Job Description

Backend Software Engineer

Okta

Role Description We are looking for a Backend Software Engineer who wants to work on hard problems: distributed systems and building software where getting it right really matters. You'll ship code that protects real infrastructure for real organizations. You’ll build foundations that multiple feature teams depend on. When you make something faster, more reliable, or easier to use, it multiplies across the entire product. This is a role for someone who likes thinking about how systems fit together. You'll need strong opinions about what makes a good abstraction, and the flexibility to evolve those abstractions as the product grows. The Okta Privileged Access Management (PAM) is an identity-centric approach to a common and critical privileged access use case. Our elegant Zero Trust architecture is purpose-built for the modern cloud and helps customers solve challenging security and operations pain points at scale. In this role you will: - Be deeply involved in evolving the core architecture of PAM. - Work in our product development teams to build scalable, composable components of our platform. - Be responsible for designing and implementing scalable architecture patterns. - Design and build APIs with OpenAPI Specification that customers rely on for access to production infrastructure. - Work on backend systems written in Go. - Participate in the rotational on-call activities with SRE and product development teams. Qualifications - Are an experienced software engineer with a background in Golang (other languages are also acceptable). - Experienced working with relational databases like PostgreSQL or similar RDBMS technologies. - Have the ability to design database models and backend APIs. - Have experience working with cloud services like Caching, Queues, NoSQL Databases etc. - Experienced working with any cloud provider such as AWS, GCP or Azure. - Thrive in a collaborative environment built on end-to-end ownership. - Love thinking about distributed systems, and the reliability, availability, and performance implications of the decisions made in their design. - Enjoy deep-diving into production metrics, and familiarity with monitoring tools like Splunk, DataDog etc. - Think in terms of systems, services, and APIs. Requirements - 8+ years working as a software engineer. - Experience working with production systems. - Bachelors in CS, or equivalent. Benefits - Annual base salary range for this position for candidates located in Canada is between $160,000 — $200,000 CAD. - Equity (where applicable), bonus, and benefits, including health, dental, and vision insurance. - RRSP with a match, healthcare spending, telemedicine, and paid leave (including PTO and parental leave).
