Company mission

To improve the connections between people and tools to make companies more productive and secure.

Role

Who you are

  • We are looking for Platform Engineers who are passionate about distributed systems, availability, 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
  • Have 3+ years of software development experience
  • Are proficient in Golang
  • Have an understanding of Kubernetes and containerization
  • Have DevOps experience using cloud-agnostic, cloud-native technologies
  • Demonstrable knowledge of TCP/IP and HTTP fundamentals
  • Have demonstrable expertise working with Microsoft Azure and/or Amazon Web Services
  • Have experience managing infrastructure with Terraform at scale
  • Tend to deliver work incrementally to get feedback and iterate over solutions
  • Have a passion for working on systems that are highly reliable, maintainable, scalable and secure
  • Bring the right attitude to the team: ownership, accountability, and attention to detail
  • Are comfortable working on a fully-distributed team

Desirable

  • Have significant experience working with Redis, Kafka and/or PostgreSQL at scale
  • Familiarity with gRPC
  • Aware of the best practices when creating Docker images

What the job involves

  • 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 with a huge impact. You will get to work with engineers throughout the organization and what you build will be a foundational piece of the infrastructure that allows Auth0 to scale for years to come
  • Provision, deploy, configure and scale AWS and Azure cloud resources via infrastructure-as-code
  • Implement a platform runtime that allows development teams to deploy and manage their services on Kubernetes in AWS and Azure
  • Research and implement solutions that address cross cutting concerns such as service discovery, configuration, routing and scaling
  • Design and develop new services, tools and automation to expose environment functionality to other Auth0 engineering teams
  • Discover and advocate for new technologies to accelerate new environment creation
  • Participate in the team's on-call rotation

Our take

Okta started off as an identity company where organisations, large and small, could tap into the company to have a single sign-on interface to access all cloud applications now centralised. Okta has since expanded to provide identity management at the device as well as the server level.

The new approach towards network security is increasingly based on identification and authentication, and Okta is on track to become the go-to vendor in the space. They aim to do so by developing products that enable people to access applications and other tools more smoothly and securely than ever before.

Okta has taken strides towards expansion through significant employee growth and shuffling executive leadership. The company has also made lateral moves such as tackling governance concerns, opening up new paths for revenue.
