THE ENGINEERING OPPORTUNITY

We are looking for an experienced Site Reliability Engineer to join Okta in our Emerging Products Group. At Okta our motto is “Always On”, and nowhere do we embrace that more than in Okta’s Infrastructure Platform pillar. We strive to build the most reliable and performant systems on the planet through the skillful use of automation. We’ve created an integrated system that securely connects any person via any device to the technologies they need to do their most significant work.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys working on large scale cloud production systems and gains pride from seeing those systems handle anything the Internet can throw at them. This person will be a core team member of our EPG SRE team.
If you like to be challenged and have a passion for solving problems at scale with modern tooling, automation, testing, and tuning, then we would love to hear from you. The ideal candidate is someone who exemplifies the ethics of, “If you have to do something more than once, automate it,” and who can rapidly self-educate on new concepts and tools.

• Design, build, and operate Okta’s global production infrastructure
• Daily coding, scripting, and development - Go, Python, Terraform, etc.
• Support a highly available and large scale multi-cloud environment as part of an on-call rotation
• Engage with engineering teams across the company, guiding and empowering them to adopt best practices for reliable and secure service deployment.
• Collaborate on modernizing existing workloads, aligning them with our continuous platform improvements.
• Identify manual processes and drive the development of cutting-edge automation tools to streamline operations.
• Contribute to our mission of building a more robust, elegant, and scalable system through the creation of innovative tools, platform capabilities, and comprehensive documentation.
• Demonstrate your expertise by responding swiftly and efficiently to production incidents, diving deep into complex systems failures to drive team and organization learning, and pushing forward technical and process improvements.
