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’s Workforce Identity products are the foundation for enabling customers to increase internal and external collaboration by providing friction-free and secure access to on-prem and cloud apps from anywhere and any device; for improving IT agility by simplifying identity management and saving time on cumbersome processes such as employee/partner/vendor onboarding and password-resets; and for strengthening security by reducing the risk of identity-centric cybersecurity attacks. The Workforce Identity developer advocacy team’s goal is to turn developers all over the world who build with Okta into Okta champions by proactively enabling their success. 

 

As a Senior Developer Advocate for Workforce Identity, you represent Okta to external developers. You will establish relationships primarily with developers already using Okta or in the process of onboarding. You will craft resources to help them build or integrate with Okta, including sample apps, videos, technical guides, and workshops. You will engage with our customers and 3rd party integrator community, championing their interests, accelerating their development, and translating their feedback into actionable product insights.

 

Job Duties & Responsibilities

  • Create code demos and sample applications to showcase Okta product features
  • Compose blog posts and videos on how developers can incorporate Okta into their identity solutions
  • Answer developer/integrator questions found on social media, forums, and comments made on Okta posts
  • Speak at technical events, support workshops/labs/hackathons, and lead conversations on identity
  • Utilize your “developer zero” mindset to test product usage scenarios
  • Capture and drive feedback to respective product teams

 

Minimum Required Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities:

  • You have 5+ years of experience as a developer - a plus if you have any experience in developer relations.
  • Strong technical understanding of REST APIs, HTTP, SDKs, and authentication/authorization protocols (OAuth2, Basic Auth, OpenID Connect, SCIM, ...)
  • Server-side development (Java and/or .NET a plus)
  • You not only enjoy creating developer content, you are eager to share your findings with other developers, whether online or at in-person events
  • Great verbal and written communication skills. Able to adjust your message for different audiences
  • Deep understanding of developer communities and forums of which you are actively engaged
  • You are self-driven, work well remotely, while maintaining strong visibility internally and to external developer communities
  • You are known to be a strong contributor and a collaborator who takes initiative
  • You are passionate about developer topics, and enjoy helping others solve problems
  • You are always learning and curious, keeping up to date with developer trends - a plus if you are a trendsetter yourself
