Okta
Get to know Okta
Okta is The World’s Identity Company. We free everyone to safely use any technology, anywhere, on any device or app. Our flexible and neutral products, Okta Platform and Auth0 Platform, provide secure access, authentication, and automation, placing identity at the core of business security and growth.
At Okta, we celebrate a variety of perspectives and experiences. We are not looking for someone who checks every single box - we’re looking for lifelong learners and people who can make us better with their unique experiences.
Join our team! We’re building a world where Identity belongs to you.
Are you passionate about the intersection of Identity, Se and Artificial Intelligence? Join Okta as we define the future of secure AI through our "Okta for AI Agents" initiative. As AI agents increasingly act on behalf of humans and organizations, the need for robust identity, permissions, and auditability has never been more critical.
You will play a central role in shaping a brand-new product area, defining how AI agents are authenticated, authorized, and governed. This is a high-impact, hands-on opportunity to collaborate cross-functionally and deliver a differentiated solution that secures the next generation of automated workflows.
Responsibilities
- Customer & Stakeholder Engagement: Collaborate with AI platform developers, security architects, and internal stakeholders to distill feature asks, gather feedback, and ensure product-market fit for AI agent identity.
- Product Scope: Define and own the product strategy and roadmap for AI agent-specific capabilities, including agent-to-agent authentication and delegated authority.
- Roadmap Ownership: Identify and prioritize the development of new features such as dynamic session management for AI, "on-behalf-of" token exchange, and agent-specific audit logs.
- Technical Collaboration: Work closely with engineering and architecture teams to define protocols (e.g., extensions to OAuth/OIDC) and deployment models that align with modern AI orchestration frameworks.
- Delivery & Execution: Drive cross-functional execution with design, engineering, and documentation teams to deliver high-quality features on time.
- Market Awareness: Track industry trends in LLMs, agentic frameworks (e.g., LangChain, AutoGPT), and emerging AI security standards to develop differentiated solutions.
- Data-Driven Insights: Leverage product data to continually improve agent lifecycle management and drive adoption within the developer community.
- Subject Matter Expertise: Serve as the subject matter expert for AI Identity, enabling marketing and technical sales teams with the tools needed to position Okta for AI use cases.
Required Experience
- 5+ years of technical product management experience in enterprise-scale SaaS products, or an equivalent background demonstrating core PM competencies.
- Strong knowledge of Identity and Access Management (IAM) protocols such as OAuth2, OIDC, and SAML.
- Deep understanding of API security and the developer experience for integrating security services.
- Analytical and decisive: Ability to drive action even with incomplete or ambiguous information in the rapidly evolving AI landscape.
- Excellent communication skills: Ability to work cross-functionally with research, design, engineering, and customer success teams.
- Technical background: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or equivalent experience that allows you to influence technical design decisions.
Preferred Experience
- Hands-on experience with AI/ML frameworks or building products that leverage Large Language Models (LLMs).
- Experience with developer-centric products, such as building with SDKs, APIs, or no-code/low-code integration platforms.
- Familiarity with Zero Trust architecture and how it applies to non-human entities and automated workloads.
- Prior experience in a "Zero to One" product environment, launching new products from initial concept to GA.
