The opportunity
Secure Every Identity, from AI to Human Identity is the key to unlocking the potential of AI. Okta secures AI by building the trusted, neutral infrastructure that enables organizations to safely embrace this new era.
What you'll do
Build and Own the Localization Automation Framework: Design, develop, and maintain core automation workflows and system infrastructure using agentic workflows, Python, and REST APIs, seamlessly connecting enterprise TMS platforms with content repositories, CI/CD pipelines, and internal microservices.
Individual Contributor & Hands-On Development: This is an individual contributor, hands-on software development role. You must be comfortable writing, testing, deploying, and maintaining production-grade code (primarily Python) entirely on your own.
Spearhead AI and Technology Integration: Research, evaluate, and implement cutting-edge localization technologies by programmatically integrating LLM APIs and Custom Machine Translation pipelines into proprietary automation frameworks, along with advanced TMS features, to improve the quality, speed, and cost-effectiveness of our workflows.
Provide Technical Oversight and Systems Integrity: Act as the sole software engineering authority for resolving high-impact architectural failures in the localization stack. Independently conduct deep-dive root cause analysis on complex integration issues, API payload/file parsing conflicts, and distributed system bottlenecks to ensure uninterrupted uptime for global content pipelines.
Lead Code-Level i18n Engineering & Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with localization and product engineering teams to perform deep-dive i18n code reviews (e.g., reviewing React, Go, or Java codebases), construct Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) static analysis scripts, and define structural architectural patterns so that codebases are natively globalized without taking on direct product feature development.
System Architecture & TMS Administration: Act as the core systems engineer for enterprise TMS instances (e.g., Smartling, XTM), handling schema configurations, webhooks, payload parsing, and custom data connectors.
What they're looking for
- Build Developer Tooling & Shift-Left CI/CD Pipeline Guardrails: Develop CLI tools, custom linters, and pseudo-localization build hooks in CI/CD pipelines to catch string concatenation, hardcoding, and UI truncation issues automatically during build and pull-request phases.
- years of experience in software or globalization engineering, with a proven: track record of architecting localization solutions at scale.
- Expert-level proficiency in Python, API development, and software engineering: principles to build, test, and maintain robust automation infrastructure and system integrations.
- Experience with enterprise CMS or MSM platforms (e.g., Adobe Experience Manager).
