI, AWS Step Functions, Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, Lambda, SQS, EventBridge, API Gateway and containers. Data and security use RDS PostgreSQL, pgvector, S3 Object Lock, KMS, Secrets Manager, CloudWatch and CloudTrail. The frontend uses React and AWS Amplify.
OpenAI and Anthropic model integrations are planned. We are also adding an agent harness and dedicated analytics. ClickHouse is a hiring focus for analytics, and BigQuery or equivalent experience is relevant. The harness and analytics choices remain open.
