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

Company Description

Position Description

We are seeking an experienced Full Stack Senior Software Engineer to play a key role in building and scaling the Okta Recovery Vault (ORV). This team is responsible for Okta's enterprise-grade soft-delete and object recovery capability,

designed to protect critical identity objects (Users and Groups) from accidental or malicious deletion.

As a Senior Engineer, you will own the technical design, implementation, and operational reliability of critical components within our real-time, high-fidelity recovery system — spanning backend services and the admin-facing UI that customers

use to review and restore their data. You will solve complex engineering problems around identity preservation (UUIDs) and relationship restoration—including group memberships, app assignments, and password hashes—while also crafting

intuitive, performant workflows that let admins confidently recover from data loss events.

Job Duties and Responsibilities

- Feature Execution: Drive the technical design and end-to-end implementation of complex features, such as granular and bulk recovery workflows across Free and Advanced Resilience tiers — from backend APIs to the admin console UI.

- Component Design: Design and build reliable core components for real-time recovery systems that capture deletion events, support scalable data restoration, and surface clear, actionable recovery status to end users.

- UI/UX for Recovery Workflows: Build responsive, accessible front-end experiences (e.g., recovery dashboards, bulk restore flows, audit views) that make complex backend recovery operations easy for admins to understand and act on.

- Relationship & State Management: Solve challenging engineering problems around relationship restoration (group memberships, app assignments, device enrollments) and state consistency, and reflect that state accurately in the UI.

- Security & Compliance: Implement secure logging and tracking for all recovery operations (soft-delete, restore, permanent-delete) in Syslog to adhere to strict audit and compliance standards.

- Product & Cross-Functional Alignment: Partner with Product Managers, Designers, and technical leads to clarify requirements, define technical scope, and break down complex projects into actionable milestones across the stack.
