About the role

We’re looking for a staff frontend engineer on the Agent Access Policies sub-team. Operating under the larger Okta Secures AI, the Agent Access Policies team owns Agent Access Policies and enables least-privilege agentic access to enterprise resources, giving administrators per-agent control over which tools an agent may call and which employees it may act for.

This team works on policies that replace broad, connection-level agent access with per-agent, per-resource, per-tool policy decisions and enforcement evaluated at runtime on every request, including which employees a delegated agent is allowed to act for.

You will share our passion and great pride in elegant solutions and will join an engineering team that strongly believes in designing for scale, rigorous code reviews, automated testing, and an iterative process to build high-quality next-generation enterprise software.

• Lead, design, architect and build high-quality scalable software by enforcing best practices around software engineering architecture and processes
• Collaborate with product owners, UX, and engineering teams to scope and plan engineering efforts and dependencies
• Own your code at all stages of the lifecycle - design, implementation, test automation, delivery, and monitoring - to provide high-quality products to our customers.
• Contribute to the design and implementation of new products and features while also working down our existing technical debt 
• Raise the bar on engineering excellence by improving standard methodologies, producing best in class of code, documentation, testing, and monitoring
• Conduct code reviews, retrospectives, and other continuous improvement activities
• Collaborate with QA, Technical Support, Documentation, and UX team
• Be a mentor for colleagues and help promote knowledge-sharing

What you’ll bring to the role

• 8+ years of software engineering experience building highly reliable, mission-critical software.
• Extensive knowledge of JavaScript language, along with experience building Express and ReactJS applications.
• Experience shipping robust services and user interfaces for production-grade applications in an agile, product-oriented environment.
• Strong experience with cross browser compatibility and optimization techniques
• Strong understanding of debugging scalable, high performance web applications built with reusability and componentization in mind
• Experience working with cloud systems at scale.
• Understanding of web security attacks and prevention.
• Excellent grasp of software development and testing principles.
• Excellent communication skills and strong product sense.
