The Product
Okta’s Customer Identity Cloud (CIC), powered by Auth0 technology, is an easy-to-implement authentication and authorization platform designed by developers for developers. We make access to applications safe, secure, and seamless for the more than 100 million daily logins around the world. Our modern approach to identity enables this Tier-Ø global service to deliver convenience, privacy, and security so customers can focus on innovation.
The Team
The Delegated Administration team extends Auth0’s B2B features with functionality that allows enterprise SaaS applications to empower their business customers to easily set up and configure login and permissions for their users themselves. We build intuitive and delightful experiences that remove unnecessary administrative overhead and make it simple for customers of SaaS applications to set up and manage access.. Our work is cross-cutting and always heavily customer driven.
We work in NodeJS (JavaScript and TypeScript) and use PostgreSQL for our data needs. Our services run on AWS and Azure and we lean heavily on containers for both our development and production needs.
