Okta jobs, judged for you, free

What they do

Okta calls itself the World's Identity Company. An identity says who a person or program is and what it may use. Okta secures every kind, from AI agents to customers, employees, and partners. Its Workforce and Customer Identity Clouds give secure access, sign-in, and automation. Auth0 is its sign-in platform for developers. Okta says it helps companies use AI safely.

What they value

• Love our customers.
• Always secure. Always on.
• Build and own it.
• Drive what's next.
• Raise your own bar, and turn action into traction.
• Thrive in change. Move fast. Simplify. Repeat.

Where they hire

Bengaluru has the most Postings, then Toronto and San Francisco. Others are in Chicago, Bellevue, Washington DC, New York, Dublin, London, Sydney, Tokyo, and Singapore. Most roles are hybrid, and several ask for two days a week in the office. Some US federal roles need US citizenship or a security clearance. One Singapore role offers visa sponsorship.

Teams and roles

Engineering is the largest group on the board.

• Software engineering: engineers from senior to principal, and engineering managers, on applications, core identity, infrastructure, and the Auth0 tools for developers. Site reliability engineers, who keep the services running, and software engineers in test also hire. So does an Emerging Tech group.
• Okta for AI Agents: forward deployed engineers work inside large customers and build identity for their AI agents.
• Sales: sales development representatives, enterprise, strategic, and corporate account executives, and sales managers.
• Solutions engineering: sales engineers who lead technical evaluations of Okta for customers who may buy it.
• Post-sales: technical account managers, customer success managers, professional services, and developer support associates.
• Product: product managers, product designers, and UX researchers, who study how people use the product.
• Business technology (Okta's own internal software), finance, marketing, legal, and recruiting.

What they look for

Okta wants builders and owners who work with speed and urgency. It says it does not need someone who checks every box. Engineering Postings ask for 5 or more years on large systems for senior roles, and 8 or more for staff roles. The tools named include Node.js, React, Go, Java, Kotlin, Swift, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, AWS, and Azure. Engineers use AI coding assistants and must check and secure the code they produce. Engineers take turns on call, ready to fix problems in the live service. Sales engineers need 8 or more years of pre-sales work, the technical work that helps close a sale, and knowledge of identity security. Sales roles ask for outbound prospecting, which means contacting possible customers first. They also ask for a sales method such as MEDDPICC, a checklist for judging a deal. New graduate roles take people who graduate between summer 2025 and fall 2026.
