The posting

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 Auth0 platform secures more than 100 million logins each day for customers all around the world. The Platform Infrastructure team enables Auth0 engineers to move faster by giving them tools to easily deploy and manage their services on AWS and Azure. This is a role within a team that has a huge impact. You will get to work with engineers throughout the organization and what you build will be a cutting-edge, foundational piece of the infrastructure that allows Auth0 to scale for years to come.

We are looking for Engineers who are passionate about distributed systems, performance and scaling, and delivering customer value. Because we build and support the overall Auth0 platform, the ideal candidate is someone who is passionate about infrastructure, operations, and not intimidated by cross-organization coordination and collaboration.

You will:

  • Develop and maintain a scalable platform runtime using infrastructure-as-code, enabling teams to seamlessly deploy and manage services across Kubernetes, AWS, and Azure.
  • Tackle highly ambiguous requirements to architect scalable, resilient infrastructure solutions for cross-cutting concerns (e.g., service discovery, routing), while setting platform best practices.
  • Proactively identify performance bottlenecks and advocate for new technologies to optimize platform resiliency, scale, and cost.
  • Use observability tools like DataDog and Prometheus to design SLIs and enforce platform SLOs.
  • Design secure-by-default infrastructure and collaborate with security teams to ensure compliance.
  • Drive and lead complex, cross-functional initiatives end-to-end, aligning multiple teams around technical strategies and ensuring successful delivery.
  • Act as a technical leader within the team, actively mentoring and elevating the skills of junior and mid-level engineers.
  • Use company-approved AI tools for software engineering, operations, research, and analysis.
  • Participate in the team's on-call rotation.

You might be a good fit if you:

  • 5-8 years of software development experience.
  • Possess deep technical expertise in Golang, Terraform, Kubernetes, and major cloud providers (AWS/Azure) to build complex, modular infrastructure.
  • Demonstrable experience architecting distributed systems and making complex technical tradeoffs (e.g., consistency vs. availability, build vs. buy).
  • Deliver work incrementally, and bring strong operational experience leading incident response, driving RCAs, and implementing preventative measures.
  • Experiment with AI models, exploring the capabilities of different effort levels and context.
  • Are comfortable working on a fully-distributed (remote) team.

Extra Points:

  • Advanced Kubernetes experience (e.g., autoscaling, KEDA, KNative) or expertise in performance/load testing."
  • Experience with Redis, Kafka and/or PostgreSQL at scale.
  • Experience building with agentic AI
  • Have strong opinions about text editors, CAP theorem, or Dota2

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
