If you are too, let's talk.</p></div><p><strong>About Okta Secures AI Team</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;The Okta for AI Agents Team is building the future of digital identity management. The way companies are using agents and allowing them access is undergoing a fundamental shift, enabling teams to move fast while staying secure.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Our North Star is clear: To get AI right, you have to get identity right. We are not just managing identities; we are building the industry's first Identity Security Fabric for the agentic era. As organizations rapidly deploy AI, these non-human entities are acting with access to critical tools, often bypassing traditional perimeters and creating a 'Shadow AI' crisis. Our mission is to move identity from a reactive gatekeeper to a unified control plane, transforming AI risk into business ROI.</p>
<p>We are tackling this by implementing a comprehensive four-pillar maturity model: Discover, Onboard, Protect, and Govern. We are driving innovation by defining the standards for Agentic Identity—including pioneer work with securing AI Agents and support for protocols like MCP. You will be helping us build the infrastructure that allows enterprises to scale AI safely, ensuring every access decision—whether made by a human or an automated agent—is authenticated, authorized, and audited at scale.</p>
<p>We are a diverse team of engineers, product managers, and designers who are bringing Okta’s expertise in identity to define the future of Agent Identity management, focusing on enablement while staying secure.</p>
<p><strong>About the role</strong></p>
<p>As a Principal Software Engineer on the Agent Access Policies sub-team in the Okta Secures AI, you will serve as the technical leader and compass for the Okta Secures AI Team. You'll work across the breadth of the platform, tackling the highly complex, vaguely specified problems that span it and turning them into clear technical directions the team can execute against, without day-to-day oversight.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Above all, you'll own how the platform is architected to scale: the distributed systems behind it, the reliability and consistency guarantees developers depend on, and the coherence that keeps it easy to build on as usage grows. You'll champion the team's technical execution, raise the engineering bar, mentor the people around you, and partner with tech leads across teams to keep the wider platform aligned. You'll have real influence over how our platform holds up in a world where developers and agents are both first-class consumers.</p>
<p><strong>What you’ll be doing&nbsp;</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Set the technical direction for the Agent Access Policies framework, and make the cross-cutting decisions that keep it coherent and easy to build on as it grows.</li>
<li>Design the distributed systems behind the platform for throughput, reliability, and consistency, so the guarantees developers depend on hold up under real load.</li>
<li>Take the hardest, most vaguely specified platform problems and turn them into clear, modular technical designs the team can execute against.</li>
<li>Shape the platform so it holds up whether a person or an agent is calling it, and so both can build and automate their work against Okta for AI Agents.</li>
<li>Set the standard for how the team designs, builds, and operates the platform, and lead deep, constructive reviews that grow the engineers around you.</li>
<li>Operate peer-to-peer with tech leads in adjacent teams to review major architectural decisions and keep the wider platform aligned.</li>
<li>Drive continual evolution in the adoption of AI-native development practices, helping the team rethink how we design, review, and ship software with AI as a core part of the workflow.</li>
<li>Proactively identify and prioritize tech debt; drive improvements in areas beyond feature work - CI/CD, observability, documentation, reliability, and support processes.</li>
<li>Partner with Product and Design to understand and own the desired customer outcome, not just the technical deliverable.</li>
<li>Actively invest in the growth of peer engineers, taking responsibility for raising the technical bar of the team as a whole.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>What you’ll bring to the role</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>10+ years of software engineering experience, with a proven track record as a Principal or Staff level individual contributor.</li>
<li>Extensive experience designing and operating high-scale, reliable backend and event-driven systems, with a strong grasp of the tradeoffs in throughput, consistency, and failure handling.</li>
