About the role
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.
Okta Integration Network (OIN)
The Okta Integration Network (OIN) is the platform that lets Okta customers discover, connect, and manage third-party applications and identity providers — from single sign-on and provisioning to newer, higher-order integration patterns as the ecosystem of connected software (including AI agents) continues to grow. It's core infrastructure: the workflows OIN powers run continuously for a very large share of Okta's customer base.
Our team builds and operates all of OIN — from the foundational data model, APIs, and security posture every integration in the network is built on, to the tools partners and customers use to build, test, and ship integrations, to the systems that power what those integrations can actually do once connected. In practice that spans connector metadata and provisioning primitives, partner-facing tooling, and the infrastructure work that keeps a very large, long-lived system fast, secure, and easy to extend as the network grows.
We're actively expanding OIN's scope beyond its original SSO-and-provisioning core — including new integration patterns as AI agents and machine-to-machine access become part of the identity landscape, and a lower-friction path for partners to bring new integrations into the network. You'd be joining at a point where the platform's scope is visibly widening, working closely with product, architecture, and design to help figure out what "right" looks like as much as building it.
Staff Software Engineer, Integration Network (OIN)
As a Staff Software Engineer on the OIN team, you'll be a technical leader for a platform a very large share of Okta's customers depend on every day. You'll independently own complex, ambiguous problems end-to-end — from technical scoping through design, delivery, and production operation — partnering closely with product, architecture, and design to help figure out what "right" looks like as much as building it. You'll also be expected to raise the technical bar for the engineers around you, not just deliver your own code.
We're looking for self-motivated engineers who think from first principles, take pride in high-quality software, and are genuinely kind and collaborative to work with.
