Join us in building the future of finance. Our mission is to democratize finance for all. An estimated $124 trillion of assets will be inherited by younger generations in the next two decades. The largest transfer of wealth in human history. If you’re ready to be at the epicenter of this historic cultural and financial shift, keep reading. About the team + role We are building an elite team, applying frontier technologies to the world's biggest financial problems. We're looking for bold thinkers. Sharp problem-solvers. Builders who are wired to make an impact. Robinhood isn't a place for complacency, it's where ambitious people do the best work of their careers. We're a high-performing, fast-moving team with ethics at the center of everything we do. Expectations are high, and so are the rewards. The Core Infrastructure team's mission is to build and evolve the foundational platform that every Robinhood engineering team builds on — owning the systems, primitives, and developer-facing abstractions that power 24/7 trading, crypto, and global expansion. We treat infrastructure as a product: reliable, fast to provision, and invisible to the teams above it. As a Senior Staff Software Developer on Core Infrastructure, you will own the architectural evolution of three deeply interconnected domains: service mesh and connectivity, compute platform, and infrastructure provisioning. Your decisions will directly shape engineering velocity, operational reliability, and Robinhood's ability to expand to new regions and markets. This is not an operations role — it's a once-in-a-platform-lifecycle opportunity to redesign the foundation before complexity becomes permanent! This role is based in our Toronto, ON office, with in-person attendance expected at least 3 days per week. At Robinhood, we believe in the power of in-person work to accelerate progress, spark innovation, and strengthen community.

We're a high-performing, fast-moving team with ethics at the center of everything we do. Expectations are high, and so are the rewards. The Load and Fault team sits within Robinhood's Developer Infrastructure organization, with a mission to give every engineering team the tools they need to test their services under real-world conditions before those conditions test them in production. We build the platforms and frameworks that enable load testing, fault injection, and resilience validation at scale — treating reliability as a developer productivity problem, not just an operations one. Our work directly raises the quality bar for every service Robinhood ships, and we partner closely with engineering teams across the organization to make resilience testing a seamless part of the development workflow. As a Senior Software Engineer on the Load and Fault Environments team, you will design and build the infrastructure that lets Robinhood's engineers simulate load, inject faults, and validate system behavior under stress — at the scale of a fast-growing financial platform. You'll own meaningful components of the load testing and fault injection platform, write production-quality code, and collaborate with engineers across infrastructure and product teams to ensure the tooling you build gets adopted and drives real

This is an opportunity to do career-defining work. We're all in on this mission. If you are too, let's talk. About Okta for AI Agents Okta secures access for 20,000 organizations and billions of users. Okta for AI Agents extends that work to the agentic shift. Deploying an AI agent is not like deploying traditional software. You are putting professional work output into production, and it needs deep integration, continuous tuning, and change management. Every agent needs an identity, a scope, an audit trail, and a way to be shut down when it goes wrong. Most enterprises have not built this yet. We are. We hire builders who see the cracks in enterprise agent identity that everyone else has learned to live with. The Role You embed inside four to five of Okta’s most strategic enterprise customers as their dedicated technical partner for agent identity. You sit alongside their identity, platform, and security engineering teams, write production code in their environment, and own the technical outcome from prototype through production. You are a builder-consultant. You go past architecture diagrams to code, debug, and ship bespoke agent identity solutions inside the customer’s environment. You ship secure agents faster for the customer, and you feed real field insight back to Okta product engineering. Responsibilities Become the customer’s trusted technical voice on agent security.
