Staff Software Engineer, Developer Platform (Auth0)

ABOUT THE ROLE We're seeking a Staff Software Engineer to build the platform surfaces that developers and AI agents use to configure, extend, and interact with Auth0. As a key member of the Developer Platform team, you'll work at the intersection of API platform design, developer tooling, and emerging standards like MCP (Model Context Protocol). You'll take on ambiguous, high-leverage problems alongside a group of strong senior and staff engineers, and you'll have real influence over how our platform is built for a world where agents are first-class consumers. WHAT YOU'LL DO As a Staff Software Engineer, you'll be responsible for designing and building developer-facing platform surfaces - APIs, MCP tools, CLI integrations, that hold up whether the caller is a developer or an agent. You'll own technical direction for key platform surfaces that make Auth0 consumable by agents, drive cross-cutting technical decisions that keep our platform coherent and easy to build on, and operate peer-to-peer with tech leads across teams. You'll also bring developer's empathy to everything you ship, understanding how developers consume APIs and designing accordingly. WHAT YOU'LL NEED To be successful in this role, you'll need 7+ years of software engineering experience, with meaningful time on platform, SDK, or developer-tooling work. You'll have strong Node.js fundamentals, with Go a plus. You'll also have a track record of designing and shipping APIs or developer-facing surfaces at scale, and be comfortable owning ambiguous problems without heavy top-down scoping. Familiarity with agentic tooling, MCP, or LLM-facing API design is a must, and experience collaborating across engineering, product, and architecture in a fast-moving environment is a plus. WHY REMOTE As a remote employee, you'll have the flexibility to work from anywhere, while still being part of a global community united by a drive to innovate. Our immersive, in-person onboarding experience will accelerate your impact and connect you to our mission and team from day one. BENEFITS Okta offers a comprehensive total rewards package, including an annual base salary range of $160,000 - $220,000 CAD, equity (where applicable), bonus, and benefits, including health, dental, and vision insurance, RRSP with a match, healthcare spending, telemedicine, and paid leave (including PTO and parental leave) in accordance with our applicable plans and policies.
