Who you are

This is a great opportunity if you have some experience building technical content and want to grow your skills in Identity/Access Management and product storytelling
1–2 years of experience in product marketing, or technical writing — or equivalent experience.
Ability to explain complex topics simply through writing, video, or demos
Familiar with design or editing tools like Figma, Adobe Premiere, or Camtasia
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present technical information to both technical and non-technical audiences
Experience creating technical content, such as blog posts, tutorials, and documentation
Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced environment
A degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field is helpful but not required
Experience with identity and access management concepts (e.g., OAuth, OpenID Connect, SAML) and/or platforms (e.g. Auth0, Okta) is a plus

We're looking for a Technical Product Marketing Specialist (TPMS) who enjoys working hands-on with technology and explaining it clearly. In this role, you'll help bring Okta's identity products to life through demos, content, and tooling that showcase how they work
You’ll configure the Okta platform for different scenarios, integrating with 3rd party applications. You'll also help create marketing assets — from videos to walkthroughs — that support product launches, customer adoption, and sales conversations
Write technical content such as blog posts, how-to guides, internal enablement, and demo scripts
Create and record product demos using tools like Camtasia, Figma, Adobe Premiere, or After Effects
Collaborate with product, product marketing, and sales teams to support product launches and customer conversations
Learn and explain platform capabilities and IAM use cases, including authentication, authorization, user management, governance, privileged access management, and orchestration.
Develop and maintain a deep understanding of Okta’s IAM platform, including its features, benefits, and target use cases
Create compelling technical content, such as demos, tutorials, and best practices guides, to help developers integrate and utilize Okta’s IAM solution
Deliver technical presentations and demonstrations at conferences, webinars, and customer meetings
Work closely with product management and engineering to translate technical product information into clear and concise marketing materials
Provide technical enablement and training to sales teams and partners
Gather and analyze feedback from sales and customers to improve product messaging and marketing strategies
Stay up-to-date on the latest trends and technologies in IAM and the broader identity management space

Our take

Okta started off as an identity company where organisations, large and small, could tap into the company to have a single sign-on interface to access all cloud applications now centralised. Okta has since expanded to provide identity management at the device as well as the server level.

The new approach towards network security is increasingly based on identification and authentication, and Okta is on track to become the go-to vendor in the space. They aim to do so by developing products that enable people to access applications and other tools more smoothly and securely than ever before.

Okta has taken strides towards expansion through significant employee growth and shuffling executive leadership. The company has also made lateral moves such as tackling governance concerns, opening up new paths for revenue.