<li>You can own vaguely specified problems and drive them to a clear technical direction without heavy top-down scoping.</li>
<li>Experience working across engineering, product, and architecture in a fast-moving environment, and a habit of raising the bar for the people around you.</li>
<li>Proven experience defining scalable backend architectures and integrating complex APIs with modern web technologies - including the ability to make and defend architectural decisions with lasting org-wide impact.</li>
<li>Solid understanding of web authentication and authorization fundamentals - how auth flows work, and best practices for securing sensitive user data.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>Architectural expertise: Proven experience defining scalable backend architectures and integrating complex APIs with modern web technologies, including making decisions with lasting, org-wide impact.</li>
<li>Backend proficiency: Deep expertise in building reliable, secure, enterprise-grade software in Java or another type-safe language.</li>
<li>Prior experience leading a team of engineers through a meaningful shift in ways of working - whether around AI adoption, developer tooling, or engineering culture change is a strong plus.</li>
<li>Bachelor’s or Master's degree in Computer Science or related field</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Extra credit</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Experience with identity, authorization, or IAM protocols&nbsp; (e.g., OAuth, OIDC, SAML)</li>
<li>Hands-on familiarity with agentic tooling, MCP, or LLM-facing design, and a sense for how agents consume a platform.</li>

Senior Product Manager - Okta Identity Governance

<div class="content-intro"><p><strong>Secure Every Identity, from AI to Human<br><br></strong>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. This work requires a relentless drive to solve complex challenges with real-world stakes. We are looking for builders and owners who operate with speed and urgency and execute with excellence.<br><br>This is an opportunity to do career-defining work. We're all in on this mission. If you are too, let's talk.</p></div><h2><strong>Role Overview</strong></h2>
<p>AI is rapidly changing how software is designed, built, tested, reviewed, deployed, and operated — and the industry playbook is being rewritten monthly. Okta's Developer Productivity and AI Enablement Engineering teams own building and operating the capabilities that make our engineers fast across the inner and outer development loops. This role is the product counterpart, embedded full-time with that organization, that makes those investments compound by uncovering and prioritizing frictions, bringing the outside in, driving standardize-vs-federate decisions, spreading what works across teams, funding and clearing the path for the best tools, and proving the value.</p>
<p>We are looking for a Senior Product Manager to own developer productivity as a product across Okta's development lifecycle — AI-native and traditional tooling alike. You will start bottom-up: interviewing engineers, managers, tech leads, and architects; mapping current inner- and outer-loop tooling and the frictions; and baselining dev-cycle metrics. From there, you will own the roadmap with engineering leadership; benchmark how the best engineering organizations build with AI; define tooling requirements and/or run the tooling evaluations engineering needs in a landscape that changes monthly; find the teams inside Okta getting outsized results and turn their patterns into playbooks; lead build, buy, integrate, and standardize decisions, including the vision for reducing implementation diversity across Okta and Auth0; clear the security, legal, procurement, and budget paths that slow adoption; and own the measurement that connects investment to engineering outcomes — evidence engineering leaders can take into any room.</p>
<p>This is a highly technical internal platform role that creates value for Okta through a cross-team, cross-industry, cross-functional layer that turns individual wins into organizational capability.</p>
<h2><strong>What You'll Do</strong></h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Product Strategy &amp; Discovery:</strong> Own the vision, PRDs, and prioritized backlog for Okta's internal developer productivity and AI tooling. Treat engineers as your customers: start with deep, bottom-up discovery (dozens of engineer, EM, tech lead, and architect interviews), baseline dev-cycle metrics, and secure tooling budgets with rigorous, ROI-driven business cases.</li>
