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.

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

Own the identity, delegation, audit, and kill-switch architecture end to end, and coach their engineers on the patterns.
• Engage senior leadership. Brief the CISO, CIO, identity leaders, Chief AI Officer, and principal architects. Translate token-exchange flows into board-level agent risk, and AI gov
