The Identity Team

The Identity team’s mission is to strengthen Okta’s position as the leading Identity-as-a- Service solution through identifying and resolving risks to the employees, product, and most importantly, our customers. With the ever-increasing pace of cloud application adoption, companies are struggling to find ways to accurately assess risk and act at the speed of their business.

The AI Identity Architect Opportunity

Reporting to the VP of Identity & Access Management, this role will be an AI Identity Pioneer, not just an IAM expert. Your "been there, done that" experience in securing autonomous agents at scale is your superpower. You’ve seen how traditional OAuth flows break under agentic pressure, you’ve felt the pain of "Secret Zero" in a LangChain loop, and you know exactly where the industry’s current tools fall short. At Okta, you won't just implement security; you will use your battle-tested experience to drive the product features needed to secure the next generation of identities.

The AI Identity Architect's mission is to own Okta’s enterprise identity strategy for autonomous AI agents. As Customer Zero, you will implement Okta on Okta—validating identity patterns at production scale, feeding direct input into product roadmaps, and partnering with business units building internal agentic systems.

What you’ll be doing 

Product Vision & Architecture (The "Ratified R0")

• Drive the Roadmap: Act as a primary stakeholder for Okta’s product teams. Translate your real-world experience securing agents into prioritized feature requests and product requirements.
• Target State: Define a multi-year roadmap for Non-Human Identities (NHIs) and AI Agents aligned with Zero Trust (NIST 800-207) and Okta’s Secure Identity Commitment.
• Posture First: Use ISPM (Identity Security Posture Management) to discover unmanaged AI agents and eliminate "Identity Debt" across the enterprise.

Cross-App Access & Brokered Delegation

• Agent-to-App Connectivity: Architect secure Cross-App Access patterns where agents act as intermediaries between enterprise systems.
• Delegated Authority: Refine how user identity is "brokered" to an agent (e.g. OAuth2 Token Exchange), ensuring the agent never has more power than the human user who triggered it.
• Session Scoping: Implement context-bound, short-lived tokens to prevent lateral movement by a compromised agent.

Okta Customer Zero -- Validate and publish patterns using Okta primitives to secure the AI lifecycle for:

• Okta Identity Engine & Auth0: Define how AI agents prove their identity within AuthN/AuthZ core concepts, implementing rigorous protocols for secure access delegation like OAuth2/OIDC, mTLS, and SPIFFE/SPIRE for workload attestation.
• Okta Privilege Access: Implement JIT/JEA access and ephemeral, vaulted secrets for agent tool-use.
• Okta Identity Governance & Workflows: Automate the Joiner-Mover-Leaver (JML) lifecycle for agents, including automated certification and revocation.
• Fine-Grained Authorization: Implement ReBAC for intent-bound decisions (e.g., "Can this agent access the Finance API on behalf of the CFO?").
• Serve as "Customer Zero" by architecting and stress-testing internal AI security frameworks, translating real-world deployment lessons into a continuous stream of public-facing white papers, blogs, and technical guides to steer industry best practices.

AI Ecosystem & Tech Stack Integration -- Define how Okta identity is woven into modern AI orchestration layers:

• Orchestration: Secure identity patterns such as  LangChain, LangGraph, AutoGPT, CrewAI, LlamaIndex, and Semantic Kernel.
• Architect secure connectivity to AI model providers such as Azure OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, Google Vertex AI, OpenAI API, and Anthropic.

What you’ll bring to the role

• The "Been There" Factor: Proven track record of securing AI agents and non-human identities in a production environment. You have a deep understanding of the "identity gaps" in current AI frameworks.
• Experience: 7+ years in IAM/Security Architecture; proven strategy work across workforce, customer, and Non-Human Identities (NHIs).
• Deep knowledge of the core protocols OAuth2/OIDC (especially Token Exchange), SAML, mTLS, JWT, and Model Context Protocol (MCP).
• Hands-on experience with Modern Identity framework SPIFFE/SPIRE.
• Ability to author Architecture Decision Records (ADR) and influence at the VP/CTO level, while simultaneously acting as a peer to Product Management.

And extra credit if you have experience in any of the following! 

• Prior work shaping identity strategy for autonomous/agent systems, multi-agent delegation, or brokered access patterns.
• Exposure to policy-as-code (OPA/Cedar) and service-mesh identity.
• Certifications such as CISSP-ISSAP, CCSP, or TOGAF are welcome but not required or expected.

