Staff Security Engineer, TDI
OktaSecure Every Identity, from AI to Human
Identity is the key to unlocking the potential of AI. Okta secures AI by building the trusted, neutral infrastructure that enables organizations to safely embrace this new era. 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.
The Technology, Data, and Intelligence (TDI) Team
Okta is the leading independent identity provider. The Technology, Data, and Intelligence (TDI) organization is the engine that powers Okta's global workforce, providing the technology and systems that enable our employees to do their best work.
The Staff Security Engineer Opportunity
We are seeking a highly skilled and hands-on Staff Security Engineer with a DevSecOps & Issue Management focus to join the TDI Security team. In this role, you will be embedded directly within our technical environments, working side-by-side with engineering and operations teams to strengthen Okta’s security posture across infrastructure, cloud, and business systems.
This is a tactical and strategic role; you will build a centralized Security Posture Analytics and Reporting capability that aggregates findings, remediation status, and risk data across Okta's security tools to improve visibility, accountability, and execution. The focus is on automating issue tracking and ownership assignment, identifying and routing unowned findings, partnering with remediation teams to accelerate closure, and developing remediation solutions where none currently exist. Longer term, leverage AI to simplify security posture management, increase trust in the data, automate analysis and prioritization, and provide actionable insights that help TDI proactively manage security risk at scale.
The ideal candidate combines deep technical security expertise with the ability to troubleshoot in complex environments and drive measurable improvements across the security posture management lifecycle.
You’ll partner closely with Security, TDI SRE, TDI Engineering and SaaS application teams to implement/develop agentic-first scalable security controls, automate scanning and remediation workflows, and ensure our platforms—from AWS and to enterprise SaaS applications like Salesforce, ERP, Google Workspace, Slack, and Zoo
