Okta Identity Governance (OIG) is Okta's Identity Governance and Administration solution, responsible for some of the most critical and visible workflows in enterprise identity: how people request access, how approvers grant it, how entitlements are enforced, and how organizations prove to auditors that only the right people have the right access.
OIG is the leading contributor to Okta's new product bookings, and it runs inside some of the largest enterprises in the world - the kind of accounts where a single tenant carries hundreds of thousands of identities across thousands of applications.
OIG currently supports high-compliance public sector workloads and plans to expand our footprint to support the most secure, highly classified environments in government.
As a Senior Fullstack Engineer on the OIG (Federal) team, your mission is to adapt the OIG product to the needs of the government customers.
In this role, you will actively design, build, and maintain both robust backend services and intuitive frontend interfaces. This role requires deep expertise in distributed systems and a commitment to AI-native engineering as our standard. You will rethink backend design, validation, and delivery through AI-augmented workflows, ensuring our platform provides secure, interoperable, and scalable access-enforcing the principle of least privilege for every aspect of the product.
