Desirable

• Okta’s Customer Identity Cloud (CIC), powered by Auth0 technology, 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 whilst 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
• We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our IAM Enterprise Federations team
• Be a part of a fast paced, agile team
• Design and build features using technologies such as Node.js (Javascript/Typescript), AWS, Azure, MongoDB, PostgreSQL and Kubernetes
• 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
