Senior Director, Product Management Automation (Workflows and AtSpoke)
Companies all over the world and across every industry are adopting new applications and technology at breakneck pace. This is enabling rapid innovation but also putting IT teams under incredible pressure to manage it all at scale. When they fail, users can’t access what they need to do their work and security is compromised.
Okta has launched a new product to empower IT and Security teams with more automation. More automation to eliminate repetitive manual work, setup security alerts, and unlock magical experiences for their users. Unlike existing automation or integration products that require custom code and integrations, Okta Workflows will empower even non-technical users to create “if this then that” flows in minutes.
With lots of early success, we are looking for an innovative and seasoned product leader to launch and grow this product. Success means inspiring a product and engineering team to build game changing products, making your customers successful and delivering on this huge business opportunity. If you are passionate about the intersection of consumer experiences and large scale enterprise products, we are looking for you.