<li><strong>Ecosystem Validation (Build vs. Buy):</strong> Drive definitive "adopt, build, or pass" decisions. Run hands-on, structured evaluations of inner- and outer-loop tooling — from coding agents and MCPs to build, CI/CD, and code review systems — against strict security and TCO criteria to ensure internal investments amplify vendor capabilities.</li>
<li><strong>Hands-On Execution:</strong> Embed full-time with Developer Productivity Engineering and own the roadmap jointly with its engineering leads. Define MVP scopes, manage sprints, and incrementally ship workflows. <em>You</em> own the strategy and requirements (the what and why); <em>Engineering</em> owns the technical execution (the how).</li>
<li><strong>Adoption &amp; Outcomes:</strong> Own org-wide adoption, clearing security, legal, and privacy hurdles along the way. Measure success by connecting tool usage directly to hard engineering outcomes (cycle time, quality, toil reduction).</li>
<li><strong>Standardization &amp; Lighthouses:</strong> Coordinate the vision for reducing implementation diversity across Okta and Auth0 engineering. Study high-performing teams to see who is getting exceptional results, and convert those patterns into scalable playbooks that shift the broader org from passive AI use to agentic workflows.</li>
</ul>
<h2><strong>What We're Looking For</strong></h2>
<ul>
<li>5+ years of product management experience with developer platforms, developer tools, cloud infrastructure, or AI products.</li>
<li>Experience owning internal or platform products where users have alternatives — adoption driven through product quality rather than mandate.</li>
<li>Strong understanding of modern software development workflows — source control, IDEs, CI/CD, testing, code review, observability, production operations — across the inner and outer loops of development.</li>
<li>Hands-on, current fluency with AI-assisted software development — coding agents, context management, MCP, evaluation frameworks — and informed views on where these tools create leverage and where they introduce risk.</li>
<li>Demonstrated ability to design and run technology evaluations and controlled experiments, and to define measurement systems for developer productivity with judgment about their failure modes.</li>
<li>Ability to engage credibly in technical and architectural discussions with senior engineers while maintaining clear boundaries between product outcomes and engineering implementation.</li>
<li>Strong cross-functional leadership and the ability to influence senior stakeholders across engineering, security, architecture, and finance without direct authority.</li>
<li>Excellent written communication in a docs-first culture; you can produce solid action plans from incomplete, conflicting, or ambiguous inputs.</li>
</ul>
<h2><strong>Preferred Qualifications</strong></h2>
<ul>
<li>Experience deploying or scaling developer tools across a large, multi-org engineering organization — including consolidating divergent stacks and the change management that comes with it.</li>
<li>Hands-on familiarity with developer AI tools, harnesses, APIs, MCPs, and agent orchestration frameworks.</li>
<li>Familiarity with developer productivity research (DORA, SPACE, DX Core 4) and its failure modes.</li>
<li>Experience establishing governance, evaluation frameworks, or spend management for rapidly evolving, consumption-priced technologies.</li>
</ul>
<h2><strong>Why This Role Matters</strong></h2>
<p>AI-assisted development is becoming both one of the largest levers on engineering velocity and one of the largest new variable costs in R&amp;D. The playbook changes monthly, and the organizations that win are the ones that learn fastest from the outside, spread what works internally, and measure honestly. That learning-and-leverage layer doesn't build itself — engineering teams optimizing locally, however well, still leave organizational value uncaptured and accumulate divergent implementations that slow everyone down.</p>
<p>This role exists to capture it: dedicated product leadership that brings engineering the external intelligence, funded tooling, cleared paths, shared patterns, and defensible evidence to build with AI faster than any single team could alone — while deepening Okta's firsthand credibility as the company that secures the AI-powered enterprise for its customers.<br><br>**Must attend in person orientation in person the first Tuesday of employment.&nbsp;<br>**Must go into the local office 2 days a week.<br>**Must work North American hours.&nbsp;<br><br>#LI-MM<br>#LI-Hybrid<br>P26023_3568509</p><div class="content-pay-transparency"><div class="pay-input"><div class="description"><p>Below is the annual salary range for candidates located in Canada.

