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 for AI Agents Okta secures access for 20,000 organizations and billions of users. Okta for AI Agents extends that work to the agentic shift. Deploying an AI agent is not like deploying traditional software. You are putting professional work output into production, and it needs deep integration, continuous tuning, and change management. Every agent needs an identity, a scope, an audit trail, and a way to be shut down when it goes wrong. Most enterprises have not built this yet. We are. We hire builders who see the cracks in enterprise agent identity that everyone else has learned to live with. The Role You embed inside four to five of Okta’s most strategic enterprise customers as their dedicated technical partner for agent identity. You sit alongside their identity, platform, and security engineering teams, write production code in their environment, and own the technical outcome from prototype through production. You are a builder-consultant. You go past architecture diagrams to code, debug, and ship bespoke agent identity solutions inside the customer’s environment. You ship secure agents faster for the customer, and you feed real field insight back to Okta product engineering. Responsibilities Become the customer’s trusted technical voice on agent security. Sit in their standups, design reviews, and incident response. Earn a seat on their architecture review board and security council for agent risk decisions. Architect and deploy with the cust
