• Drive end‑to‑end integration projects: prioritize opportunities, coordinate engineering and product resources, and accelerate time‑to‑value 
• Use AI and automation tools to streamline partner lifecycle management and scale personalized engagement (e.g., onboarding, health checks, co‑sell enablement).  
• Track partner performance, report on KPIs, and optimize program tactics for partner growth and retention  
• Represent Okta externally at partner events, briefings, and executive meetings

What You’ll Bring

• Creative, strategic thinker who is able to invent repeatable partnership plays and tailor high‑touch experiences where it matters
• Comfort with data and metrics: build dashboards, track adoption, and tie partner activity to revenue

• Excellent communicator and presenter; proven ability to build credibility with partner executives and internal leadership

Why You’ll Love Okta

• Work at the intersection of identity, security, and AI with a team building the future of secure automation
• High autonomy, collaborative culture, and direct impact on strategic partnerships and revenue
• Competitive compensation, benefits, and learning opportunities