<div class="content-intro"><p><strong>Secure Every Identity, from AI to Human<br><br></strong>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. This work requires a relentless drive to solve complex challenges with real-world stakes. We are looking for builders and owners who operate with speed and urgency and execute with excellence.<br><br>This is an opportunity to do career-defining work. We're all in on this mission. If you are too, let's talk.</p></div><p><strong>About Okta Secures AI Team</strong></p>
<p>The Okta for AI Agents Team is building the future of digital identity management. The way companies are using agents and allowing them access is undergoing a fundamental shift, enabling teams to move fast while staying secure.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Our North Star is clear: To get AI right, you have to get identity right. We are not just managing identities; we are building the industry's first Identity Security Fabric for the agentic era. As organizations rapidly deploy AI, these non-human entities are acting with access to critical tools, often bypassing traditional perimeters and creating a 'Shadow AI' crisis. Our mission is to move identity from a reactive gatekeeper to a unified control plane, transforming AI risk into business ROI.</p>
<p>We are tackling this by implementing a comprehensive four-pillar maturity model: Discover, Onboard, Protect, and Govern. We are driving innovation by defining the standards for Agentic Identity—including pioneer work with securing AI Agents and support for protocols like MCP. You will be helping us build the infrastructure that allows enterprises to scale AI safely, ensuring every access decision—whether made by a human or an automated agent—is authenticated, authorized, and audited at scale.</p>
<p>We are a diverse team of engineers, product managers, and designers who are bringing Okta’s expertise in identity to define the future of Agent Identity management, focusing on enablement while staying secure.</p>
<p><strong>About the role</strong></p>
<p>As a Staff Software Engineer on the Okta Secures AI team, your mission is to build the industry's first Identity Security Fabric for the agentic era. You will be working on the designs and driving of our unified control plane features, ensuring that we operationalize our North Star: "To get AI right, you have to get identity right."</p>
<p>As a staff engineer, you will actively design, build, and maintain robust backend services. This role requires deep expertise in distributed systems and a commitment to AI-native engineering as our standard. You will rethink backend design, validation, and delivery through AI-augmented workflows, ensuring our platform provides secure, interoperable, and scalable access—enforcing the principle of least privilege for every agent action.</p>
<p><strong>What you’ll be doing&nbsp;</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Proactively shape the technical strategy of the Identity Security Fabric, partnering with leadership to prioritize the work streams for securing AI Agents.</li>
<li>Build the Runtime Policy Decision Point (PDP). Implement the request-time authorization engine at the Agent Gateway and at the agent to resource connection level to intercept and evaluate every agent request against per-agent, per-tool, and per-resource rules.</li>
<li>Design and support authoring from a policy engine like Cedar, schema validation, and evaluation—connecting the admin console's no-code UI builder output with direct API-published policies.</li>
<li>Develop the logic to validate which users a delegated agent is permitted to represent and securely forward the acting user's identity to downstream resources.</li>
<li>Track and shape MCP, OAuth token exchange, and agent identity specifications. Feed lessons learned from production back into the specs and their reference implementations.</li>
<li>Develop Comprehensive Audit Logging. Build secure logging mechanisms to record the outcome of every request (allow or deny) along with the specific rule or reason behind the decision.</li>
<li>Drive continual evolution in the adoption of AI-native development practices, helping the team rethink how we design, review, and ship software with AI as a core part of the workflow.</li>
<li>Proactively identify and prioritize tech debt; drive improvements in areas beyond feature work - CI/CD, observability, documentation, reliability, and support processes.</li>
<li>Partner with Product and Design to understand and own the desired customer outcome, not just the technical deliverable.</li>
<li>Actively invest in the growth of peer engineers, taking responsibility for raising the technical bar of the team as a whole.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>What you’ll bring to the role</strong></p>
<ul>

Staff Software Engineer, SecureAI

<div class="content-intro"><p><strong>Secure Every Identity, from AI to Human<br><br></strong>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. This work requires a relentless drive to solve complex challenges with real-world stakes. We are looking for builders and owners who operate with speed and urgency and execute with excellence.<br><br>This is an opportunity to do career-defining work. We're all in on this mission. If you are too, let's talk.</p></div><h3>About the OIN Team</h3>
<p>The Okta Integration Network (OIN) is the platform that lets Okta customers discover, connect, and manage third-party applications and identity providers — from single sign-on and provisioning to newer, higher-order integration patterns as the ecosystem of connected software (including AI agents) continues to grow. It's core infrastructure: the workflows OIN powers run continuously for a very large share of Okta's customer base.</p>
