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.
Okta has consistently expanded our product portfolio beyond SSO to include lifecycle management, multi-factor authentication, device management, and a flexible platform for mobile and web application developers to help our customers manage users both internal and external to their organization.
We are looking for a strong product leader with a technical background, good business sense, and an ability to partner closely with other Product Managers, Engineering, User Experience, Sales Engineering, Customer Success, and Product Marketing teams to ship products our customers love. Does working with customers to deeply understand what customers need and delivering products that address their pain get you out of bed in the morning? Are you excited and passionate about building the future of Identity and Security and having an impact at massive global scale? If so, we’re looking for you.
As the Product Manager for Interfaces, you will be responsible for how Okta’s customers extend the Okta product beyond its out of the box capabilities. This starts with a deep understanding of Okta’s customers and product use cases, and where customers want more customization and integration. You will then be responsible for developing a roadmap of APIs and Admin interfaces focused on unlocking maximum customer and business value. You’ll be serving both Admins and Developers, so while you always start with the use case and customer pain, Platform thinking is in your DNA and you know what it means to deliver a great developer experience. The success of Interfaces means that customers with increasingly more complex and forward looking requirements can always adopt Okta and connect everything.