Inspire11’s Privacy Policy: https://www.inspire11.com/privacy-policy/  

U.S. Compensation & Benefits  

Compensation at Inspire11 
Inspire11 follows Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Equal Pay Act of 1963, the Illinois Human Rights Act, the Illinois Equal Wage Act, and the Illinois Equal Pay Act of 2003. We believe that people performing the same role at the same level, with similar levels of ability or experience, should be similarly compensated. We also believe that the most critical factors driving compensation should be an Eleven’s skill, experience, performance, responsibility, and effort. We may also consider an employee’s length of service, relevant education, training, or certification, and the requirements of a specific job. We may also consider whether the cost of living or competition for talent in specific markets requires adjustments in compensation for employees in those markets. Our goal is to fairly compensate all our Elevens based on these factors within the Company’s financial ability.   

Compensation may be increased or decreased at Inspire11’s discretion based on an employee’s performance reviews, market conditions, and the Company’s financial performance. Inspire11 will always notify an employee in writing before any change is made to their compensation.  

Bonuses 
We may allow employees in Sales, Recruiting, or Leadership to earn periodic bonuses based on sales, revenue, client-specific or practice-specific targets. These targets are communicated to each eligible employee via offer letter or annual update. All such target-based bonuses are calculated based on the Company and an individual’s periodic performance and will only be awarded if: (a) the employee is meeting performance expectations and is an employee in good standing of the Company; (b) the target is met; and (c) the Company’s current financial performance and market conditions permit the bonus to be paid out. All periodic bonuses are discretionary and are earned only when paid out.   

Each year, the Company will decide whether the Company’s financial performance, market performance, and business realities allow it to create an annual bonus pool. If the Company decides that annual bonuses may be awarded, then the Leadership Team will grant annual bonuses to employees in good standing based on the same factors discussed in the previous paragraph while also considering employees’ diligence, performance, expertise, skill, judgment, and experience. To be eligible to participate in this annual bonus pool, an employee must be hired by no later than October 1st of the preceding year. Annual bonuses and merit increases may be prorated based on hire date. Employees eligible for target-based periodic bonuses are not eligible to participate in the annual bonus pool.   

Options or Other Equity in Inspire11 
Inspire11 has a legacy program that allowed certain high-performing employees to purchase shares of the Company through an affiliate. The Company also has a newer program that grants options annually to high-performing employees based on their performance reviews, their managers’ recommendation, and leadership approval. These options have a vesting period associated with them.

U.S. Compensation & Benefits  

Compensation at Inspire11 
Inspire11 follows Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Equal Pay Act of 1963, the Illinois Human Rights Act, the Illinois Equal Wage Act, and the Illinois Equal Pay Act of 2003. We believe that people performing the same role at the same level, with similar levels of ability or experience, should be similarly compensated. We also believe that the most critical factors driving compensation should be an Eleven’s skill, experience, performance, responsibility, and effort. We may also consider an employee’s length of service, relevant education, training, or certification, and the requirements of a specific job. We may also consider whether the cost of living or competition for talent in specific markets requires adjustments in compensation for employees in those markets. Our goal is to fairly compensate all our Elevens based on these factors within the Company’s financial ability.   

Compensation may be increased or decreased at Inspire11’s discretion based on an employee’s performance reviews, market conditions, and the Company’s financial performance. Inspire11 will always notify an employee in writing before any change is made to their compensation.  

Bonuses 
We may allow employees in Sales, Recruiting, or Leadership to earn periodic bonuses based on sales, revenue, client-specific or practice-specific targets. These targets are communicated to each eligible employee via offer letter or annual update. All such target-based bonuses are calculated based on the Company and an individual’s periodic performance and will only be awarded if: (a) the employee is meeting performance expectations and is an employee in good standing of the Company; (b) the target is met; and (c) the Company’s current financial performance and market conditions permit the bonus to be paid out. All periodic bonuses are discretionary and are earned only when paid out.   

Each year, the Company will decide whether the Company’s financial performance, market performance, and business realities allow it to create an annual bonus pool. If the Company decides that annual bonuses may be awarded, then the Leadership Team will grant annual bonuses to employees in good standing based on the same factors discussed in the previous paragraph while also considering employees’ diligence, performance, expertise, skill, judgment, and experience. To be eligible to participate in this annual bonus pool, an employee must be hired by no later than October 1st of the preceding year. Annual bonuses and merit increases may be prorated based on hire date. Employees eligible for target-based periodic bonuses are not eligible to participate in the annual bonus pool.
