Okta is seeking a Staff Full-Stack Engineer to join the Integration Builder team within Okta Workflows. This team owns the core no-code surface for building integrations and automation experiences.

The focus is on building a secure, no-code automation platform that enables organizations to build identity-centric workflows.

What you'd actually do

  1. Design, build, and maintain end-to-end features using modern JavaScript and cloud-native technologies (React, Node.js, TypeScript, PostgreSQL).
  2. Lead technical design for key initiatives, driving quality, scalability, and maintainability.
  3. Build reusable and performant UI components for a best-in-class no-code builder experience.
  4. Own services throughout their lifecycle — including implementation, testing, deployment, observability, and incident response.
  5. Work closely with Product, Design, and Architecture to define the “what” and “how” of features, ensuring solutions are both user-friendly and technically sound.
