Okta is seeking an experienced Senior Software Engineer in Test for our UI Engineering team.

The ideal candidate has deep experience in JavaScript/TypeScript, has designed and scaled UI test frameworks, and has a track record of setting technical direction across teams rather than just executing within one.
Design and own scalable UI test architecture and frameworks used across multiple frontend teams
Build and maintain cross-browser (CB) and visual regression testing (VRT) suites to catch UI regressions before release
Establish automated and manual accessibility (a11y/WCAG) testing practices integrated into CI
Design and maintain localization/globalization (L10n/G11n) test coverage across locales, languages, and RTL layouts
Ensure out-of-the-box (OOB) configurations and default behaviors are verified across all supported environments
Review requirements and design specs to develop test plans and test strategy for platform-level and frontend initiatives
Work with engineering management to scope and plan cross-team quality engineering efforts
Clearly communicate and document QE architecture and plans for scrum teams to review and adopt
Respond to Production issues/alerts and customer issues during on-call rotation
Mentor SDETs, new hires, and interns; influence engineering-wide quality standard
5+ years of quality engineering experience with deep, hands-on test automation expertise
Strong proficiency in JavaScript/TypeScript, with the ability to read and write production-quality frontend code
Hands-on expertise with modern UI testing technologies (e.g., Playwright, Cypress, Selenium WebDriver)
Proven experience with cross-browser testing (CBT), visual regression testing (VRT), accessibility testing, and localization/globalization testing
Demonstrated experience designing test architecture and frameworks from the ground up, not just writing tests within an existing one
Ability to operate and lead with minimal supervision, setting technical direction for other engineers
Ability to quickly learn new technologies and provide input at an architectural level
B.S. Computer Science or related field
