The AI-Core Team

The team is building a scalable Agentic AI platform for agents that run real engineering work, agents that write code, triage incidents, investigate alerts, remediate vulnerabilities, upgrade libraries, patch flaky tests, automate runbooks, and other workloads across Okta's infra. Owning this platform means owning the hard cross cutting problems: agent identity, delegated access, secure isolated execution, orchestration, and governance, at the scale and reliability bar that Infra demands. The work is novel and high ownership, and the candidate should be drawn to problems the industry hasn't solved yet.

What You'll Work On

• Design and implement backend APIs and services that make up the agentic platform

• Build the agent identity and machine-to-machine
