This is an opportunity to do career-defining work. We're all in on this mission. If you are too, let's talk.

ABOUT THE ROLE

Are you an experienced, results-driven product leader with a builder mindset who is passionate about delivering frictionless enterprise security experiences? Join Okta as a Group Product Manager to spearhead the delivery and operational scale of Okta’s Privileged Access Management (PAM) product suite—built upon the robust Okta Identity Cloud for scale, simplicity, and seamless enterprise integration.

In this role, you will be a critical execution engine, driving a high-velocity roadmap from concept to delivery. Success demands a sharp product intuition, an ability to analyze conversion and adoption metrics, and the cross-functional gravity required to strategically prioritize amidst competing demands from various teams. You will collaborate closely with leaders in product architecture, engineering, design, and go-to-market functions to ensure our security solutions meet the evolving needs of modern cloud-first enterprises.

JOB DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

• Product Delivery & Execution: Ensure the timely, predictable, and within-budget delivery of the PAM product roadmap. Partner with scrum teams, engineering leadership, and technical program managers (TPMs) to consistently deliver features on time.
• The Builder Mindset: Work closely with architecture, engineering, and design to specify platform-first experiences that delight customers at scale. Rigorously prioritize across multiple investment areas within the security domain to drive maximum velocity.
• Data-Driven Outcomes: Partner with analytics teams to track product usage metrics and conversion funnels, directly tying feature implementation to improved security outcomes and business growth.
• Cross-Functional Orchestration: Manage highly complex dependencies across corporate stakeholders, working seamlessly with Engineering, Design, Product Marketing, Legal, Compliance, and Sales to safely and swiftly clear the path to market.
• Customer Engagement: Engage deeply with enterprise customers, prospects, and internal stakeholders to capture detailed requirements and validate problems. Ensure beta programs capture high-quality feedback that is rapidly incorporated into product iterations.
• Team Leadership & Ownership: Maintain a customer-success-focused mindset, actively assisting the field with critical requests. Manage the overall health and morale of your project teams, fostering a culture of accountability and candor while mentoring early-in-career product managers.

• Demonstrated experience with product growth and scale, specifically using experimentation, data analytics, or conversion metrics to drive adoption.
• Ability to produce solid action plans and clear directions from often incomplete, conflicting, or ambiguous inputs.
• Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills, capable of building consensus across conflicting priorities and presenting clear execution paths to leadership.
• A strong alignment with Okta’s core PM values: Team-first mentality, an unyielding ownership mindset, resilience, and a learner’s humility.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field; MBA or equivalent experience is a plus.
