Secure Every Identity, from AI to Human 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. This is an opportunity to do career-defining work. We're all in on this mission. If you are too, let's talk. Role Overview 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. We are looking for a Staff 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. 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. What You'll Do Product Strategy & Discovery: 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. Ecosystem Validation (Build vs. Buy): 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. Hands-On Execution: 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. You own the strategy and requirements (the what and why); Engineering owns the technical execution (the how). Adoption & Outcomes: 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). Standardization & Lighthouses: 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. What We're Looking For 5+ years of product management experience with developer platforms, developer tools, cloud infrastructure, or AI products. Experience owning internal or platform products where users have alternatives — adoption driven through product quality rather than mandate. 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. 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. 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. Ability to engage credibly in technical and architectural discussions with senior engineers while maintaining clear boundaries between product outcomes and engineering implementation. Strong cross-functional leadership and the ability to influence senior stakeholders across engineering, security, architecture, and finance without direct authority. Excellent written communication in a docs-first culture; you can produce solid action plans from incomplete, conflicting, or ambiguous inputs. Preferred Qualifications 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. Hands-on familiarity with developer AI tools, harnesses, APIs, MCPs, and agent orchestration frameworks. Familiarity with developer productivity research (DORA, SPACE, DX Core 4) and its failure modes. Experience establishing governance, evaluation frameworks, or spend management for rapidly evolving, consumption-priced technologies. Why This Role Matters AI-assisted development is becoming both one of the largest levers on engineering velocity and one of the largest new variable costs in R&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. 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. **Must attend in person orientation in person the first Tuesday of employment.

Secure Every Identity, from AI to Human 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. This is an opportunity to do career-defining work. We're all in on this mission. If you are too, let's talk. Security Engineer, Customer Identity, Advanced Threat Protection 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 Workforce and Customer Identity Clouds enable secure yet flexible access, authentication, and automation that transforms how people move through the digital world, putting Identity at the heart 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. The Role We seek a knowledgeable and research-focused Security Engineer to join a new Advanced Threat Protection team within Auth0 Customer Identity. This role does two things at once: it researches how attackers will use AI against identity systems, and it researches and builds how we use AI to defend our products, our infrastructure, and — most importantly — our customers' tenants. This role is a key member of the Security team embedded within the Customer Identity product unit and works across multiple functions to get ahead of emerging AI threats, supporting the growth of our global Customer Identity business. We are an engineering-focused team that seeks to stay on the cutting edge of security technology and the threat landscape. In this role you won't just assess our current AI security offering — you'll research what we should be protecting customers from one to two years ahead, turn that research into concrete protections, and help put AI-assisted defenses into the hands of the teams and customers who protect their tenants. In this role you will work as part of a globally distributed team of talented engineers who share a passion for security and enjoy solving complex problems at scale. This role works closely with and alongside the members of the broader Okta Security team in support of Okta's company-wide security strategy and Okta’s Secure Identity Commitment . This is a level-agnostic description; scope, autonomy, and leadership expectations scale with level (Senior through Staff). Responsibilities: Research and lead how we can use AI to protect customer tenants — both proactively (hardening posture before an attack) and during active incidents (accelerating detection, triage, and response) Research and build protections against novel AI attacks that Auth0 and Auth0's customers can be subjected to — adversarial ML, prompt injection, abuse of agentic protocols (MCP, A2A, UCP, and emerging equivalents), model and data poisoning — as they apply to identity systems and customer tenants Partner with the identity security teams to help customers strengthen their own tenant security posture through AI-assisted defenses Research the emerging AI threat landscape and translate it into a forward-looking (12–24 month) view of what we need to protect ourselves and our customers from — then architect, recommend, and build the tooling to get there Review and harden Auth0's AI security offering, identifying gaps and recommending mitigations before they're exploited Partner across a globally distributed product-aligned team of security engineers to turn research into shipped protections for customer tenants Establish and execute a long-term engineering and threat research roadmap for Advanced Threat Protection aligned with company-wide business and security goals. Own high-impact security architecture designs and decisions across Auth0 and Okta Customer Identity infrastructure to support long-term threat resilience. Drive cross-functional security strategies and partner across engineering, product, and enterprise security leadership across Okta to influence platform-wide standards and policies. Actively coach, mentor, and level up Senior (P3) engineers and team members, fostering technical excellence, research discipline, and leadership growth.

Secure Every Identity, from AI to Human 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. 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 Secures AI Team 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. 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. 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. 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. About the role 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." 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. What you’ll be doing Proactively shape the technical strategy of the Identity Security Fabric, partnering with leadership to prioritize the work streams for securing AI Agents. 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. 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. 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. Track and shape MCP, OAuth token exchange, and agent identity specifications. Feed lessons learned from production back into the specs and their reference implementations. 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. 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. Proactively identify and prioritize tech debt; drive improvements in areas beyond feature work - CI/CD, observability, documentation, reliability, and support processes. Partner with Product and Design to understand and own the desired customer outcome, not just the technical deliverable. Actively invest in the growth of peer engineers, taking responsibility for raising the technical bar of the team as a whole. What you’ll bring to the role Operates well beyond basic AI tool usage - understands how to apply AI meaningfully across the full software development lifecycle, can evaluate and adopt new AI tooling with good judgment, and is able to establish practices and bring a team along.
