Company mission
To improve the connections between people and tools to make companies more productive and secure.
Role
Who you are
- You have craft: This matters most. Considered typography, intentional spacing, polished micro-interactions, details that show someone genuinely cared. We're looking for someone with a refined sense of design taste/aesthetics and a deep appreciation for the details that create a polished user experience
- You build: 6+ years of design experience, but somewhere along the way you started prototyping in the browser, shipping side projects, or writing production code because you wanted the interaction exactly right
- You have a real AI practice: Not experimentation, but an actual workflow. You have opinions about where AI tools help and where they fall short
- You design for developers: Tools, APIs, CLIs, SDKs, and admin dashboards. You know "simple" means something different for this audience
What the job involves
- When everyone on the team can generate UI, the designer's role shifts. You become the person responsible for strong systems thinking, taste, quality, experience, and being the voice of the customer. You hold the quality bar when speed is pushing everything toward "fine."
- Prototype at volume: Use AI tools and code to explore dozens of directions fast, then narrow based on what works and what solves the actual problem
- Design in the codebase: Work within our React and Next.js environment to refine components and interactions where users will actually experience them
- Simplify complexity: Turn authorization models, SDK patterns, and security flows into interfaces that feel clear without losing precision
- Raise the craft: Help the broader design org see what this way of working looks like in practice. We're all figuring this out together
Application process
- In your application, please include a link to your portfolio with password (if protected). We prioritize a review of your design craft and any examples of your work in code
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. It aims 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.
