Position Description

We’re hiring a Staff Full-Stack Engineer to join the Integration Builder team within Okta Workflows. This team owns the core no-code surface that enables both internal teams and third-party developers (ISVs) to build powerful integrations and automation experiences with ease.

As a Staff Engineer, you’ll lead initiatives that span front-end and back-end services — delivering performant, secure, and scalable features. You’ll help define architecture, drive implementation, and collaborate closely with Design, PM, and Platform teams. You’ll also work directly with our technical architects to help shape what we build — and how we build it. This is a high-impact role in a growing, strategic product area with strong executive visibility.

Role Details:

  • Design, build, and maintain end-to-end features using modern JavaScript and cloud-native technologies (React, Node.js, TypeScript, PostgreSQL).
  • Lead technical design for key initiatives, driving quality, scalability, and maintainability.
  • Build reusable and performant UI components for a best-in-class no-code builder experience.
  • Own services throughout their lifecycle — including implementation, testing, deployment, observability, and incident response.
  • Work closely with Product, Design, and Architecture to define the “what” and “how” of features, ensuring solutions are both user-friendly and technically sound.
  • Partner with infrastructure and platform teams to optimize system performance and reliability
  • Mentor and support engineers across the team, fostering a culture of quality, ownership, and continuous improvement.
  • Contribute to cross-functional planning, architectural reviews, and team-wide engineering practices.

Experience: 

  • 6+ years of experience building modern web applications in a full-stack environment.
  • Deep expertise in TypeScript, ReactJS, and Node.js (Express or similar frameworks).
  • Experience designing APIs, working with relational databases (PostgreSQL or similar), and building services in a distributed, cloud-based architecture.
  • A strong product mindset — you work well with Product and Design and care about delivering intuitive and elegant user experiences.
  • Ability to collaborate closely with Architects to make smart technical tradeoffs, and drive alignment across teams.
  • Passion for craftsmanship and high engineering standards (testing, monitoring, documentation, scalability).
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to lead technical discussions and build consensus across functions.
  • A growth mindset and interest in mentoring others and upleveling the team.

Nice to Haves:

  • Experience with PostgreSQL, Docker, and Kubernetes.
  • Exposure to low-code/no-code tools, workflow engines, or visual development platforms.
  • Interest in AI-assisted developer tooling or automation.

Education and Training:

  • Bachelor's in Computer Science, or relevant industry experience
