TL;DR · Staff Corporate Engineer

Instacart seeks a Staff Corporate Engineer to join its IT organization and define the technical strategy for security-critical workforce platforms such as Okta identity management, device trust programs, and office networks in San Francisco, New York City, and Toronto. This senior individual contributor role involves setting long-term architectural frameworks, engineering standards, and automation blueprints for identity, access, and network infrastructure while serving as a technical authority across Corporate Engineering and driving cross-functional alignment with Security Engineering, Enterprise Applications, Workplace, Compliance, and Help Desk. The ideal candidate has over 10 years of experience in corporate IT engineering, deep expertise in IAM and endpoint systems, hands-on ownership of an enterprise Okta tenant at scale, and proficiency in Infrastructure-as-Code using Terraform. They should also have a strong track record of technical leadership, setting architectural direction, and driving cross-functional alignment without managerial authority.

What you'll do

  • Define and own the long-term identity architecture strategy for Instacart's Okta platform.
  • Establish engineering standards and automation blueprints for identity and access management.
  • Drive the evolution of office network architecture to a zero-trust model across multiple locations.
  • Own IT endpoint security strategies, including MDM systems for Mac and Windows devices.
  • Serve as technical authority during major IT incidents, driving systemic improvements post-incident.

What we're looking for

  • 10+ years of experience in corporate IT engineering with expertise in IAM and endpoint systems.
  • Deep hands-on ownership of an enterprise Okta tenant (over 5,000 users) including architecture decisions.
  • Expert-level proficiency with Infrastructure-as-Code: Terraform, scripting languages, REST API/webhook integration.
  • Experience designing and implementing identity governance using Okta Workflows or equivalent IGA platform.
  • Proven track record of technical leadership in setting architectural direction and driving cross-functional alignment.
