Okta is seeking a Senior Product Manager to lead the product strategy and execution for Okta for AI Agents, a foundational new pillar focused on securing AI through identity, permissions, and auditability. As AI agents increasingly act autonomously on behalf of humans and organizations, robust identity governance has become critical.

You will design, build, and launch core features spanning agent identity lifecycle management, dynamic permission scoping, delegated authorization, and comprehensive audit trails. This includes shaping underlying trust frameworks and APIs that power secure workflows.

REQUIREMENTS: - 5+ years of technical product management experience in enterprise-scale SaaS products, or equivalent background demonstrating core PM competencies - Strong knowledge of Identity and Access Management (IAM) protocols such as OAuth2, OIDC, and SAML - Deep understanding of API security and the developer experience for integrating security services - Analytical and decisive mindset; ability to drive action even with incomplete or ambiguous information in the rapidly evolving AI landscape - Excellent communication skills; ability to work cross-functionally with research, design, engineering, and customer success teams - Technical background: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or equivalent experience that allows you to influence technical design decisions PREFERRED EXPERIENCE: - Hands-on experience with AI/ML frameworks or building products that leverage Large Language Models (LLMs) - Experience with developer-centric products, such as building with SDKs, APIs, or no-code/low-code integration platforms - Familiarity with Zero Trust architecture and how it applies to non-human entities and automated workloads - Prior experience in a "Zero to One" product environment, launching new products from initial concept to GA - Advanced degree in a technical or business field
