Job description

Senior Software Engineer, Enterprise Federations (Auth0)

Toronto

Get to know Okta

Okta is The World’s Identity Company. We free everyone to safely use any technology—anywhere, on any device or app. Our Workforce and Customer Identity Clouds enable secure yet flexible access, authentication, and automation that transforms how people move through the digital world, putting Identity at the heart of business security and growth.

At Okta, we celebrate a variety of perspectives and experiences. We are not looking for someone who checks every single box - we’re looking for lifelong learners and people who can make us better with their unique experiences.

Join our team! We’re building a world where Identity belongs to you.

The Enterprise Federations Team

Auth0 is an easy-to-implement authentication and authorization platform designed by developers for developers. We make access to applications safe, secure, and seamless for the more than 100 million daily logins around the world. Our modern approach to identity enables this Tier-Ø global service to deliver convenience, privacy, and security so customers can focus on innovation.

Enterprise Federations is responsible for building and maintaining Auth0’s Enterprise Connections capabilities. B2B SaaS and Enterprise applications often have a need to integrate with other Identity Providers in order to allow their users to authenticate in the way that is most convenient and secure for them. For example, a business already using Customer Identity Cloud for their customer-facing applications and Okta’s Workforce Identity Cloud (or a third-party Identity Provider) for their workforce identity needs may want to allow their own employees to login to their customer apps with their work accounts. This is where Enterprise Connections comes in. This capability allows users to authenticate using a wide variety of Identity Providers through a ‘federated’ connection while isolating the application builders from the complexities and idiosyncrasies of each provider. It is the Enterprise Federations team’s responsibility to make sure this works seamlessly.

The Senior Software Engineer Opportunity

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Enterprise Federations team.

What you’ll be doing

• Be a part of a fast paced, agile team.
• Collaborate with industry leading experts to implement the cutting-edge of Identity Protocols and Open Standards such as OpenID Connect, OAuth and SAML
• Maintain and operate services with extremely high scale
• Participate in scheduled on-call rotations

What you’ll bring to the role

• Experience working on systems that are highly-reliable, maintainable and scalable.
• A systematic problem-solving approach, coupled with strong communication skills and a sense of ownership and drive
• Experience with cloud environments (AWS and Azure preferred)
• The ability to communicate your ideas and collaborate with other team members effectively in a remote working environment.
• An interest in designing, analyzing, and troubleshooting large-scale distributed systems
• Enthusiasm to work with and learn more about Identity Protocols such as OAuth, OIDC and SAML

And extra credit if you have experience in any of the following!

• Existing knowledge of Identity Protocols such as OAuth, OIDC and SAML
• Existing knowledge of security engineering and application security
• Proven experience and understanding of architecture principles across infrastructure platforms, security, data, integration, and application layers
