About Okta and Auth0

Okta builds identity products for secure access, authentication, and automation.

Auth0 helps organizations build secure customer experiences and is part of Okta.

The posting describes identity as foundational to enabling AI agents to authenticate, access resources, delegate authority, and operate within auditable boundaries.

Opportunity

The Product Architect, AI will help define Auth0 and Okta’s direction in agentic identity, secure AI application development, and standards-based access for agents.

This is described as a senior, strategic, hands-on role spanning product, engineering, security, developer relations, design, go-to-market, and customers.

The role combines long-term strategy, platform design, customer engagement, standards and open-source work, and occasional prototyping or production-quality coding.

What you’ll do

  • Define strategy for building, operating, and securing AI agents and agentic applications.
  • Shape agentic identity capabilities for authentication, delegated authority, resource access, trust, and auditable boundaries.
  • Define secure access to APIs, tools, data services, and MCP servers for authorized agents.
  • Translate strategic opportunities into product bets, architectural principles, requirements, and durable platform capabilities with Product and Engineering.
  • Help design and implement identity capabilities for agent-to-resource and agent-to-agent interactions.
  • Assess emerging technologies and standards, including MCP, agent-to-agent protocols, agentic commerce, authorization frameworks, and workload identity.
  • Track AI models, agent frameworks, orchestration, evaluation, observability, and developer practices; assess which changes are durable.
  • Identify industry shifts and communicate their implications internally and externally.
  • Engage strategic customers to understand architectures, identify unmet needs, validate product direction, and support secure implementation.
  • Partner with Security, Legal, Privacy, and Trust teams on secure, responsible, compliant, usable capabilities.
  • Represent Auth0 and Okta through technical content, speaking, customer conversations, standards work, and open source.
  • Build prototypes, reference implementations, and demonstrations using technologies such as Node.js, React, and Python.

Role expectations

  • Bring real experience building AI-powered and agentic systems.
  • Be able to work across strategy and implementation, including vision, platform primitives, customer engagement, and prototypes or production-quality code.
  • Bring curiosity and a disciplined approach to tracking fast-moving AI technologies, standards, and developer practices.
  • Be able to assess industry developments and clearly communicate their implications.
  • Engage strategic customers and collaborate across product, engineering, security, legal, privacy, trust, and other teams.