<p>Our team builds and operates all of OIN — from the foundational data model, APIs, and security posture every integration in the network is built on, to the tools partners and customers use to build, test, and ship integrations, to the systems that power what those integrations can actually do once connected. In practice that spans connector metadata and provisioning primitives, partner-facing tooling, and the infrastructure work that keeps a very large, long-lived system fast, secure, and easy to extend as the network grows.</p>
<p>We're actively expanding OIN's scope beyond its original SSO-and-provisioning core — including new integration patterns as AI agents and machine-to-machine access become part of the identity landscape, and a lower-friction path for partners to bring new integrations into the network. You'd be joining at a point where the platform's scope is visibly widening, working closely with product, architecture, and design to help figure out what "right" looks like as much as building it.</p>
<h3>About the Role</h3>
<p>As a Staff Software Engineer on the OIN team, you'll be a technical leader for a platform a very large share of Okta's customers depend on every day. You'll independently own complex, ambiguous problems end-to-end — from technical scoping through design, delivery, and production operation — partnering closely with product, architecture, and design to help figure out what "right" looks like as much as building it. You'll also be expected to raise the technical bar for the engineers around you, not just deliver your own code.</p>
<p>We're looking for self-motivated engineers who think from first principles, take pride in high-quality software, and are genuinely kind and collaborative to work with.</p>
<h3>What you'll be doing</h3>
<ul>
<li>Lead discovery and technical scoping for new requirements, turning ambiguous product asks into a concrete architecture, phased delivery plans, and credible estimates, in close partnership with product, architecture, and design.</li>
<li>Design and evolve the APIs, data models, and security posture that OIN's integrations depend on, with an eye toward backward compatibility and long-term extensibility.</li>
<li>Drive technical decisions across ambiguous, multi-team dependencies, aligning stakeholders across engineering, product, and other parts of the business when the "right answer" isn't obvious yet.</li>
<li>Modernize and evolve a large, long-lived production system incrementally without disrupting the customers and integrations that depend on it every day.</li>
<li>Maintain a high bar for security, testing, and code quality, including vulnerability remediation and threat-aware design, while keeping a real sense of urgency on customer-impacting work.</li>
<li>Own the production health of the systems you build by writing root-cause analyses when things break, driving follow-through on the fixes, and building the observability that prevents repeat incidents.</li>
<li>Champion AI-native engineering practices by using AI coding assistants and AI-augmented workflows as a core part of how you design, build, review, and ship software, and helping the team adopt them well.</li>
<li>Mentor and raise the technical bar for the engineers around you, and represent the team's technical point of view in cross-functional forums.</li>
</ul>
<h3>What you'll bring to the role</h3>
<ul>
<li>8+ years of professional software development experience, with a demonstrated history of technical leadership and mentorship.</li>
<li>Deep proficiency in Java (our primary backend language) or a comparable strongly-typed backend language/framework, with the judgment to know when and how to modernize a large, long-lived codebase without disrupting the customers depending on it.</li>
<li>Proven experience designing, building, and operating complex, large-scale distributed systems in a cloud environment (AWS, GCP, or Azure), including caching, asynchronous processing, and data migrations at scale.</li>
<li>Real depth in identity and access protocols (OAuth 2.0/OIDC, SAML, and/or SCIM) and the security instincts that come from having built systems that other companies' software authenticates against.</li>
<li>Experience designing and evolving APIs and integration frameworks that external developers or partners build on, not just internal consumers. You think about backward compatibility, versioning, and developer experience as first-class concerns.</li>
<li>Comfortable driving technical direction across ambiguous, multi-team dependencies. You can align product, architecture, and other engineering teams around a plan when the "right answer" isn't obvious yet.</li>
<li>A security- and compliance-aware mindset — comfortable working on systems where correctness failures have real customer or compliance consequences, not just availability ones.</li>
<li>Applies AI tools thoughtfully across the development lifecycle, from code generation to review to testing, and can help a team adopt them well, not just use them personally.</li>
<li>Excellent written communication — you bring structure to ambiguous problems and drive them to closure using first principles, in writing that others can act on without you in the room.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Extra credit</h3>
<ul>
<li>Experience integrating with large, specialized third-party enterprise systems that carry their own strict compliance or data-handling requirements.</li>
<li>Experience running or contributing to a self-serve developer platform or partner/ISV ecosystem.</li>
<li>Front-end proficiency (React or similar) is a big positive.</li>
<li>Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience.</li>
