Oops, totally butchered that formatting. Oh well.

Is there a document on formatting somewhere? Some people seem to create beautiful posts, but honestly I’ve never seen any official defence material on it.

Okta is the leading independent provider of identity for the enterprise.

I am one of the founders of ScaleFT, which was acquired by Okta in July. I’m hiring for multiple teams at Okta, looking for software engineers, SREs, or anyone in-between. Sorry, no interns or new-grads this month.

-- ScaleFT Team --

The ScaleFT team joined Okta through acquisition over the summer. We’re hard at work on our product which offers infrastructure teams a better way to manage SSH (and RDP) access to servers. Our stack is mostly Go, combined with Postgres, Kafka, Cassandra and more.

To apply for the ScaleFT team use the email address in my profile. Specify whether you’re interested in a primarily software engineering (ONSITE in any of the offices noted above) or SRE (ONSITE or REMOTE within the US) role.

-- Engineering Security Team --

The EngSec team is responsible for key security components of Okta’s main product (Java, MySQL, Redis, etc), as well as deployment and operation of security-related infrastructure. If you’re a security expert, or an experienced software engineer / SRE who would love to work on securing large scale infrastructure I’d love to hear from you.

Software Engineer, Security (ONSITE in any of the offices noted above): to apply, contact me at the email in my profile.

Streak | Site Lead | Vancouver BC | ONSITE

Streak is establishing our first engineering office outside of San Francisco. We know that it takes focus and intentional planning to make a distributed office a success, and we're looking to partner with an experienced engineer to take on the role of site lead and build out the office.

Your day to day will include:

- People Management: Work with Vancouver engineers to make sure they're happy, healthy, and engaged. Ensure that the team grows in a way that makes sense for both the office and Streak overall. Lead hiring in Vancouver and work with the Streak recruiting team to source great candidates. Facilitate communication both within the site and with the San Francisco team.

- Engineering: We're not particular about where in the stack you're looking to contribute (see our existing engineering reqs for some possibilities, but we're flexible), but we are looking for somebody with a strong engineering background who wants to be hands-on as the team gets off the ground. As the team grows, we'll figure out together what division of time makes sense.

- Site coordination: Figure out office logistics, which events we should be attending, how we should set up lunch catering, etc.

We are excited about you if you:

- You're an experienced engineer. You've contributed significantly to an evolving codebase and have the learnings to show from it.

- You're an experienced leader. You've been a people manager, a product manager, or a tech lead for a significant team or product.

- You're excited to own an engineering office end-to-end.

It would be phenomenal if:

- You have experience with distributed teams, especially in management.

- You're familiar with the tech ecosystem in Vancouver. We're new here ourselves and would love to partner with someone who knows their way around.

To learn more about the company and how we operate check out our careers page (https://www.streak.com/careers).

Please email me directly if you're interested in this position: omar@streak.com
