This work requires a relentless drive to solve complex challenges with real-world stakes. We are looking for builders and owners who operate with speed and urgency and execute with excellence.

This is an opportunity to do career-defining work. We're all in on this mission. If you are too, let's talk.

At Okta, we’re building the future of secure, enterprise-grade AI. We’re looking for a Senior AI Engineer to help design and scale our Agentic AI Platform — the foundation that enables enterprise teams to build, deploy, and manage intelligent AI agents securely and at scale.

What you will do:

Design and develop platform services for AI agents, including orchestration, lifecycle management, observability, and guardrails.

Collaborate daily with US counterparts to align on architecture, share roadmaps, and ensure global consistency.

Build scalable APIs, frameworks, and reusable components that enable teams to rapidly create and deploy secure AI agents.

Contribute to monitoring, evaluation, and governance features that make AI adoption safe, reliable, and enterprise-ready.

Partner with Applied AI engineers, product managers, and designers to ensure the platform supports real-world use cases.

Stay current with advances in agentic AI, orchestration frameworks, and enterprise AI infrastructure.

What we are looking for :

5–8 years of software engineering experience, with at least 3+ years in AI/ML platforms or intelligent automation.

3+ years in Python preferred, Java, Node.js, or Go.

2+ years with modern front-end frameworks (e.g., React, Vue, Angular), principles of accessibility (a11y), and an ability to collaborate effectively with Product & Design.
