Okta Architect
We are seeking an experienced Okta Architect to design, implement and evolve secure, scalable identity and access management solutions across a complex technology environment. You will provide architectural leadership across workforce and customer identity, ensuring that Okta capabilities support business objectives, security standards and regulatory requirements. This is an opportunity to shape identity strategy, establish best practice and influence stakeholders across technology, security and business teams.
Your responsibilities will include developing target-state IAM architectures, roadmaps and reference designs; configuring and integrating Okta Workforce Identity and, where appropriate, Customer Identity solutions; and overseeing single sign-on, multi-factor authentication, lifecycle management, adaptive access and privileged access integrations. You will assess existing services, identify opportunities for improvement and lead the delivery of robust, highly available identity solutions. The role will also involve creating standards and patterns, reviewing technical designs, supporting incident and problem management, and maintaining clear architectural and operational documentation.
You will bring substantial experience designing and delivering Okta solutions within enterprise environments, including practical knowledge of SAML, OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, SCIM, REST APIs and directory technologies such as Active Directory and LDAP. Experience integrating cloud platforms, SaaS applications and modern DevOps practices is essential, together with a strong understanding of zero-trust principles, identity governance, security controls and data protection requirements. Okta certifications, such as Okta Certified Administrator, Consultant or Architect, would be advantageous. You should be confident communicating complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences, able to challenge constructively and comfortable leading work across multiple teams. Strong analytical, problem-solving and stakeholder management skills are required, alongside a pragmatic approach to balancing security, usability, cost and delivery timelines.
